The Muse

_______________________
Poets dream
in metric schemes
and often write
their thoughts despite
the possibility
someone may see
what hides inside
behind their eyes.

Yes, poets feel;
their minds do reel
with tumbling words
like singing birds
at dawn's daybreak
the muse will make
the poet dream
in metric schemes.

YES!

lady bug ..i love this because when i first wrote my first poem, i was really nervous to show anyone...i think it took me 3 months before i did. (except my husband , i showed him)

i like the flow of this..almost seems like it could be a song.
sweet!

Enjoyed reading this, thank you,

You expressed it well. Yes, we (dare?!) bare our hearts to the whole world.
Art, in whatever form, MUST be shared to be fully appreciated.
