Because no one asks,
suddenly everything feels doable:
my list gets shorter;
we choose to share a song, then silence,
then a story only when it wants out.
It sits right.
Light in the bones,
sure in the gut,
the rare kind of fit
that makes a day open up.

Who is a Poet, What is a Poet? By Richard H. Fay A poet pens poetry, Translating feelings into verse. A poet creates art, Painting notions using words. A poet crafts works Touching their readers’ souls. A poet provides sustenance Nourishing the spirit. A poet speaks of life So others may better their lot. A poet speaks of death So others may survive their grief. A poet shares sadness So others may endure pain. A poet shares gladness So others may receive joy. A poet pours out their heart Onto a blank page. A poet bleeds out their life Into their creations. A poet is a beacon Shining in the dark. A poet is a human Doing human things.
Poets’ Call to Arms By Richard H. Fay Now more than ever Us poets gotta stick together. We very well might save human creativity From destruction by rampant technology. Culture being under threat like never before Brings the ranks of versifiers to the fore. Us poets gotta do what's right And keep up the good fight!
I've posted a few art shares here, but what about a poetry share?
If you're a fellow poet, give me a shout out and share some of your poetry.
I really want to connect with more fellow poets.
Think of it almost as a virtual open mic.

“You are still healing
From the things
You didn’t deserve
And that’s okay
- Keep going”

My #mixedmedia piece titled “Theorem”
Twilight in Concord, NH
One of my pieces from the “Dying Star” series
A handful of Purple flowers + Queen Anne’s lace + ragweed 🌺
Sharing one of my favorite poems, “Bavarian Gentians” by DH Lawrence, as well as some photos & pieces that seem appropriate. It’s not quite a spring poem, but it’s not quite spring yet.

Come on man
I’m spitting #feathers
crashing glass
with a sledge hammer
no appeasing
Too many wrongs
in this world
and not enough healing
make the sufferers suffer more
and all you rich take
from the poor
in an endless cycle
that can’t be broken

A poem I wrote called in my dreams.
#poetry
The storm was vicious
violent and cruel
#hail and thunder
I could hear
the windows rattle
as the lights flickered
Such a tempest
I'd never witnessed before
Were the Gods angry
unleashing their power
I could only wait
for it to die down
#vssdaily #poetryshare #poem
He arrived with scissors
sharp and shiny
eyes lit up
heart pumping
hell bent on destruction
inflicting pain
he began to cut
and cut
at the #creeper
until only sad
shapeless pieces
remained.
#vss365 #poetryshare
Here is my #poemoftheday
it's called scathing. Hope you like it. It might ring through for some parents.
#poetryshare #poetrycommunity
THE WALKER
never pauses
takes in a breath
eyes to the ground
never looking ahead
Summer in winter
Springtime never
Just wandering
through the time
he has left
