As a writer of poetry, I find inspirations of my poems from many things in life, firstly, I am thankful to God for this gift of talent, as to me God is the best poet there ever has been or to be. Before I begin to write, I purge my mind and soul while listening to various music and I read through many different writings of famous poets, then a phrase for a title inters my heart and mind, and as I write down the title of the poem, then flows through my heart and mind unto the page a new poem is born for me. Poetry to me is being harmonic with nature, as all poets write what others only dream of saying and poets write them down for all to read. Sometimes I wake up with three or four poems going through my mind, some happy and some sad. To where it is dark a poets dream can shed light.

How nice... I especially love the part about God being the best of poets... I totally agree... he does what the rest of us couldn't even dream of coming up with...

I really like how you start before you write. Most of my work comes from something that just happened. Sweet inspiration!

Joe I am the same I have always loved God since I was a little boy, I need nothing more than him but never condem others who need more. I also like dreams and write about them from time to time. Poetry books also give insperation thanks for sharing Joe. richard
