The Joys of Inspiration

our birthday bash in a series of Stave stanzas

Our birthday party resonates,
as Writing.Com celebrates
twenty-five years providing these
spectacular activities,
designed to stimulate your brain,
so joys of inspiration reign.

I do not know what I would do
if not for The StoryMaster 's crew,
combining such dedication
with vivid imagination,
and looking through the windowpane,
where joys of inspiration reign.

The interchange between friends
in our community transcends
the barriers imposed by space--
a culture so many embrace.
Our members have so much to gain
when joys of inspiration reign.

So many innovative ways
energize productive phase,
thanks to The StoryMaster 's coding skills,
as he keeps adding more frills.
Our leaders always make it plain
that joys of inspiration reign.
