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
FEATURED POEM
To the wind which flows all around
Come, Flow through my soal, Let me feel you.
Come, Drain my pain, Let me celebrate you.
Come, Vanish away my fear, Let me explore you.
Come, This girl is in need of you.
OH WIND, MY WIND
From cock-a-doodle doo of rooster
To returning back of seagull
You keep giving them hope,
desire and courage to fight.
Now come to me, this girl is in need of you.
To the wind which rules the joy.
Lift my spirit, blow away my fear.
Increase my will, take away the guilt.
Show me the real one, pull away the fake one.
All I need is good vibes.
Oh wind, My wind
Come, This girl is in need of you.
