My Muse My Muse On the sandy beaches of my solitude Skies of gray, and stillness of air I search the shore, in pensive mood To re-discover a mermaid there. She once came to me on worded wings That lit upon my soul. Revealing things that could have been Things to make me whole. She took me to a distant shore A place of "should have been" Her magic kept me mesmerized With a dream she'd come again She departed without a fond adieu Her words painted on my mind I wonder if she ever knew She left her art behind. Now, I walk along the water's edge All the footprints washed away Seeking her magic's knowledge Finding her clues along the way. A sea of glimmering silver and turquoise Blonde seaweed that curls and flows Seashells that make an echoing noise of the precious moment, magic knows. My thoughts, my prayers, my devotion Someday her return to the magic land Til then, I'll hold her hand across an ocean Til then, I'll feel her heartbeat in the sand. . |

What a lovely and poignant poem, Jiminy~~ I like it when a poem changes meaning for me.. When i wrote this it was about love and loss, and a promise not to forget. Hopeful but distant I re-posted this....because it became a reminder ...."to stop and smell the roses" Nothing is ever lost that can be found.
