Reviving the stuff of folklore

Storytelling
What is a Storyteller
If nothing more than a Lady or a Fella
With a overzealous mind
And an overview of time and the whiles of folk
That have spoke
To a place
Where the engines awake
And fire and stoke an Earthquake
this is the machine,
you are the lithium cells,
blue or red pill, flask to fill,
take them both_with gin,
send it for a loop, make it spin,
carnival of corona limestone.
can there be two wolf pups
with the same eyes_?
moon opens to reveal the face in skies.
My friend from Trinidad
has swagger like no other
Grew up drenched in music's rhythm
surrounded by storytelling musicians
who'd belt out proud social messages
To this day he lives and breathes music
Transports him to that soulful party place

Summertime,
The living is lovely,
Gnoochi with Nonny,
Fresh dough,
Kneaded,
Love,
Needed,
For every step,
Chef caps adorn our crowns,
It’s a lovely afternoon,
Rich in tradition is our recipe,
Love is how it is conjured,
How I miss our days,
Of gnoochi and storytelling,
Memories are all that's left.
example 1:
recently orphaned adult
seven billion living souls
yet i am from no one
disquieting thoughts
elusive sleep
my children make me smile
example 2:
most glorious day
age sixteen milestone
driving test passed
shared joy with
best friend who
failed three times
Struggling
The mind,
Looking
To find
Words
Metaphors
Visuals
Simple
Meaningful
Unpretentious
Sincere
Ways
Of Storytelling
Life experiences,
Convictions
Feelings
Faith
And ideas,
Imitating no one
Truthful to myself
Not trying to impress you,
Or anybody else.
A healing goal
Process
For both.
Storytelling
Harmony of his eyes
Father painted our sky
God kindness of scene
Forseen
Long awaited
God created
Peace from above
A tale of love
Heavens grace
Blessed our faith
Father you knew
How to create a view
Tutorage
Yellow purple and orange
The river overlook
Figure of clouds we took
Our smiles you awoke
Saw the truth as you spoke
Storytelling
Each of us has stories to tell if only we had the
courage to try
But what if they laugh at me?
or worse say they don’t like what I wrote
I don’t think I could survive that,
laying bare my story, exposing my
most raw hour
We must uplift our future storytellers at every turn
Stories are where we can safely moor, set our
anchor, rest and write
Words are a poet's greatest tool
Having the power to turn what we perceive
Into a masterpiece for viewers to read
Poetic storytelling with quills
Harnessing romance, sorrow and the drama
Whimsical, magical and the surreal
Evoking a response of emotions is what we do best
From surprises to laughter or even tears
Warm and loving feelings or feelings of dread
Writing is the essence of a poet's soul
Heartbreak in your eyes;
Herb garden jade rainforest;
The down flow waterfall covers your face;
Heartbreak eyes .
Heartbreak pyramid;
Sprig of mint;
Myst in the air;
Waterfalls splashings;
Emotions flowing like the ocean;
Storytelling devotion;
Heartbreak pyramid,
The reason why you cry...
Heartbreak

Written words by James Edward Lee Sr 2020
You must love me sideways,
Desert island of poetry and lace
Embroided inside the fleshy
Tunes of the drunken balladeer.
The overcast day, my warm soul
Inside the cold bed of gloom,
Comes to inhabit the sunny side
Of your world, cracking the whip
Of the edgy tales of tomorrow.
Sane for me, insane for you,
Choose a picky battle to ruin,
With the gaze that turns me
Defenseless as Scheherazade,
Before the storytelling squad.
