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

My Poem_Realms of Thoughts (1 reply)

Akanksha Awadhesh Singh

When your mind speaks your soul,
It plans to hit heaps of goals,
No second thoughts about the possible trolls,
As you always got to play your role,
Realms of thoughts prick my soul,
Thoughts never so fascinating,
Always make me believe time and again,
Dude! Your story is in making,
As if coal wished so long when it will turn gold,
Realms of thoughts prick my soul,
What makes so passionate about something?
May be the love of the people I am earning,
Everybody wishes to lead a life full of bling,
Our dreams make us feel like kings,
When the dawn makes the dark prowl,
Realms of thoughts prick my soul..
