Started listening to this book..very interesting on a abstract topic.

She recommends reading historical poetry and to get acquainted with rhyme and form.

Her readers and followers often ignore this.

Unfortunately!

I'll be sure to take better and more photos. But proof I attended this concert of early 20th century and modern composers at a brewery this past weekend.

Part of a concert series by local Steinway gallery.

The thoughts on music and improv were of interest.

BTW, June is National Audiobook Month! As declared by the 'Audio Publishers Association' (APA) in 1998.
If you want to enjoy some spoken verse, and peddle a penny to a poet! - Feel free, cheers 🍻 <<

Took some time yesterday to teach poetry to children! Described its history and even wrote a poem based on their suggestions!

Children are our future and it was an honor🎖.

I guess I've been on Spotify for most of it's life. Discovered while studying in France.
James Booker being my first is no surprise, and I've that album on vinyl, hence the low listening count!

But also, Bach is just forever! ✨️<<

I don't favor writing prompts, but can't deny they've produced some of my best work.
Rarer do I give them- here's one I came up with upon request.

Prompt: Write (poetically) what a scientific phenomenon means to a person or group of persons.

Sending out!

does everyone have an 'Art: What's Hot?' tab? or is that just because I'm an artist?

I know no two peoples 'feeds' look the same (on any platform) but I'm genuinely curious as to what others see in their feeds on 'BlueSky'.

Literature and blog article posts for me. (music too)

This short but powerful poem but one of the best to ever do it.

Robert Hayden was a revelation of a discovery for me. Including for the obvious reasons.

I bathe in the music of the baroque on the near daily. Purcell is one of the great composers 'pre-Bach' - also collaborated with John Dryden, England's first Poet Laureate. Will have to discover and share... *of course, he was a keyboardist and organist. #poetry #music #history #liberalarts

The Met acknowledges that 'poetry' is used to describe the highest achievements an individual can achieve.

A common happening for something described as 'archaic' and 'vain'.

a brief poem, with some sense of hilight on linguistics.

there are some visual sketches that reflect this poem, one that even moves. Could share or revisit.

we're all walking novels.

As it's the larger collection, much of what I share comes from my first collection 'Peregrinations'.

I wrote this book as a way to discover poetry for myself and it as an art form.

Comes with bookmark and handwritten poem!

One of the poems someone has pointed out as being one of their favorites.

It's a love poem, that exhibits structure in repetition and rhyme, with a 'turn' towards the end.

I've recited a few times.

Another famous work. One of the most influential poets, many ladies have mentioned her in revere especially.

I concur.

I'd like to spend more time with her. I understand the past has shades of grey.

a steamy poem from my first collection.

I like this one, but envision that is read by a 'lady' if you will.

Though I don't mind reading/reciting it now and again.

*rare case of pop culture reference**

a poem of loneliness of cosmic proportions.

from my own collection.

I'm personally fond of this poem, and it seems to stand on its own in reaching towards an inner life that seems distant from the day-to-days.

Here's a recent pic of my most recent performance. Will share soon.

But again, an active poet in the community.

Book fair on the horizon!

Words have a lot of prayer, much of the oldest preserved verse is in the form of prayer.

In that vein, an encouragement for the journey.

A well known and excellent example of a villanelle, a complex poetry form, by famed Welsh poet Dylan Thomas.

Very English, clear as day. Full of theatrical spirit

'Waterlillies'

Tracing waterlillies with my finger
brings me joy, a toyful linger
Bathed in greenery, bundles and bushels
Tumbling hills, guffaws and some whistles
Flowers, bountiful-magnetize the pond

I'm not parent, but I am someone's son.

My poetry defies that every work has to be a diary entry.

Very often people ask me about the experiences in my work as if I lived them, but only through imagination.

From my own work, 'Peregrinations'.
