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

An adorable adventure of my life was ...

One of the unpredictable story of my life . .

The road of my life was full of obstacles and circumstances. .

I got a path that was full of new chances...

A new beginning of the life was started ...

 I got a potential ..to be independent and kind-hearted 

Suddenly the path diverged into new paths 

By closing my eyes and taking a deep breath ,,,I decided to choose the path that was travelled less

And the result was  ....I got SUCCESS....

This belongs to everyone because everyone has to face many obstacles to get success and I am one of them but always remember one thing only HARDWORK leads to success....

What a happy, upbeat, and positive poem you've written.  Using Robert Frost's line from his poem, The Road Less Traveled, was a nice touch.  And that rhyme, right there at the end, really works.  Your poem could benefit from grammatical corrections but, I do thank you so very much for sharing it with me.  I always enjoy a "success" story, in poetic form.  Your friend in poetry, Susan
