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

We’ll be okay

 

 There are times when we need to talk 

  Yet words never come out. Sometimes things turn out really raw …where we start Losing people I know I mean, I know we’ll be okay at the end..! No matter how hard things become at times

  Because at the end it’s all           yours….it’s a part of you

I really imagine ….there is time where everything is done ..and it’s pouring out…jus sitting in a private garden chilling with a drink.. laughing out watching all the struggles and the way …jus came over them…in all the way..

I know…it sounds like…a fantasy but… trust me..

For me the most interesting people seem to have the bumpiest past ..like all the Beauty lies in the struggle scars…. Which…show up:-\

So…won’t we celebrate …! Having a struggle…and try to solidify ..the bond….of you and me….together isn’t this enough to tell

                We’ll be okay 🙂

                                          Mansi....!
