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

Upto day , it's paves a way with secret away 

Pens on paper culminate wizardry, as cindrella had 

Not a doubt, letters rejuvenate power 

Nature's rhythm on my soul shower

I am a little confused by the meaning of the poem.  "Upto" is not a word in English - and grammatically, "it's paves a way with secret away..." has no meaning that I can grasp.  "Pens on paper culminate (in) wizardry"is nice, and "nature's rhythm on my soul..." is nice, but I'm not sure how the word "shower" fits in.  I think you have some good moments and a real feel for poetry.  It may just be, a translation from one language into another, issue.  I am very happy you chose to share your poem with me and hope my comments have been helpful.  Your friend in poetry, Susan
