Appreciate the simple gift of inspiration ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Appreciate the simple gift of inspiration Perhaps it may take a while to wake up Perhaps you may never sleep and dream Relaxation’s funny thing.You can or you can’t Ever mounting stressful situations blight a day Coming to hauntingly appear all thru the night I try to memorise a favourite poem by heart Appreciate the simple gift of inspiration then The rhythms of that favourite will give tempo. Eventually the tempo will give the inspiration
Tempos will give you the medleys in your head. Head becomes a power housing for the brain Establish then that white light in the centre
So relax into a meditative state of mind. I appreciate the simple gift of inspiration Meditation holds the key it links you with all Poets of the bygone ages that you’ve read. Like a spark of genius , you’ve come alive Eventually you may write fifty lines of poetry
God given inspired poetry and it rhymes In the space of a few minutes a masterpiece Fortunately the simple gift of inspiration is free The freedom that you hold is a key to the city
On certain good days it is the key to Xanadu. For do you remember the dome of Kubla Khan
In Seventeen ninety seven the poet Coleridge Noting his poem from a drug induced dream Simply wrote this epic poem. But lost half a Poem when a person from Porlock knocked And interrupted the genius and he forgot lines Reiterating the old saying dream and not make A dream your master , think and not make Thoughts your aim, to meet with triumph and In disaster, treat the two imposters the same! Onymous with the simple gift of inspiration Never anonymous be forever simply proud.
