Poetry Lover Poem
The writer in me, wants you to know that she writes to just be
She seldom writes to please
Or appease
All she writes for is to be
In writing to be
She creates a space within her that allows
her to become a writer that she was meant to be
The writer in me, wants you to know that she barely writes for accreditation
She does not know much about it
Or care for it
She cares about the space in which she wants to be
In writing, she finds joy and peace
And liberation of a special kind that writers perhaps need
Writers are freedom fighters I believe now
They fight for a cause
That have no hope at all
So what is the cause I am fighting for
I still don’t know
Perhaps it will emerge in tiny bits here and there
The writer in me will find one very soon
For now, the writer in me
Just writes to be.

Poetry Lover Poem
Poetry came to my mind
A little late on hindsight
Yet it’s beauty of its own
Stop judging and believe you can own
Yes poetics are romantics
They elucidate the unfathomable
They create the unbelievable
Rumi was a poet
And so was Tagore
I hope to be my own
With wings I adore

Poetry Lover Poem
Dumstruck - Dk
I am dumbstruck by the advent of invention
Not jut in science and technology but also in art and writing
For now I create and share poetry without even knowing
Poetry my first love
Art and craft my next
We are now in an era where time is flying
Good to know we have advanced so much
That malice and greed is no longer that much
Nations are helping
People are learning
Civilizations are changing
People are doing
It’s a good era to be born in
People are awakened to their own potential as human beings
I seldom remember times when we had no computer
Those were times when food and shelter were for go getters
Those fights are not anymore if you do it right
Enjoying the birth of invention
Is a privilege for very many
Let’s not waste them frivolously

Poetry Lover Poem
I got to roll up my sleeves
And go to work
Even though at times I simply don’t want to
There is no choice
Says a voice
I got to do what I got to do
For work pays bills and keeps you alive
I have rolled up my sleeves
And got to work
I am staring a new life
On a strong note
Work keeps me alive
There is nothing else to be more precise

Poetry Lover Poem
Dream
Not so real
Not so true
Until it happens to you
It fills you with delight
If you are gifted
With its sight
Dream oh dream
You hardly come true
But you keep me alive
Give me hope
Allow me to rise
Dreams may work or they may not
It’s up to you to fathom them or not
You just want to be sure
Dreams don’t
Tear you apart
Approach dreams practically
Some may work
Some may not
And if they don’t
Kiss them good bye
And kick them with a bye bye
The real dream is you
The making of you
Into something unbelievably true
Once you discover this
Dreams won’t matter
Even to you

Poetry Lover Poem
This little dime
I want at any cost
I live in a luxury Vegas penthouse
This little dime
I roll down my sleeve
Hidden under my tux like a cream
This little dime
I have lost my mind
I am willing to go blind
For it and die
This little dime
I don’t need it anymore
Because I don’t have eyes to see it anymore
This little dime
Never meant me well
I am okay that I am in hell
This little dime
I am happy you are not mine
Even though I miss fine women and wine

Poetry Lover Poem
Edgy waters
Flocking birds
Slashing rain
Shattering Thunderbolts
Gaping canals
Waterfalls of trees
What was I thinking
In slow whispers
As I read Mary Oliver
To learn about Nature
My journey as a poet has hardly begun
But being a poet is my strive

Poetry Lover Poem
Feelings numb
Thoughts blank
Meditation
Or not
Lost in woods
Wildfires
Growth without mires
Nothingness
A space of possibilities
Collective consciousness
To unite and ignite
Bright minds
Through poetry
At first sight
In my mind and yours
From a world
Beyond habitat

Poetry Lover Poem
A word that is commonly used
What does it mean
Is it bubble bath
And spa
A picnic
Or a dance
It is neither
And all
An acceptance
Of fall
Like changing leaves
That become part of our life
Self love
Is about accepting
One’s life
Nothing is certain about self love
Everything is evolving
Yet you love the change
The changing you
The churning and mincing
To create love in you
Soon you will understand self love
Was never about a performance
It is a song in your heart
That led you to dance

Poetry Lover Poem
They hit shores like never before
Wonder what they were thinking about
To feel so sore
Why were they so rough
Was it time to toughen up
Sand and pebbles on my feet
With grumpy waves beneath my feet
What’s the matter with you
Are you being pretentious
Or something you feel so deep
Lighten up my friend
You are so sweet
