The great thing about poetry is that it can give the reader insight into someone's life. You can capture a moment in the life of a person.
But greater than that, is if the poem strikes a universal code. If you can achieve this, then sometimes you have actually put into words what someone else might have felt or is feeling right now.
I enjoy sharing my writing and I hope you will come back in to read it.

Monday will be another Treasure Hunt. This time for Beautiful Flowers. Please come and comment for a chance to win a free ACEO. Last week we had eleven qualified people to make the drawing. To be qualified, all you have to do is make the loop of participating artists. There are links to the next person in line. We would love to break that record. Can you help us do that?
I'm a happy grandmother! I enjoy my family, my friends, and my life. I love to travel and love to post travel experiences. I like to 'piddle'. Are you familiar with that southern term? I would love to have you sign up to follow this humble blog. I need all the encouragement I can get. :) My name is Carole.
