A Glistening Simplicity

I wondered! Holding the warm, steaming mug of coffee in my hand. What surprises awaited me in, Poetry Soup Land. I fantasized! A future with impressive poetry writes. But realized, that will never be, It’s not me, and does not sit well with me. I accepted! My simplicity and that works best for me. I took off that which shall never be, and took a walk to the shining sea! I realized. I was blessed each day of my long life. Most will never see my age, they think, being young are free from strife! I experienced. More sorrows, pain, joys than many they will ever feel. And thus keep my poetry forever, quite simple and real. I lived. Through the histories of yore they pen so eloquently about. I choose my past and my present to write about. 6/3/2021

Hello Panagiota, a poetess writes from her heart with feelings. You do that very well. Write what you feel because you are good at it. Hugs Darlene xxoo

You've written many impressive writes, you write what matters to you and no one else. Ive found poets on here of all levels writing and enjoying the gift they've been given, go at your own pace, I dont call myself a poet, I let others decide. Tom

Sorry, my friend, you fit the definition of a poet. Excellent poetry raises us to the sublime. You do that! Truth + Beauty+ Honoring Goodness. You are a Poet Laureate in my eyes. Writing a weather report is not poetry. It’s nice, But it’s simply a weather report. )) Thank you for respecting my works. I am not here to impress. You don’t realize how good you are. Accept your Greatness. You do not come from love of arrogance, and I appreciate that talent. Humility is you. Plenty here are pure ego. With love and all my respect, Pangie Xx

A lovely piece Pangie. That's what good poetry is. We write what we know and feel. Good job. God Bless, JB

It's all about the journey. As Longfellow said, "Into each life, a little rain must fall." My biggest fear is dying in the middle of a poem. That wouldn't be right. They will have to pry the keyboard from my dead cold hands. Continue your journey my friend.
