Welcome Poetry
We have been waiting for you here in this land
Where poets and minstrels run wild and free
For you are what we long for
You are what we need
You are the spirit of our lives
And the love of our hearts

Your voice sings to us in the
Deepest and darkest of nights
And inspires us to seek the
Best and brightest of days
Singing to us the songs of our hearts
In the keys of our lives
Playing the instruments of our souls

Your spirit fills us when we are empty
Showing us the wonder of life
Sharing with us the passion of love
Sparing us the pain of loss
Comforting us when we are sad
Laughing with us when we are happy
Helping us put our feelings into words

Your touch makes our skin tingle
Making us speak the words that will
Cause you to touch us again
For we do long so for your touch
It warms our heart and our soul
Makes the flame burn brighter in us
Yours is the touch that all poets seek

Welcome Poetry
I have been waiting for you here in my land
Where poets and minstrels run wild and free
For you are what I long for
You, my love, are what I need
You are the spirit of my life
And the love of my heart

Welcome Poetry

Beautiful words. Welcome to you, and I agree with this poem in every way. You spoke the hearts of all poets, I believe.

Powerful poetry
pulling poets
'pon pages
purely possessing
passionate prose
pouring pain ...
spilling splendor
so soundly
surrendering
sounds softly
since silence
surrounds solice
saturations
swelling ...
smiling ...
seeking sensational
sacrifice.


====================

WELCOME TO PASSIONS ... wonderful entrance and do hope to see much more from you.

Thank you all very much.

You have made me feel very welcome here.  I have come from another place where I did not feel so welcomed.  I am glad that I found this place.

I hope to be here for a while.  

Thank you all again.

Hi Passions Voice,

You have just reminded me of why when my life like it is at this moment hard and rough going can't keep my heart from wanting to come home. Passions tugs at a poets heart once he or she has found the love expressed, and the freedom that only this place can offer, I welcome you and hope you enjoy it here as I have. Loved your entry beautiful work, a keeper I might add thank you.

Love, Cerenity
