On Poetry

An idea is formed through conception;

mind becomes impregnated with muse.

I give birth to poetry despite labor pains,

delivering this tiny bundle into the world.



My new creation now hushes me to sleep,

whispering soothing lullabies into ears

once riddled with hurting and heartache,

cradling me from formerly flowing tears.


Rewrite 2012

An idea is formed through conception;
mind becomes impregnated with muse.
I give birth to poetry despite labor pains,
delivering this tiny bundle into the world.

My new creation now hushes me to sleep,
whispering soothing lullabies into ears
once riddled with hurting and heartache,
cradling me from formerly flowing tears.
