Life is poetry

Life is poetry
I process emotions, struggle and strife
In poems, they’re to me the essence of life.
The early sun on a beautiful dawn,
Walking barefoot on a little moist lawn,
A new born child on its mother’s chest,
A musical masterpiece performed at its best.
Moments all’s connected beyond any norms
Are poems that life recites and performs.

It was Open Link Night at dVerse, Grace was hosting and any poem is welcome. And as hardly anyone read it back then I used it again for the 18.01.2024 when Björn is hosting. I hope I can join the virtual bar on Saturday. Come and join us now or another time

Love this part specially: The early sun on a beautiful dawn.
Thanks, Grace!
I love walking barefoot like that… dew on my feet is music
„Walking barefoot on a little moist lawn,“ – favourite line, and one of favourite feelings.
Thanks
A lovely reminder of the power of the written word to evoke joy!
Aww, thank you so much!
Jan, you really encapsulate the interconnectedness of life’s moments and emotions!

Thank you, David
I like the flow of the rhymes, Jan, and yes, life is poetry.
Thank you, Kim
Great to revisit.
Thanks
I really like the thought of life’s moments being poems of lived experience. Nice poem, Jan!
Thank you, Kim,
My reply seems to have gotten lost, so I’ll add a new thought.
Remember when we first met, it was poetry and your workshop on storytelling sparked inspiration to write (more) poems again. 😉
I will never forget that, Jan! I think it will be the one and only time any of my conference sessions inspired poetry – and that poem was so lovely. I’m so glad you’re back into poetry mode!
As someone who lacks good verbal communication skills, prose and poetry are my tools to convey messages in the nicest way. Life is indeed poetry, beautifully put ^^.
Thank you
Deceptively simple with rhymes delineating transcendental moments in life…
Thank you!
Nice to „meet you“ and hear you read today at the LIVE event, Jan. I do remember reading some of your poems before and good to put a person behind the words while reading them now. Really connect with the last line here.
Thanks a lot, it was indeed great and I enjoyed the life event a lot.
You’re very welcome, Jan.
Jan it was great to be with you last night (my time) and to hear you read. I can say yes to this, totally agree, and I do love the rhyme scheme too.
Thanks, Paul, I enjoyed this a lot as well. Looking forward to more inspiration and exchange with you and the other like minded poets from dVerse!
Yes, me too, they’re a thoughtful lot.
It was great to meet you and hear you read yesterday.
Lovely–„moments all connected.“
Thanks, Merril,
I enjoyed the „live“ encounter a lot as well. Hope to read and see you soon again!
You’re welcome, Jan!
