JUS' THOUGHTS
To name pain is to honor it. The past reminds us that empathy is the poet’s deepest offering. We stay, we listen, we speak.

Poetry is more than beauty — it nurtures empathy, calms the mind, & boosts immunity. On #PoetsDay, let’s recognize poetry as care, connection, and collective well-being. 🌿 tinyurl.com/5ezbrjfd

A poem by Maggie Devers Afternoon in March, a Study She’s been making miniatures of our furniture With the intensity of a set decorator and a production date. Accuracy is essential but there is room for artistic license. Whimsy, whimsy is paramount. Like Fabergé– Where eyes are jewels And cockerels spring from eggs to announce the hour The sun’s coming in at a completely different angle And I can’t comprehend how a time change makes this possible Continued on the next image Keywords: poem, poetry, poet, community, instapoet, instapoem, writing, women, empowerment, writer, creative
Poem continued from the previous image. I film her to capture the moment Her, standing near the window Drawing in the unkempt living room, Like an artist’s studio, And she asks if I’m taking a video And tells me she needs help writing a note She’s put her bowl in the sink, the red sauce comingling with the soapy water from my eggs And we write a letter to the fairies And life is simple And I remember a bar of soap in a fancy box That smells like heaven And reminds me of my grandmother Keywords: poem, poetry, poet, community, instapoet, instapoem, writing, women, empowerment, writer, creative
🌻 If you've ever struggled to find the beauty in the day, this one's for you.

Some days, the sky forgets
how to colour itself...

There’s a quiet knowing inside each of us. A nudge. A pull. A whisper that says this—this is where your soul feels alive.
