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

STARING AT THE STARY SKY... (1 reply)

Every night,
With me I fight.
Even when I am out of guidance,
I can find it in this silence.
Every day a question new,
I try my best to answer a few.
Puzzled as always,with no clue,
I walk under this blanket blue.
Figures in the sky,the constellations,
Have always been my fascination.
Cause,whenever I try for near perfection,
They push me towards introspection.
Witnessing the sky turn black,
Wishing that someday I can turn things back.
Gazing at the stars that shine,
Hoping that one day I can make him mine.
Staring at the stary sky...
Brooding about the things that one can't buy.
