Poet and the Blank Pages

A poet cannot bear

To stare at the blank pages

For eternity

It’s like a mutual attraction

Summons the poet every time

To pour feelings of the heart

The deepest secrets of the soul

Muse seems to be generous

Blessing you with inspiration

The right words to portray

Subtle feelings and desires

The poet’s uneasiness is palpable

Until the words have found meaning

And expressions they deserve

Carefully crafting imageries

So vivid, reflecting life unknown

Potent feelings flow

More blank pages wait eagerly ©
