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

.

I want the time to cease,

I want to feel that peace.

 

Everything with you seems so beautiful,

Your loving heart is my peaceful tool.

 

Your Every smile is my most precious asset,

I want to keep that each moment safely in my

heart's closet. 

 

You are my moonlight in the darkness of night,

You are my star that makes my life bright.

 

Only you can calm my soul's rising wave,

You make me strong, You make me brave.

 

I mean each and every written line.

And i can proudly say ,"Mom ,She is mine".

Thank you for submitting your poem for consideration for Featured Poem of the Week.  I very much enjoyed the gentle rise and fall of your images.  As I read it, I was reminded of the waves in a quiet sea, gently coming in an going out.  Nicely done.  Thank you for sharing with me, Susan
