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

Her's and Mine (1 reply)

She is awake thinking about me ,
I am asleep dreaming about her .

And somewhere between her thoughts and my dreams
we collide .

Her thoughts become mine, my dreams become her's .

They materialize and come into being ,
in the midst of our conscience .

Where we lie together
in our far yet too close proximity.

Inside our own small universe
that even science couldn't decipher.

That's where we exist.

Thank you so much for sharing this very lovely poem with me.  I love the contrasts you introduce and how they play off of one another.  I will add your poem to the others I am considering for Featured Poem of the Month for June.  I will be announcing the winner on Friday, May 28th in my newsletter.  You have talent and I hope you keep writing, Susan
