I’ve published several poems over the years, many of which were written as responses to postings by, or comments of, various friends on WordPress. Here are a few examples…
Title of Post With Link: “Freedom is a Bird“
Poetess: Holly Hunter
Flying with you into dawn through fresh mountain air sounds like the dream I’d had since we met. Your pen projects poetry as the perfect place where freedom lives and love flourishes, without limit, under star filled skies.
Title of Post With Link: “Flashback to Winter” – *
Poetess: (written by) Cindy Georgakas
Braving the storm for a captured shot,
breathing steam of cream in my coffee,
tracing steps where no one has trod this day.
A bench for two warmed many times before,
now blanketed by a white coat.
I carve my name and yours marking the day with a snap shot
in my mind and heart and now one I can share with the world as I click.
I mark a time in history to come back to when the sun comes up
melting memories to warm my soul and bring me close to you.
Title of Post With Link: “Fall Creek Falls” – **
Poetess: Sherry Lachelle
Like the natural beauty present each time you smile, dear Sherry, these ribbons of water dance in the wind, bending in curves which captivate.
Title of Post With Link: “Poem for a Friend” – **
Poetess: Annabel
An inherent beauty, the depth of which is beyond words, you’re truly one of a kind, dearest Annabel, who, through kindness and creativity, inspire my spirit, warm my heart, and blanket each day with joy.
