I took a walk with Inspiration
His stride, much shorter than mine today
His gaze, drawn to all the yellow dandelions poking through the grass
His stride, much shorter than mine today
His gaze, drawn to all the yellow dandelions poking through the grass
I call to him, “Come now, Inspiration,
catch up, it’s getting late.”
His little steps quicken
A caterpillar
emerges from the blades
and wriggles across the path
Inspiration giggles and crouches down to watch
I turn, and call again
“This way, Inspiration,
we’re running out of time.”
He bends down lower
his cheek brushes the earth
he waves good-bye to his friend
jumps up and continues along the path

“You can’t wait for inspiration. You have to go after it with a club.” ~Jack London
Ahhh, so true. Well said, Eileen.

Love this! Inspiration is everywhere in creation.
