Poetic Stumblings
or
What inspires you the most?
Written on July 8, 2013

It can start with a title
Popping into my head
After I’ve heard
Something somebody said.
Or I’m on vacation
Seeing the sights
And some type of ambiance
Hits me just right.
Or the person I know
Has a trait or hobby so “cool”
That imagery flows through my head
Like pools of poetic drool.
Something in my past
Pulls me backwards in time
To reflect and write
In free verse or rhyme.
For you it may be different
What inspires you most.
The best poets in town
Can create interest in toast.
Who knows why we do this?
Why the words spill from our souls?
Are we ruled by our brain waves
to create our own form of gold?
Or do we ride our brain waves
Honing a gift from above
As we share this with others
With warmth, light and love?
