Accidental Poet

A Blank Page

Empty and bare

The page awaits

For input from my Muse

Of which my heart relates

 

But there

Upon a blank page

It’s ready for the dance

My Muse’s favorite stage

 

For even a dream

Still unrealized

With room to grow

A place to materialize

 

When she reaches deep

Within my aging heart

Bringing out my best

To the page we are of part

 

And so, of a blank page

I may often stare

Of pride that’s yet to be

Not just words it wears
