My Muse Comes As The Wind

My Muse Comes As The Wind


***


I have a Muse

I've come to know 

She does not stay

She always goes


Seductive beauty

Blows me away

Pray when gone

She'll return today


When she comes

She chooses time 

Appears as a mountain

Which I must climb


On top of her peak

I see far and wide

Her star of love 

She's my guide


If I get attached

Feel her leaving

Creativity fades 

I begin grieving


Within suffering

See her eyes 

Holding me

So my art 

Does


Heart kisses

Your touch

Inspires 

Me to sing 


When you're gone

What do I feel? 

I ask myself

Was it a dream?

Is my muse real?


Yet I know you'll return

Patiently I wait

Your love awakens

Opens my heart's gate

Following my Muse's

Divine melody

I know when 

Creativity

Comes

She is my

Destiny

And who or what has been doing this searching and looking anyhow, like a gerbil spinning on a wheel? Those Buddhists,  I tell you, they appear so peaceful  (sometimes ) but are secretly a radical group of self deniers, how wonderfully subversive.  Maybe I have been a Buddhist all along and just realized it. But then I look for the Buddhist and Bam!  Same problem, there's nothing there. I must confess enjoying my nonexistent self today, uh oh, that could mean trouble. Now that I have realized my life is just a dream am wondering what comes next, or if there is a "next." Maybe I will keep looking a little more to be sure no self is to be found. The way things are going I might end up a Buddhist. Now not only can I not find myself, I can't find anyone else either.  I close ...

Springs Healing *** I’m down and I’m low You won’t let me know What you’re really feeling I opened up my heart As I did from the start Now I think you’re leaving You say it’s not the end That I am your true friend Yet I know your lying So why don’t you just go Before the winter snow I can taste this dying I don’t want your blood Or the coming flood Of the tears you’re crying Because only in our end Will our hearts mend And wake up in springs healing *** David Penn Arndt 2022 *** Artwork Cynthia Re Robbins

Lead me gently to your enchanted lands

Lead me gently to your enchanted lands 🕊️ Oh in our dreams how we hold each other close I whisper in your ear of all the women in the world It's you I love most. A woman like you I believe it not possible, It could not be, but then I found myself drowning, so joyfully, blissfully within your inner seas I fell upon my knees It's you babe In all in every way I wish to please My love's real baby It's not something That will vanish Disappear Leave Blowing out Space and time Loves pure Holding each other Verse meter rhyme Would you take my hand Lead me to your me Enchanted Promised Land Because then my dear How vast My love For you abides You would fully Completely Understand 🕊️ David Arndt  Sirens Of Titan  Down on the Horizon  Line (c) 2022 🌹 Gustav Klimt
