All it took

Poetic Dan



Inspiration is drawn from everything and nothing


You will do it today and it will probably go unnoticed


Even if it does you'll probably find it hard to believe


That all it took was and an open heart with authenticity

  • Comment from author about the poem: Yesterday while I was was taking a stroll and practice, hoping to not see many people. Three wonderful lady's gave me a wave as I sat there and played, as I walked back around there they were again. As I approached we all had smiles, one asked if I could play a song. I went with the easiest one I know and played nervously letting go, they helped me more than they will ever know. Then my final inspiration came from a fellow poet, giving all they have to give. What a beautiful word this truly is! Pat yourself on the back because you are part of it.

    "I once was lost but now am found, was blind but now i see"

    How perfectly appropriate.

    "Through many dangers, toils and snares I have already come;
    'Tis grace has brought me safe thus far. And grace will lead me home"

    Wonderful message for you, me and all in those finely penned lyrics.

      Thank you buddy I have not picked it up for over a year and this was one of the first songs I want to learn as it's never left my spirit for the first time I heard it as a kid.

      I thank you so much for the encouragement to get me off my own lifes story. Its a slow change but I can feel the difference between the two, it's one thing to know and another to feel.

      Always appreciated

        My thoughts were something like this.... you've got a new head on these days and you know it, but you are very self centred with your writing, that keeps you on the edge of self doubt which would be good to leave behind .... so.... with your new head... write about other stuff with your new self/world - knowledge/love and maybe that will give you a greater confidence about yourself as you are relating to things outside of yourself...... i'm writing this as i'm about to dash off out to work...i hope it makes sense.... if it doesn't then pester me lol.

          Perfectly my friend and thanks for helping my reply to nevill.

          For the first time I don't see someone saying self centered as a negative, even more so from a person I trust!

              May that open heart remain that way to allow all the good in life into it.

                Inspiration generally blindsides you, and that's it's beauty.
