ANOTHER ALICE

It was my constant searching, that I was able to find her

The joy of inspiration flows, I was able to let go

The inspiration was sweet, filled my cup

But I drank it all up. Gulp after gulp

I should have sipped and savored it

now my cup is empty, 

not a drop left to temp the tongue

She was the pinnacle of what maid me see, see who I could be

The swelling in my heart I felt reading every word that was hers

How do I become that bold, to show every thing I hold

Just one word for me, it would all be clear to me

I listen intently, but nothing for me

To feel that one word, would knock me off my feet

She is my image of mother-nature

Her warm glow, her earthly beauty, feeds the inspiration in me

She looks just like the words she say, I want to be that way

In my dreams I see her in a garden planting seeds

Is one of those seeds to be planted in me

So that it will grow and take root, to one day enjoy the fruit

Nourished by the inspiring juice

I look to find another Alice, I know I won’t find her

I just want to find that inspiration she gave me

Some where in my travels I lost it

I don't know where I left it

I dream of where it may be

Maybe it isn't lost at all, maybe it's me

I'm lost and it's looking for me

It is some where waiting for me

Alice will you find me
