JUST WHERE


JUST WHERE

 

just when and where

does my inspiration come alive?

for I know;

it could be from here,

and there,

and everywhere,

so, friend,

just look out a window pane;

and see what’s close at hand

to inspire the soul of one,

and never be afraid to engage,

and hear kind words

from elderly folk, to lift you up.

 

then crouch down,

for you to be at even height;

to listen to a child

who’ll speak of worldly wisdom free?

and freely engage the advice

of cripple man,

and those you see

who get around with cane,

or in chair

and be not afraid of them take place.

 

and if need be;

read!

read the daily natter,

of traumas, strife and delusions,

or where it could heard

on podcast or radio,

and I think not!

when a good book will suffice

where much research

will enhance and stimulate there,

of what has been offered

through the pages,

or read the word on offer

from Genesis to Revelation in their books.

 

and now you know

this is where

my inspiration emanates from.
