Welcome to my Poet Lady Chat Room. I would like to invite you to click on the chat box and type in a question, a suggestion, submit a poem, in other words – “chat with me.” I may, if you submit a poem, decide to feature it in my Poem of the Week section or, we may simply exchange ideas and suggestions about your poem.
This is a place to “talk” poetry with someone who has loved it all her life. I have a true passion for the possibilities of poetry and would love to hear your thoughts and/or read your poem. I will be happy to offer my reaction to your work and, based on over 40 years of teaching poetry, organizing, and conducting poetry workshops, working as a book review editor for an international poetry magazine, authoring five books of poetry and two textbooks on teaching poetry, send along my thoughts on ways to make your poem stronger and more impactful.
If you’re on my site, you have a connection to poetry. Feel free to connect with me – right here -right now, by typing your message into the “chat box” and clicking send. I’m waiting…
Your friend in poetry, Susan
FEATURED POEM
Somewhere on the barren land
Stands a creepy old Kingdom palace
Destroyed , devasted yet a pleasure to eyes
There stands a blue eyes filled with dreams of happiness
Happiness that never passes into nothingness
Long long long ago there stood a Kingdom
Filled with joyous Street like times of London
But then came a storm of dust, a storm of bad omen that took everything away
There was a voice from a black window
Window that still holds a story of past
Still dreams of world back in time to make a return
You never know when the wheel of fortune returns
Black window is still the place where light rays extend their beauty
The blue eyes get teary every evening
Like waiting for a bliss from heaven
And then every morning still dream of good old tales
Tales that have been printed in the books of history
#HISTORY REVEALS DREAMS ARE NEVER MEANT TO BE SURRENDERED BUT ALWAYS TO BE LIVED AGAIN AFTER TIMES OF DEVASTATION...
