LIFELINE POETRY PROMPT | WEEKLY PROMPT: CREATIVITY AND MUSIC

The Magic of the Soul

Poetry Inspired by Lifeline Prompt — Creativity and Music

It can be said that music is the heartbeat of the soul.

It is the very essence of creativity.

There is one particular song that never fails to inspire me — Perfect by Ed Sheeran and in this video, he travels to Andrea Bocelli’s home in Tuscany to perform a duet. To me, this represents creativity on so many levels.

Plus, there is something so soothing about this music that sets the table to free the mind and fill the soul with creativity. If you listen to this song, I hope you can see why it has this effect on me.

Grace Notes: Many thanks to editor Sahil Patel of Lifeline publication for this wonderful writing prompt.

Here is my poem, inspired by the music I listened to.

The Magic of the Soul

Creativity is the magic of the soul. It is a song, a duet. A poem. An idea. A work of art. It is a mirror, a reflection, sometimes broken, the maelstrom of writers, the fragrance of midnight, the paranoia of genius, the freedom of thought, the perfection of love, the burden of obsession.

With inspiration, creativity can fill an empty glass. It moves like a river dance. It is moonshine and champagne, lemons and lemonade, rain drops unzipped from entangled clouds, flashes of lightning and rumbles of thunder, a time when our imagination runs wild and free, messy and imperfect.

Creativity is unbridled, embroidered, an unexpected intrusion, an intoxicating infusion.

When all else fails, it is a time to fall in love with the moon and run away with the stars. Creativity is being able to see clearly in the dark.
