An Introspection

Recently I've been reading Paradise Lost by John Milton. Considered by many to be one of the greatest epic poems of the western world. Suffice to say I am only 8 chapters into the poem out of 12. The poem, its prose and style, has opened up a path of inner creativity that has raised my intellect. On the other hand, with the opening of the intellectual faculties, there has been great introspection into my soul. It was as if I was able to re account past knowledge I have learned. Such is the power of poetry.
