Eve Roper Poet Prose

Mentors Inspire and Encourage a Poet's Worth

Mentors inspire and encourage

Have you ever gotten discouraged? 
Doesn't matter how hard you apply
Your afflicted emotions just get in the way
To the point the artist ceases to create

The human mind thrives with positive   
Physical and cognitive response
The brain will not be motivated if
It’s starving for those emotions 
And it’s parched for words


Love touches the body
Love touches the soul
Love controls our mind and emotions
Mentors inspire and encourage to motivate
Filling the bowl of our soul with
 Sweet melodies that rhyme till it overflows

Carrie Richards June 1, 2015 at 3:16 PM Every thing you have said here, holds true ! There is nothing like encouragement and kindness, to help someone be successful. And thank you, Eve, for your kind words and offerings. :) Eve Roper June 6, 2015 at 7:51 PM Thank you for being one of the mentors hugs eve

Andrea Dietrich May 30, 2015 at 12:40 PM a really nice tribute to mentors. I had one. Her name was Floria. Our friendship lasted at least six years and then she decided to leave poetry forevermore and phoof! she was gone from my life. So strange. Eve Roper May 30, 2015 at 1:05 PM Andrea, that is how I feel about you and a few others always there for encouragement. I'm blessed thank you :~)
