each poet dreams of a secret retreat, a refuge, isolated a solitary place in which to write, to enfold oneself in bliss and peace, perhaps where waves crash on rocks, or a garden, or a tranquil cemetery yes, that is where I find my poetic voice amongst the mossy cemetery stones

I really like this soulful poem, Constance. You have so beautifully expressed the "secret garden" we seek where poetry is born. And, each of us finds inspiration in a different setting. Sending you abundant blessings in this season of abundance.

Dear Constance, I would love to be living those kinds of scenes that you have inked so eloquently. Sometimes they are there for the enjoyment and sometimes they are so hard to find. Well inked! - Blessings, My Dear Friend, Daniel
