A Poet's Realm

There is a magical realm in my world, where I feel no fear. A place of unique experiences, in which I never shed a tear. It's here that my senses are heightened, time and time again, where my imagination has no bounds with paper and my pen. A princess rescued and dragons roar in mystical lands I create Here, I write fairytale endings and determine a creature's fate In this amazing domain I view things without using my eyes. As a poet, I can conceive anything that ingenuity can devise. Sometimes, when I'm fast asleep, my heart travels in flight along paths of fanciful dreams, so I pick up my pen and write about things I see as I journey through my psyche's porthole penning marvelous adventures that burn deep inside my soul Maybe now you can understand this wonderful gift I possess In this magic place I am free from disappointment and stress. Alone with my thoughts I find beauty in balanced symmetry. Can you comprehend why I find pleasure in writing poetry? *Entered into contest with kind permission of my co-writer* November 1, 2021 DO- IT (DUETS) Poetry Contest Sponsored by James Edward Lee Sr

I like this poem, Jenna, and its rhyme. The emotion is one of pleasure derived from the act of writing. Being able to write a poem is a gift.

And who is this co-writer? You tickle my curiosity. Lovely poem. Perhaps I should emulate you and write closing my eyes.

A superb collaboration Jenna, like you I write at ungodly hours when it's peaceful. Hope your birthday is going well. Tom

I think those are the most 'godly' hours, Tom, when all is quiet and the dawn is beginning to light the day. My birthday was fantabulous. I was treated to breakfast and dinner. But it began with you and the blog you set up in which so many kind poets joined in. Thank you for that, Tom. You're the best.

Hi Jan. I'm glad you can't tell the difference in writing. A good blend is what we were hoping to achieve. Thanks for liking our creation.

Stunning poetry, your second stanza is Jenna personified, mystical poems are definitely your forte, I still reckon there's a niche waiting for you in Disney, cheers David

They have writers ok, but they also need poets for casting spells, lol,

"Jenna personified" that can be dangerous, Davie. lol Thank you so much, but I doubt Disney has trouble finding as many writers as they need. Still...

This joint effort was not only fun, but it's true in my case. I don't like noisy distractions when I write. I guess that's why I enjoy writing early in the morning when the world around me still sleeps. Thank you for so many things, Mark.
