Date Night

on the bookstore's floor
time stands still as i
loose myself in poetry

voices of strangers in
the background with
occasional laughter

socialization of the
opposite sex and numbers
being exchanged...

as for me, i am content
with no human contact
comforted and complete

no need for broken
promises and unreturned
phone calls...spare me please

i find my greatest pleasure
as i turn the pages wrapped
in prose poems and haiku

Thank you for the blessings Wynn!

A personal relationship with Him and a desire to help others come first and then MY Love for writing!

Slow walking my third book, but this time....it's going to be fun and not as intense. Lol

Love for a great day!

Oh I love libraries too.
I can dig in and just enjoy.
I bet your third book will be great!

So true.

Poetry, as an art form, can wile away the hours, & bring so much silent simplicity into one's life: comfort, pleasure, companionship, lessons, & revelation... among other delights.

One.

Lin,

I love that Poetry is consider an art.

I am not a famous painter, singer, dancer or musician...but I'm a poetess and that makes me an "Artist!"

Love and peace :-)
