Invoke Your Muse

I just spent the last half hour enraptured by a Monarch butterfly feeding on my wildflowers. She's still there as I write this, probing and seeking out the juiciest parts of the flowers. As I watched, I got to thinking about a poem I wrote and the lines kept tumbling through my head. Blessings to you on this beautiful summer day, may this poem provide inspiration....


Invoke the Muse

Lay me down 
in a field of green.

Gossamer wings
flutter near.

Like a honey bee
enter me,
expose sweet nectar center.

Before pulling free
dance with me,
lead and I will follow.

Star of divinity
constellate me,
reveal:
a song,
a poem.
I’ll engrave it all—
Lay
me
down.
