My Poetry Is Me


            My Poetry is Me.


My poetry is me.
You won't find me behind forest trees.
Nor in brilliant words in flight.
Nor in words, esoteric
One-liners are not me.
Nor do I flaunt my intellectuality.
Nor feign humble religiosity.
I know no other way to be~
My poetry is simply,me.

Hello Darlene--I always appreciate your visits and Cooments. I leave no guesses as to what I am really like. I am neither angel nor Muse. Just human. Panagiota xxxooo

Hello Ann. I was reading your "Chandelier Earrings" last night. Your poetry is all so great. I wish I were better at poetry. But simplicity and upfrontness is me. Exactly how I am in real life. I don't know how to be otherwise. What a great compliment. PANAGIOTA XX. Was excited at winning two contests last week. I usually stay out of them-)) IRENE is sitting on my chest as I type on the iPad.^*^

Write from the heart, your personality is in your poems, if you're happy, does it really matter what anyone else thinks Keep the ink flowing Tom

It goes beyond happiness, Tom. Anybody can write one and be satisfied, whether the crowd yeas or nays. I meant the poem fits no form. Nor is there that )excruciating agony to make it fit one, wish there were a category called, "mine"" )) Pangie xx

Hi Bob! I forwarded your poem Celebration to family friends and a few dear poets here. All enjoyed it.))) I keep saying I won't write anymore poetry. But now that I found my own poetical voice, so to speak, hope to pen more. Feels glorious and free, Bob Happy Fourth to you and all your great family! God Bless you, outstanding American and poet! Hugs, Pangie! Xxoo
