Poets understand what it is to share
They've poetic hearts that truly do care
When you are saddened, the best thing to do
Is pour out your feelings, it helps you through.
Releasing emotions on overspill
Is adept as shouting from a high hill
It's a therapy that gets it all out
Whatever your troubles maybe just shout.
Poet power breaks down barrier walls
There's nothing to stop you from telling all
Write it as it is, leave no stones unturned
There's magical healing in written words.
Poetry prayers are read, despair heard
And many a poet's heart doth become stirred
If there's a pain in your soul needs a fix
There are poets around bound to soothe it.
We remember this
You never miss
Life is do die this lie
You barghe
Vote put right person in charge
You one with right hand
Make stand
Be that golden shower
We got the Powe
S uperseding all flowers and alluring of all and audaciou s
U ltra-vibrantly attracting all creatures and bidding adie u
N ational flower - and thus you are Ukrainian and Russia n
F ervently reaching the zenith of the sun’s benedictional clif f
L oyally blossoming the love of Apollo; thus a mythical symbo l
O utstanding with gifts of foods, fodders and feeding scenari o
W edded with thousands of florets intertwined in an idyllic flo w
E ternally healing incurable illnesses and ending many an ach e

"Poetry is a life-cherishing force. For poems are not words, after all, but fires for the cold, ropes let down to the lost, something as necessary as bread in the pockets of the hungry."

Poetry shakes me, wakes me up.
Other poets open my mind to
Endless layers of reality and enable
Me to thrive in this special realm.
Sharing through poetry helps
Me know myself and others better. When I’m
Yearning to describe honestly my
Mindsets, whether stormy or calm,
I find that reading poetry provides stimuli,
Readies me for each expressive endeavor,
Reminding me that poetry is like a mirror,
Offering the reflection of one who
Realizes words possess inestimable power
Such potential for enhancing our lives!
its ture fact
the card was stack
he had our back
so much sin
that has come to end
to get the work done
over powe r this bad stuff
HE GAVE HIS
ONLY HIS ONLY SON
