Every poet finds their own muse – the irresistible figure that draws the artist (author, writer) toward the light of creativity. To some, muse is a guardian spirit or force who is a source of inspiration for creativity.
Write me a poem. Write me several poems. A muse me.— N’Zuri Za Austin
If you look a dog in the eye too intensely, it may recite an astounding poem to you. ~ Jean Genet
A dog, I have always said, is prose; a cat is a poem. — Jean Burden

To elevate the soul, poetry is necessary.
~Edgar Allan Poe
Poetry is breathing words that give a reader pause. ~Ankita Singhal
All great poetry is dipped in the dyes of the heart. ~Edith Sitwell
Real poetry, is to lead a beautiful life. To live poetry is better than to write it. — Matsuo Bashō
