Vocabulary & words give me joy & a beautiful outlet to create artful expressions of creativity..I’m also a lover of nature & metaphors. I believe nature is our greatest teacher. Using a combination of vocabulary, nature, & metaphor in a variety of writing formats is what I love, from research papers, to public speaking, to story telling & poetry. I typically write in a freestyle format, but am not afraid to venture out & try new styles of poetry. I’ve always loved poetry, & am drawn to poets like Alfred Lord Tennyson, Emily Dickinson & others.
I'm a highly intelligent, articulate and well-educated human being with an intuitive but enterprising sense of responsibility and a strong moral compass that instinctively demarcates what's right and wrong. Trust, confidentiality and having the courage, regardless of what I do, to formulate and stand by my own personal convictions are key aspects of my life and, unsurprisingly, are also principal characteristics I attach great importance to and naturally expect from those who want to play a meaningful role in my life. I don't suffer fools gladly, in fact not at all and most definitely haven’t got any interest in or time for egotists, time-wasters, attention seekers or the narcissistic. Furthermore, I’m an adult and in my private and professional lives prefer to deal with genuine adults, so anyone who wants to act childishly and thinks they can have any kind of relationship with me, then you’re wrong! And my advice to you in that regard is to go and enrol in a kindergarten as you'll possibly have better luck there.

“L'amour n'est pas un feu qu'on renferme dans une âme : Tout nous trahit, la voix, le silence, les yeux; Et les feux mal couverts n'en éclatent que mieux.”Racine Love is not a fire that one encloses in a soul: Everything betrays us, the voice, the silence, the eyes; And poorly covered fires only break out better. ” Racine
As a perpetual and chronic daydreamer I've always enjoyed the art of summoning emotion with written word. But it wasn't until recently that I was stricken by a very sudden, and equally deep, passion for writing poetry. It seems that we make good companions so I suppose we'll continue to occupy one another for a while longer... As a writer, I hope to publish a book of poems in the future. More importantly, I hope to paint a unique picture, stir emotion, or raise a few questions within my readers. If I can accomplish this, I have certainly achieved my goal and consider it a job well done. As a reader, I hope to experience literature that is capable of delivering me from this reality to place me within the realm of another, thereby offering a temporary escape from a world that is mine. I hope to discover phrases that might cause my perception to shift into something unfamiliar. Reaching the outer limits of my mind to the birthplace of epiphany. And if not, I simply wish to learn something new to me... Thank you for taking the time to read my thoughts, and feel free to leave some of your own . After all, feedback is fuel for inspiration... And now... A QUOTE: “Fortune comes a crawlin', calliope woman, spinning that curious sense of your own.” ~ ~ Jerry Garcia
I have loved poetry for a number of years but in past 10 years have started to write my own but still a beginner in learning the craft.My favourate poets are Emily Dickinson,William Blake, Robert Frost, Katherine Mansfield and Christina Rossetti. I also like to read ( historical, biographical, Christian), listen to classical music but also like other types of music, watching films on DVD. I am 60 and have been happily married for 24 years to Christine and love to regular attend church, watch films and enjoy the countryside together. MY TESTIMONY I am a Christian and have been for over 30 years, so here's my story. First of all I was adopted at six months of age and have had a severe stammer all of my life although not particularly bad before starting school. I met my first wife Jean when I was in mid 20s, Jean was a Christian who attended the Salvation Army where I first heard the gospel and believed it but only in my head. After a series of decisions made for Jesus which proved to be flawed and false but I started to read the Bible but I was still not willing to accept the gospel offer of salvation. Jean and I got married in 1981 and after less than a year of marriage Jean died suddenly, on that evening of Jean's passing I prayed for God to forgive me of my sins and received Christ becoming a new creature in Christ. Some nine years later having met Christine we got married in 1990 and have been very happily married for 24 years. God has been faithful to us in many ways directing, leading and guiding us in all His ways. We always think on Jeremiah Ch. 29 v. 11-14 which God has used so often in our lives together in giving us a future and a hope in Him for God knows the plans He has for us all. God has been helpful to me so often to fight through my stammer and been able to accept my situation helping me and reminding me so often His love overcomes all things. My favourate text is Hebrews Ch. 13 v.6. 'The Lord is my helper; I will not fear; what can man do to me?’ In august, 2012 I had been made redundant but have great peace in my heart the the Lord Jesus is with me and surrounding me in His love and wisdom for the future and great assurance of His will for me.
my life is not completely bad I just love whrighting these sad and very deep poems for some reason but some are very true plus people think i am a strange girl btw you know I had a picture that I drew well it won't let me change it back sadly. I am just looking for a good place To truly express my self in poetry I feel that I can just let all my pain and suffering out.
I've been writing all my life, since I could read and hold a pen. Its only been in the last couple of years that friends and writing colleagues have encouraged me to submit work for publication. Slowly I've been finding success in getting work recognised in magazines and journals and at spoken word events. I'll post here as regularly as I can, posting poems that are new that I like or have achieved some success. I hope the writing engenders some understanding and encouragement #poetatheart
The wife of a loving husband. Mother of two beautiful children, girl and boy . I love God, nature and people. I love expressing myself through speech. I've been writing since 2005. My husband is my biggest fan and supporter. God is my inspiration. His love and continuous grace is the theme I love writing about.
the way I write is different , original I created this style and I call it ~Poetic dialect} enjoy !!! Im half Palestinian and half Russian I fall in love often with knowledge,not seduction love to me is about passion not repercussions every day I imagine loving ever lasting if was the case no more I could ask for !! My giving name is Samer i am a personal social visionary ,a self starter inventive business man. intuitive lucrative an crafty. systematically acting rationally,too respectful & very selective individual, I'm also ridiculed for being original, I got charisma no one can copy, yet with a potty mouth I have no proxy! Im sometimes seductive and foxy, never called a softy yet talkative enough to talk a court into a mockery, yet I completed competition to create A monopoly. I have faster self-control like a master. Patience similar to a burning candle! Not demanding with sincere actions but like a ninja I don't like to much attention if that's the case I'm creating a distracting for my quick extracting,I'm speedy with quick reaction when others Are harassing bit of a jokester, but yet a true leader!! Take a minute and observe how I obligate the opposite of toxic, im a true romantic with aspects too dynamic too dissect! Im not arrogant but reasonably confident, honestly loyalty matters most I promise....
This blog started out as a form of therapy, a way to block out worries and stresses, but it has evolved into a way of feeling positive about my work and proud of what I have achieved. I have always loved poetry and it's great to have this corner to display what I have achieved.
Back after such a long long time!! Things really do change!! Please don't expect good grammar, academic ability etc etc. school was a no go but...there always is one...my writings are as and when, easy, with words everyone understands...else...what's the point right?! ....in hindsight...maybe the point is "if I don't understand, I could try?!" but will I ... I'm no Bukowski...but the fact that I know of and Love his guts/writing/rebellion says it all. School....overrated "if you don't want your book to be judged by its cover...should you really write one?" Questions always gratefully received, my answers might not be" Music/book/film fiend...for fun! "it's just a ride" *Bill Hicks ABOVE ALL ELSE...MY LITERARY HERO..."The edge, there is no honest what to explain it because the only people who really know where it is are the ones that have gone over" *Hunter. S. Thompson
