The MUSE
Today is a thrill
to be at dog hill
with a friend.
I feel a connection
that won't end.
She has the mind
of a girl who is kind
and a restless spirit
that just won't quit.
She has a need
to express herself
which for a muse
is a form of wealth
and another way
to express mental health.
Robin and Lucy
two beautiful girls
one is my dog
the other strings pearls.
The pearls are rhymes
poetry so sublime
that as I sit I
forget about time.
I can still feel space
'cause there are dogs in my face
but on a day like today
I have little to say.
I have much to feel
55 is no big deal
But age is a cage if
you act like it's real.
If I were a poet
I'm not sure I'd show it.
I've come to the park
to try to amuse
a girl and a day
that I don't want to lose.
But time presses on
there's no way to stop it
so I'll enjoy the moment
relax and just sit
meditative and creative
a desire to share
too much attraction
I should beware
I walk every day
with my dog to the park
I'm always alone
sometimes I feel dark
Today is different
I'm sitting with a friend
a beautiful girl whose energy
has no end.
Today is my birthday
a smile on my face
If I were an artist
her profile I'd trace
I'll have to settle for a memory so clear
A day in my life I'll always hold dear
