Love
Hate
Pain
Wisdom

Who said they were words

A new day
An old day
Yesterday
and
Tomorrow

So what was poetry

Thunder
Lightening
Rain, or Snow
Seasons in voice

Another day, Another Love to Hate

a poet who cares

One can never hate a love!  Poetry is the voice of soul - all its hopes and dreams and perhaps what is still yet to be.  Taking notice is important and documenting it equally so at whatever skill level one is blessed with.  Write on!

You absorb the words, recieve inspiration from the images, feel until the stinging pain can only be relieved by pouring out the words, that another absorbs....round and round.
These words of yours are a fine example, as are all your words. Count me in as one of your loyal fans.

The point is, I wrote the "poem" above as a form of protest, (on another site I belong to) because to me I do not consider that to be poetry.

But perhaps I might change my mind
