What Poetry Means to Me:
Poetry is a voice for the voiceless
Living words wrapping around us as a shield in the war of life
Touching the secret heart in us no one can see
Explaining who we are at our core
A hand caressing a face
A hug for the unhuggable
A peg for our proverbial hat
A kiss from someone with love
Abandon to our wild
A piercing pain to be released on the page
An incessant voice in our minds telling us to WRITE WRITE WRITE
Poetry for me is home……
