WHO`S YOUR MUSE? A POEM

Ah, Melpomene,

tragedy I sing,

my life a gesture

to love`s suffering.

 

Your eyes embrace my soul

seduction so complete,

Oh muse of tragic poetry

It`s in your arms I weep.

V.  You maybe should get another muse?  This one or Springsteen is making you too unhappy!  Here for you whenever you call, but I'm letting you know ahead of time, I'm going to start my own sad poet society ... You can enroll for first-up. :)

I always come away from your poetry touched and ready to weep. Well, not always weep, but these ones lately. just so touching.
Mayhap its my mood. but i feel safe here. Understood even. ~Sooz

Oh muse of sweetest triumph
Fill this soul so deep
of lasting, fair contentment
stillness, calm, and sleep
