I am by far a "poet". Just a woman who likes to write poetry and read it as well, but I think my purpose of writing is to see things in a different light. That is when I feel I have accomplished something with my writing. When/if I can take an ordinary thing, feeling, or occurance and define it in a different way - make a less thought about part of it stand out. Honestly, most of my purpose is just to be able to reflect on life - maybe their is release in that, but thats not my main purpose.  ~m o o n l i g h t~ ------------------ www.auburn.edu/~fergum1 ~*Only when it is dark enough can you see the stars*~ |

Very enlightening, and well said. ------------------ "Grief can take care of itself, but to get the full value of joy you must have somebody to divide it with." *Mark Twain* |

I like your theory about taking a 'minor' part of something and making it stand out. Sort of like writing a poem about the way the wind blows the sheets on a clothesline. Very good!  |

First, Welcome to Passions in Prose! Very well said and concise, from the heart I think. ------------------ Shall I indulge in flights of fancy hampered by clipped wings? DreamEvil© |

Moonlight, I like how you asked, 'what if I could define it in a different way?' That is something I've always loved to find beauty in when I am reading poetry! I love to find such simple things explained and defined with beauty! ------------------ ~onevoice~ "She looked at her life like lines, never-ending, constantly forming, reforming and bending." |
