Inspiration

Inspiration is what keeps me going, when determination has run out

Inspiration keeps me hoping, for all the things I think about

Inspiration often shows me rainbows, when the clouds won’t let the sun come out

Inspiration is what drives me, when I don’t have the will to fight

Inspiration is what holds me , when I go to sleep at night

Inspiration is something within me, that I can’t do without

Inspiration is a blessing from God, and I know this with out any doubt

Inspiration is something wonderful, for me to think about

Inspiration falls on me, just like raindrops hitting the ground

Inspiration will always be my friend, when all the rest have played out

Inspiration just keep guiding me, on the right page, taking the best route

Inspiration  knows me, my heart , my soul, my mind

Then god help you when inspiration runs out.

Sorry for that cynical take on a very good poem. It's personal, inspiration is a flighty thing for me. Perhaps you mean something higher than what I take for inspiration, but sometimes all the beauty, goodness and truth in the world only leave me facing the ashes of truth. cheers, Jess
