The Whispers of Inspiration - Poetry
She whispered to the wind
Please take my fears away
Let them float into the sky
Towards the dawn of day.
She whispered to the sun
Let me go into the light
As I fly towards sunset
Let me shine into the night.
She whispered to the moon
Let me sparkle on the earth
Dancing in the moonlight
As our souls have been re-birthed.
She whispered to the stars
Let's sprinkle colours of magic
and shoot across the dark night
As something quite majestic.
So every time you look up and see the sun, moon and stars.
Know each soul is in the wind
Whispering words of love

This poem came to me as I was walking to get coffee one cold early morning, as though it was whispered into my ear from an unknown source of magic.
Inspiration sometimes feels as though it’s communicating with us from another dimension. It surrounds us like white light and the energy of it flows through our bodies and vibrates our souls. It always comes when we least expect it or when we need it the most, to remind us that life can be beautiful even in the darkest of times. As we hear the melody of inspiration playing in our minds, an idea is planted and suddenly creativity blossoms into the world. Ready to be picked and passed on to the next living being
Inspiration is found everywhere but only if we open our hearts to see it. It bares its soul in the warmth of the sun and hits us like heavy rain. It reveals itself through moonlight shining upon the darkness of the night. We feel it beneath our feet as we walk on the soil of the earth and pick natures creations. It’s found in the connections we make with people, the stories we hear and the moments we share together. Inspiration gives us hope that our lives have meaning and purpose. It falls around us like leaves in autumn and when the wind moves through the chimes on our door step, we hear it. It shows up for us when the birds sing to each other outside amongst the trees and when we watch a candle flicker in a dark room.
The feeling of inspiration is the excitement of a rainbow showing up after a beautiful storm. The feeling we get when we loose ourselves in a good book, the tears that roll down our faces while watching a telling story or when we are completely entranced in the presence of someone playing music. It is the feeling of falling in love for the first time.
Inspiration connects our souls together like an umbilical cord. We were born to inspire and to feel inspired. To share our feelings, emotions and creations with the world and each other.
So next time inspiration whispers in your ear, write it down and release it into the unknown. As you never know who may hear it whispering its energy through the dimensions.
Inspiration is trying to send me messages in every form it can — through dreams, through portents, through clues, through coincidences, through déjà vu, through kismet, through surprising waves of attraction and reaction, through the chills that run up my arms, through the hair that stands up on the back of my neck, through the pleasure of something new and surprising, through stubborn ideas that keep me awake all night long . . . whatever works. Inspiration is always trying to work with me.”
