Panagiota Romios Poet Lyric

What the Wind Said

Relaxing near my pool, I heard
a whisper in my ear.
I felt the warmth of a crystal 
gleaming tear.
The wind whispered ever so
softly and breezily:

"It's perfectly acceptable,
Panagiota, to be fully thee!"

"To follow the crowd, is
totally, not your balance"

"State your truth, with panache
and elegance!"

Thus, I resigned from chasing
approval and popularity.
The true glory was for me, simply
being totally me..
In every segment of my poetry.

Panagiota Romios August 14, 2019 at 10:33 AM Dear Jennifer, thanks for letting me . know your feelings when I write Poems with 100 reads each and zero comnents. I get totally frustrated. I Hope you understand me. I do now. After I wrote Panagiota's Lament, that gave me the courage to move on..Panagiota

Poetic prophesy. :) gw Panagiota Romios August 13, 2019 at 6:23 PM I have never been able to be one of the crowd! LOL. The wind verified that...was awake all last night posting. Exhausted today but was on a roll last night. I saw Susan's poem and her tribute to you, Wonderful. Panagiota
