It’s the month of LOVE, and Colleen hasn’t let us down with her challenge!  This week, her words are Meaning and Passion. Remember, synonyms only!!

Written as a Etheree, my synonyms are Essence and Frenzy.


Our
Essence
Symbolic
Of love’s true heart
A beating rhythm
Racing to a frenzy
Until the excitement ebbs
Leaving us spent in a sweet bliss
And the moment lingers quietly
As we lie safely in each other’s arms

She is living proof
Animals know compassion
For she has taken
Another as her own true
Keeping it warm in the night

There is no struggle
Nor is there disparity
Where love conquers all

Trust, when things aren’t going your way

And life seems to be getting a little tough

Instead of allowing your tempers to flare

Seek better reasons, to get over the rough!

 

Word of the Day – Trust
FOWC with Fandango – Reason

Falling on Deaf Ears – #freeverse #poetry

How do I make you hear
Better still, understand
When my words fall
On deaf ears, am I
But a hum, or drone
You have so easily
Tuned out, turned off
Or is it you who simply
Does not care to listen
Muting the sounds
Too full of yourself
To admit wrong
Ignoring the signs
You need help
Or to notice
I am right
Here

I Have a New Group! ~ Let’s Talk Poetry and More! – #FBGroup #poetry

Hello everyone!

I’m excited to tell you about a new group I’ve started on Facebook called “Let’s Talk Poetry and More!”

This group is all about who your favorite poets and passages are. I hope you’ll consider joining me, as we learn more about the poets of our time, and the ones that have long since past. This is not a group for self-promotion. I will be opening up the group twice a month for that, so be sure to look for those posts.

My goal is to be able to help you discover other poets you may not be familiar with, and learn together. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, or even answer questions asked by others.

I will not add you to the group. You need to click the JOIN button. We all have many groups we are involved in and it’s only right to respect your privacy.

I hope you decide this is a nice place to settle. Tea, coffee and cookies are always waiting. 🙂
