Calliope looks down on me
Bringing inspiration to me
To write some new words
As they arrive in my mind
To be projected out to the ether.
Words of love and wonder
Showing the world my life,
My wonderful life of time
So very long on this world,
But still here,
And still writing.
My life that is all well
And will go on for longer
With Calliope looking down on me
And bringing me more words,
More words like these to share,
To share with you all.

- Comment from author about the poem: Calliope is the Muse who presides over eloquence and epic poetry; so called from the ecstatic harmony of her voice. Hesiod and Ovid called her the Chief of all Muses.

Good write Gold. You know Calli? I can't be related to her - ecstatic harmony of my (singing) voice? heehee.
Thank you Orchi, she is always looking down on me.
