Light Up the World

Why pen, if just only is to be adored? For just creating only poetry, ethereal and planetary? We live on this earth, so beset with misdeeds. Should a poet dare write of these, and be afraid of poor reads? Fairy tales, and princes are indeed, in some of our dreams. But we turn our backs on our country’s most wanted needs. Like hunger, murder, or worse, making our children, into binaries. Poetry is your chance, to be one of this world’s hopeful luminaries. 12/22/2022

Zaghunda. This is a poem with a very string message.poems like this are ignored. People forget how easy it is we already have lost freedoms. As I said in my POTD, we must be leaders. Hope you read it. No matter where we live. It’s only two days ago. Thank you Panagiota

Should a poet dare to enlighten and illuminate, he may be treated as a poor ingrate -- yet those served by his fiery pen will think him great!
