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
MY LIFE CHANGING DECISION!
I am a human being in youth,
While various decisions is laid out in sequence,
To interpret in thoughts,
Fighting with predicaments all along to make an ultimate decision!
I am not like Sherlock Holmes,
Making decision in an instant at home,
As I am staring over my dreams like goals,
With some soothing coffee in hand!
Different decisions with favourable paths,
While some are successful and unsuccessful in earth,
But always an option should waltz with the heart,
Indicating our intriguing interest in it!
An astonishing decision could open up a new beginning,
Also could create an unexpected moment in singing,
While there maybe some perils in paths,
I don't mind breaking that barrier apart altogether!
A story about my life,
Where I am the lead heroine in this stage,
If a decision could change this unpredictable stage,
It's the decision that makes me to endure and smile at the same time!
- tiny glowing star.
