Old Welsh triad:

Three things enrich the poet:
myth
creative power
and a store of ancient verse.

I would say for myth, it's the material people think is important about life, where they are, what motivates them.

You have to have creative ability if you are going to write.

The old verse teaches you so much about writing!
