The Origin


Inspiration, being mentally stimulated to do something creative

I look at that sentence and I still wonder what that means 

Could inspiration come from seeing the trees stay strong in the storms

Or maybe how the birds work long days to build nests

Does it come from your mom's cooking that floods that house with its aroma 

Maybe it comes from the battle scars on your grandpa's arms

Could it come from the sunset setting over the trees 

Or does it come from the gentle breath of the wind 

Does it come from the buzzing of the crickets in the woods 

Where does each of our inspirations come from

A secret each one of us will keep within our hearts forever
