My Muse

My Muse

By R.e. Taylor

It was long ago

A couple lifetimes I guess

I gave my heart to a woman

Beautiful and gracious

How could I not fall for her

Kisses and touches lead to love

And love brought something out

I began writing her words of love

Poems which were not very good

But she loved them

And I loved her

To this day when I write a poem

Her face, her eyes and her voice

Echoes through my heart

And I am inspired
