Notes About The Poem

 

That's me, behind McKenzie Horse (2017)

Melancholy,
a storyteller, a poet, a painter, photographer;
like finding words to express me, doing sketches, and paintings,
have ideas about displaying my art, creating a nature journal, my garden.
Sometimes, I feel lonely and lost, oh will these seedlings ever grow,
I fear death, decay of my life treasures, my pets health;
would like to find acceptance of the past, present and future,
resident of this wonderful place we call Earth.
Writer . . .

Thanks for revealing "some part" of you through this piece... I admire your sincerity, and I pray for joy to prevail in your life that I believe the Lord from His fountain of joy can give you abundantly. God bless you.

Beata, thank you for the compliment on my poem, through all my troubled waters the Lord has held my hand or held me in his arms, and sometimes he just walks beside me _Constance

You are not behind the horse, but meeting it eye-to-eye, and eye-to-eye reveals more mysteries than a crystal ball! Aloha! Rico

I remember this contest and I remember - vaguely - your first write like this. I remember that I did not respond as I am to this version of 'you'. From what little I know via exchanges and impressions, this poem IS you, word by word, line by line as often revealed in your poetry. Of course, there's more, we all have more but this one nails the essential, public view of you, in my view, if you will! Poetry hugs ... CayCay

CayCay, thanks so much for the comment, appreciate a lot, of course there is much more to me than can be put in 9 lines, I would need to write a book of my life. I did this poem because I am actually going to do another contest on this form. Hope you will consider entering_Constance

A lot of questions remain to be answered...but all you can do is do...and somewhere along the way find joy in doing it...and that be your reward...

I have heard out of melancholy comes motivation. Your poem elegantly expresses you and your challenges. Thank you for connecting us, poets, in a special circle of understanding - heads nodding in agreement!

Sam, thanks for visiting, I once heard that poets must suffer to be good and I believe that totally, when I am sad well that is when I write my best poems, and I bet that is true of many of us on PS, I try to use all my scars and sorrow in my poetry _Constance
