For the ancient Greeks, the 9 Muses were goddesses who served as the inspiration for all art, science, literature, in short, every form of creativity. 

 

Sometimes the Muses were considered to be primordial, that is, existing from the beginning of time; sometimes they were thought of as the children of Zeus and Mnemosyne (memory personified). 

 

Candy fits the bill, especially the Muse of lyric and love poetry, Erato, who inspired the fine arts. Simply read some of my love poetry and you'll get my drift!
