light up....my inspiring muse

To say I am blessed could never acknowledge the measure how you've touched me in all my days

Your voice has changed where wisdom plays, filled my senses overflowing magnificent ways

Sight

A match to the fire within, a torch to see through darkest day

a caress in times of sorrow, a kiss to brighten my day

a hug when solo feels alone, a fire to burn, ignite my dreams

a cloud to give me shelter, a river for my soul to free

an ocean with tides of life

far, wide

Ever-spacious, in-between

Whispering

Forget about tomorrow, love today

I am here for you always, never gonna fade

we are one in light and passion of display, feel me always

Never gonna fade away

Make a choice, as many as you'd like

When life just doesn't feel quite right

Visualize a cloud so bright with your hue

Paint your greatest wish, so we can make it true

When love arrives, plant it in your chest

Stay clear, bold, optimistic, and wise

Be true to your love, never faint eye

For those who weaken, attract their demise

Unafraid

Ready to blaze the fire you showered, greatest desires

How grateful, forever I remain

You shared your love and guided me by the mane

Should you leave tomorrow, I will bare no sorrow

For you filled me right, with universal sight

My love for you, is forever true

If you leave me today, I know It's time

To walk my own way

In open arms glowing, fever

Compassionate, patient

Surrender

Joy

For the love you've groomed

Will continue to

Flower

Into timeless journey, forever more

Passion filled through your sacred lore

We've become one, painted desire

You've set my life in blazing fire

There are no words to express

My chakra's filled, like a treasure chest

In my heart, you are the mould

of planted seeds within my soul.

Fantastic beginning to this poem - wonderful play on words, thought provoking - then you take a slight turn & continue with expressing emotions of love, pure real intense & passionate verbiage chosen to release the poem into flight.

I love it, wish I could find a guy with that kind of heart.

i typed a great long thingy and it has gone again.....

Here we go again. O.K.ish. determined to type out my poem i have ready at my side, but am so distracted by everyone elses work, such a buzz in the creative air at the moment, i want to catch hold of it, and be inspired. So you got some sleep that is good..... and the gym you off there today.

I hear you, I have been having some funky glitches with comments, too.

I am also feeling the burning inspiration around. It has been for a while..For a litttle bit, I tried contoling it due to being confused from it's source, though it only brought pain. Now, I feel completeness with where the source is flowing from and pray I did not hinder the purity of it.

Can't say I slept much, yet I was in a restful place..

Look forward to your new works. :)

so where is the source coming from.... it's a fine balance with this writing thing isn't it.... can be heavy on the heart and head......

Glad you are more rested, and at peace.... a writers life is such a happy one, and all that.....

Do i say happy birthday. What you doin' today to celebrate. I will put up my poem now.

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s profile image

I*n*v*i*c*t*u*s  says:
2 weeks ago

My source is here with all of us on HP. :) so true it can be heavy on the heart and head, well said.

Thank you so much for the Birthday wishes... I means a lot! :) I am 37 today, yet wierd thing is I keep feeling younger every year, strange, eh? My father says that will change at 40, yet I am going to continue feeling my youthful nature.

Typically I do not feel such an emphasis on celebrating, though I think that being in a new country, with all my loved ones in a different one has me yearning for the physicality connection...

I have spent most of my time here in this new place on HP! Which is great, yet there is something missing sometimes when you cannot enjoy those special on a one to one basis!

Look forward to your poem. \:)

Chose somebody wonderful,. why did i think you were older, i mix people up, as you never know who is who.... i cannot believe it only 37. You are a baby. maybe hub pages is a stepping stone and a learning experience for us both, and so many others. Ha you just need a woman all men do, but the right one, don't leave hubpages yet though i need to pick your brains a bit more yet, have a lovely day, you are one special person you really are honestly. You are appreciated

You have a tremendous way with words! I don't know what some of the lines mean- I'm sure that'a half the point. What does it mean to me? This poem makes me hope that someday I can be this type of guiding, mentoring source in someone's understanding of life and love.

Thank you for this.

so you could do a rant..... not giving anything away...... Imagine something that made you angry however long ago, not a relationship thing,,,,,, and just tell the person how you feel kinda really angrily. It would be so different from your usual stuff, as it would not be poetry, not be kind, and certainly not red, a bit of yellow if you must but only a bit. It would probably be quite funny
