There is nothing more alive,
no moment is livelier,
more fulfilling...when
realizing and recognizing
a serendipitous moment;
it jolts the heart,
it is so unexpected, that
other matters are forgot.
Not too long to wait, and then
mind is suddenly alive with
sparks of inspiration...the hand
and heart are raring to take a stand
an inner force, a powerful surge,
is set to take charge.
Heart beats fitfully; fingers tap
as the mind takes time to grasp
this momentum...soon, sweet, bitter
verses, overwhelm mind and paper.
During unholy hours,
the wind's bizarre whispers
are difficult to interpret,
yet, all will be transparent,
all will soon be clear
like glass or a mirror
when dark gives way,
late troubled night segues
to a bright, newborn day.
