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

The Stars Upon The Sky
Pull My Heart To Dream High,
Radiant Moon Amidst The Clouds
Incessantly Motivates Me To Try.

Cool Comfort Of Darkness
Cuddles My Soul Whenever I Cry,
It Pacifies My Spirit
Staring At The Night Sky.

Thank you for sharing this short, but very well written, poem in tribute to The Night Sky.   You have some very poetic, rhythmic, and well written lines in your poem.  I particularly like "Radiant Moon Amidst the Clouds" and "Cool Comfort of Darkness."  Keep writing and experiment with poems that don't rhyme but rather, focus more on the image and the emotional connection you have towards the subject matter.   - Susan
