A Tiny Inch In Time

Perhaps I've always been a poet 
And a teller of the tales 
Through many far-flung lifetimes 
And long dramatic trails

For maybe just one moment 
A tiny inch in time 
I may have held you spellbound 
With a tiny bit of rhyme

Maybe you were with me 
One day I was inspired 
Saw the spark that lights up 
My eyes when I am tired 

A bit of inspiration 
A leaf, a flower, a tree 
A sunset in the evening 
A breath of freshening breeze 

Maybe I've always been a poet 
But it took you to inspire 
The poems that show my hidden heart
That set the page on fire
