My Muse

I prefer to buy CDs of my favourite artists even though I could easily download their music off the internet. I really would like to support them in my small way so I persist in buying CDs. A wonderful source of music is Amazon.com. Even though you cannot hear the whole song on their website they do have a sample of each song and I've found many new artists that I love quite recently. I found  Sarah Jarosz today and I loved her voice and style. Apparently she is as old as Taylor Swift. I cringe as I write Taylor Swift's name on my blog for the second time. Sarah is lovely and fresh as a dew drop with a passion so deep it moves me. I loved two of her songs and here they are. I'm only including the lyrics of 'My muse' because it reminded me of Anshuman. So enjoy! Run away by Sarah Jarosz

My muse by Sarah Jarosz

I spin around in your love
In a place of wonder
I want to wander
With you, my muse

In a dream of carousels
On waves in caravels
Collecting seashells
For you, my muse

I peruse and conjure
Sit and ponder
Then go under
The blanket of your words
The way I feel
The things I sing
The songs I write
The joy you bring
To me my muse

Stillness surrounds me
But you have found me
And I have found you
My muse

In a night of silence
I’m settled by your sounds
In a dream of quiet
Contentedness surrounds

I peruse and conjure
Sit and ponder
Then go under
The blanket of your words
The way I feel
The things I sing
The songs I write
The joy you bring
To me my muse

Delightfully exhausted
Willingly this way
Always yours, always yours I’ll stay
With you, my muse
