Love is the essence of pure thought. There is nowhere that this thought is not. I grew up in a small town in Oklahoma, just beyond the outskirts of several gypsum plateaus, miles of desert sand and vast horizons. I would go out into fields of sunflowers with my pen and paper, watching the currents of wind moving through miles and miles of wheat to write about the lucid imagery I would see when I closed my eyes, the experiences of coming out in a conservative community and finding my way as an artist in a place that did not nurture the arts. Words have always been my primary way to sort out my experiences into streams of consciousness that act as a form of self-discovery. Called by the overwhelming pull to follow my dreams, I relocated to the Catskills to follow my passions and put every idea into motion. I am currently working on several video projects, performances in several venues, live music, Sparkle Poetic radio ads, and many new things that you can keep up with on my website below. Welcome to the realm of words. Love is real. www.sparklepoetics.com
I was born with verse in my blood. I was raised with poetry mixed in with my mother's milk. We were immersed in poetry from our school days; we were taught to read it, appreciate it, glean wisdom from it, knew all the poets of old by heart...Ironcally, in my culture, writing poetry is the high art and privilege of men seasoned by age and gifted by Creator with this rare talent; it was not for the young to 'fool around' with, so we were not taught or encouraged to express ourselves through verse. So I never knew I had it... It was in my young adulthood that I started to feel the Song of the heart stirring in me. A friend shared with me his poetry, showed me that we all have the capability, if only we tune into ourselves and listen. The first few tentative poems were born from under my pen. Then life happened, I tuned out, forgot that part of myself, shut the door on it for more than a decade. I do not know what prompted for my Song to resurface, one day it just started pouring out of me, but I am grateful for the reawakening of that part of my soul that I'd given up for lost, as well as for the people around me who fuel my inspiration. Whether intentionally or not, they keep the fire burning. An enormous Thank You to all of you for reading, commenting, sharing and inspiring. This is a wonderful and nurturing community for all aspiring poets. Prose is the language of the mind, poetry is the language of the soul.
I have been writing poetry since 2011 and I love doing it because I can express myself. I was bored one day and pick up a pen and paper and started putting words together on paper and now I am passionate about it. I write songs and short stories also but I am more better at writing poetry. I love music very much and I love fashion.
Poeta y educadora. PAS. Último libro: "Todo el amor que soy", en amazon.es/dp/B09QFJ5CGP "La alta sensibilidad nos abre el mundo, nos lo dimensiona y nos lo muestra con una profundidad incomparable.

Poesía para adultos y para niños.
Desde un desde, la empatía se alejo de mi, la poesía llegó como un anzuelo de palabras para este humilde poeta y soñador, el siguiente escrito no es un desvelo, es el velo de una sonrisa tras un muro de ansiedades. Te invito a que conocer un poco de mi sufrimiento tan hermoso como brusco, muchos gritos de mi corazón y miles de lagrimas desbordadas mis lágrimas recorriendo mi rostro con esperanza y temblores.

“A day with out a smile is a day wasted.” i'm only 18 i love writing poems or just writing its my own way of self explaining myself in any type of emotional thoughts. I'm a crazy army brat i have moved from countries to states to cities , that has helped me with my writing only in the matter that i find and have more to write about
I'm a lonely girl who loves nature, magick, and the unseen. My mind latches on to the things between the lines, the things that you can't find the right words for. I try my best to write them down and find myself almost always disappointed with the results. But I'm still trying. I relate to music a lot and sometimes its an inspiration. I don't have too many friends but I'm most comfortable when alone. I feel things too much, too deeply and I find myself often sad about things I can't comprehend. After too many negative experiences, I decided to disentangle myself and become consumed by the roller coaster of a journey I call my life. -The simple things- My name is Lis I live in NYC I am 23 years old Speech Pathology major Favorite writers are: Anais Nin, Hemingway, Anne Sexton, Sylvia Plath, J.K Rowling, Walt Whitman, JD Salinger, and many others.

I am a wife and mom. I am a lover of words, and an aspiring poet. I am a night thinker and a day dreamer. I haven't shared my work for a long time...in fact I thought I had lost my will to write for awhile. I only recently felt the urge to put pen to paper when the words willed me to do so. I love sharing and giving feedback, so please feel free to comment and give advice, as I am seeking to improve and grow. :) I publish my poems on instagram: @ybyassie and Pinterest: http://www.pinterest.com/yasmeenbb

My name is Lysa. I was born on February 6th, and had light ginger hair, and pale blue eyes. I was always the bright and cheery one as a kid; yet I was very shy and didn't have much friends. But I never really cared, because friends weren't a main priority in my life; even as a kid. I was always drawn to anything that had to do with nature and animals, I don't really understand why, it was just something really fascinating to me. I always made all As, but I don't even know how I managed to get grades like that because all I would ever did in class was daydream. I always liked poetry also. I didn't wright much poetry when I was younger, but I sure did spend loads of time reading it, but now I wright a lot of poetry, and I want to keep on writing it because its what makes me feel whole, complete, and happy with my life.
American poet, lyricist, scriptwriter, activist and entrepreneur Kiana Lyles is the author of My Name Ain't Baby poems. She is a Maryland native that began writing poetry at the age of 8 years old after the sudden death of her father she found a peace of mind through poetry. Feeling liberated through her discovery of word play and rhyme, poetry became her diary. "Poetry gave me a voice when I believed my voice was too little to be heard," she says. Whenever I wrote a poem, short story or lyric I got an opportunity to express myself, and escape reality. I would close my eyes and picture myself somewhere outside the lower- class neighborhood where I was raised, poetry saved me she says, without it I don't know who or where I would be". Today her poems celebrate the beauty of black women and their constant struggle of acceptance for accomplishments rather than their bodies. Yet, playful, bold and unapologetic her poems get at the heart of what plagues many women today. Kiana Lyles is a womanist that creates content that celebrates women empowerment. She encourages all women to love themselves unapologetically and to be confident within their own skin. Her goal is to empower generations of women to continue to be multidimensional and defy today’s stereotypes of women in entertainment, workplace, politics and education.
I come from a long line of struggle and hardship and I was graced with the battle scars to prove it. However because of this I love to help people who go through the trials and tribulations of life the best way I can. I want to provide hope and an outlook that they hadn't had before even with something so "simple" as a quick read.
