Poetry

Poetry can lighten your soul,
                                      soothe  the heart,
                                And convey the message you
                                       want to impart.

                                Read it carefully, savour the 
                                thoughts of someone who cares
                                    to envision ideas from
                                          their heart.

                                Inspiration may come in 
                                          many forms.

                                Visualize unvoiced words,
                                    Felt and not spoken.
                                 Given as a gift for all to
                                              enjoy.

awesome, I clicked and clicked and finally I fell upon this one I had never seen before, from 2008. The message is so true, so please go forth and write MORE poems for us to savour. LUv, Andrea (on the question you asked me, I don't know if I would change my fate, but wouldn't it be cool to go back and try it?)

Hi Anne, how are you... first I'll comment... poetry is a big part of who we are... and yes not everyone can see or feel what we poets can... even if we are amateurs.. the one thing I love about poetry is the many form .. the intriguing lies and truth about words in art... well anyways.. you asked about reviews... do you mean viewers... if you lost any ... and need to fix... just let me know... take care... p.d.
