| APRIL IS NATIONAL POETRY MONTH My poetry telegram |
MY POETRY TELEGRAM -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- April is National Poetry Month THE WAY I FEEL Poetry is one of my best friends It’s the love song of all ages Pleasure without end Young and old alike, can sing and enjoy the beauty of the rhyme It can be read at any hour, day or night Or just any old time It doesn’t take a college degree Just a love of simple things bringing joy to me Like the Autumn leaves All the joy that an April shower brings A December snow storm A walk in the park Or listening to the sound of an Eastern Meadow Lark When I write poetry, I understand me It is like looking inside a mirror Soul searching in my head A voice inside myself That I do not dread I discover who I am A special breed of person Acquainted with the Great “I Am” I take a second glance I am not here by chance I’ve been put here in this time and space For a reason, and I have a purpose I am not looking back This relationship will last and last I am no stranger, this is the new me I’ve been born again by the Blood of Jesus And set totally free I am a Daughter of the Lion of Judah Member of the Jesus Tree He purchased my soul at Calvary I was blind, but now I see He set my feet on a narrow path To love him more than anything Is all he’s ever ask The wonderful world of poetry Refreshes my spirit like spring rain The words of the moment Call to me over and over again Singing soft gentle music To a world so out of place Please read and enjoy the treat Listen and taste Poetry is like a drink of water for a thirsty soul These magic words express what I know And cannot speak The shyness of the moment Is forgotten and boldly spoken In a language, short and sweet Dear wonderful readers May you lose your troubles And float along on gentle breezes Let the wind of the spirit Take you to a higher place As you let your joy bubble SINCE THIS IS NATIONAL POETY MONTH This is my way of celebrating Please come join me in my little kitchen corner Let’s drink a cup of wonderful brew. I want you to know that I love each and every one of you All my love Mary Alice Bowles 4/3/06 |
