Debra Squyres's Blog
 Hello to all:
I am called Debra from the great state of Louisiana. I started writing poems in 2010, though I had written a few as a young squirt many, many...years ago
I have trouble wrapping my mind around the idea that I might just be a poet...but as a writer of poems, perhaps I should accept the title given.
I have had no formal training and it shows at times, though I do venture out of free verse sometimes to broad my skill and to also plump up a few brain cells lol
Punctuation is my nemesis (yes I had to look up the spelling lol) as well as spelling at times. I offer my words to those who wish to read in hopes of leaving a smile, a thought, a new idea or simply a verse or two to make one smile.
Blessings to each of you and many thanks to those who drop by my offerings of poetic verse. Know I will drop by your offerings as well.
Blessed be !!

Fabrics of Words We are the weavers, the weavers of words… Our tools in trade are inventive pens in hand With these tools we create yards of unique blends as colorful threaded words are created from within and woven into the fabric of our creative world. We are the weavers, the weavers of words… With closely woven strands of soul we spin our wares Blending from our senses and lifes golden threads Some soft, some rough, some marked with tears All found in the cloths of our creative world. We are the weavers, the weavers of words… We ply our trade on the eyes of like minds We spin our verse yards and send them soaring across the miles of wires and signals sharing our art with other writers weaving words
