Oh Muse,


 Birds with their beautiful voice,

inspire singers to continue with their legacy.

My inspiration comes from a deeper source,

from a place that I lived before I was born,

love, art, and life surrounded that place, 

it was given a women, who fought death,

She lived to see her cocoons turn into butterflies.

In ancient times being a muse, inspired many 

Today, after centuries of her birth 

she is inspiring me, a lost traveler, to find my way 

in this confusing and unknown world.

Oh muse, I should continue

with that legacy instilled in me.
