Inspiration can be elusive, and even change over time. As artists of words we experiment and play until we find something that inspires us, and we hope that in explaining and condensing and editing our feelings into a poem we can inspire others in turn. Each word we add to the universe is something that wasn't there before. Each person we inspire can then go and inspire more people, like a fire that spreads to fill the world with joy. These poems are filled the inspiration of their authors, and I hope they fill you with meaning as much (or more!) than they did me.
