Angelic Muse

Story by Crae Foxx on SoFurry

,


Now as I stand here

Thinking of what say

My mind floats astray

To that fateful day

When I was down on my luck

When I had no home

And I was all alone in my own dome

My life came to a dead stop

I hit rock bottom...

I think about my life

And regret Fate's choice

Then I suddenly hear a voice

And I look up as I was confuse

As I see the blinding figure

The figure of a muse

I shield my eyes as I beheld thee

And then she said to me

'Are thou blinded by what ye see?'

I ask "But how does one

see such beauty and grace?"

As she came down to me and

Looked into my face

For hours she examined me

And narrowed in the space

She then layed her hand on my cheek

And I felt a change inside

As her soft skin

Made contact with mine

I opened my eyes

To this angel devine

'The pen is mighter than the sword.'

She said as she handed me a quill

And with the quill

Came into me a new age

As I started to write words

That filled every page

I just wrote and wrote

Wtih a burning passion

I wrote every feeling and meaning,

Every word and action

About foxes, wolves,

And different species

I wrote all I could

About these fantasies

I wrote for what seems

Like centuries

Then I stopped and looked

At my book full of stories

I looked up at the muse

And said "All is well."

And it was at that moment

That is, that I fell

Down from the clouds

Which she was atop

I closed my eyes

Wishing the fall to stop

And when I opened them up

To see what fathomed

I was laying in my bed

And I thought about what happened

I felt something in my hand

And I looked to see

I saw the feathered quill

That the muse had given me

And it was from that

Moment on I knew

That I am a writer

And writing is what I do
