Poetry to open your heart
/Poetry is magical. I am in awe of those who use words to they elevate ideas and communicate directly with our hearts. Here’s a favorite, and I will share others from time to time.
Reading powerful poems has inspired me to write my own, too.
Why not play with words to express what you are feeling and thinking? Your poems need not rhyme. Simply start with an idea or emotion and see what emerges as you chose and arrange words with brevity, playfulness, fresh imagery, and joy.
True Joy
Release the past
Release the pain
Look forward
Smile
This place
Is where I’m meant to be
My true calling
My destiny
To be in joy
To bring on joy
To celebrate
Me
Excited
Amazed
Open
Is who I want to be
Ready for a
New adventure
Diving into the unknown
Rising
Up
Up
Up
And taking the world
Along for the ride.
