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

Thank you so much for sharing your poem with me.  You have a bit of an issue with the translation into English and so I have a bit of trouble understanding exactly what it is you are saying.  Only what bird sit(s) at (on) top of the eagle - who is "our" in the second line and, not sure what "structure" you are referring to.  Be brave like a crow - says it well and is very to the point.  If you would like, please spend a bit of time editing and then resubmit.  I would love to be able to feature your poem in one of my upcoming Instagram posts.  Your friend in poetry, Susan
