Poetry and Me Contest

Poetry is my life it has become my only thought giving me peace within Like a large tree deep in the forest with roots that travel into my soul It is a recipe of every word I have ever heard blending together like soup It is every thought that I have ever had spinning around and around in my head Poetry is you, without you my poetry would fall upon deft ears and die in the wind It is the sky, the moon the sun and earth, the stars and the water that surrounds it It is love, hate, death and destruction, tears and faith and God up above Poetry To Me Is: All that exist and I feel honored to write it Sponsored by: Silent One Contest: Poetry And Me Date Created: 02/20/2019 Judged 1st Place

There is so much passion in your words, and from those who feel so much the same, it is if you also know our own hearts. Poetry speaks volumes, when everyday conversation may leave us speechless. Well said, Bobby. :)

WoW! Bobby, This is my kind of poetry. Your love and passion for poetry is standing tall in this piece. Your second stanza blew me away" Poetry is you, without you my poetry would fall on deaf ears and die in the wind" Your readers connect with your poetry because it comes from the depths of your soul. I don't have to wish you luck with this one, I will see you on the winners list. Excellent job:-) Alexis
