Scattered Flowers – #MemorialDay #Poetry

Death and Shadows
Fire and light
Exploding Shells
Through the Harrowing Night,

Tears and Sorrow
Guns and Ammo
Flags in the Dust
Soldiers in Camo,

Courage and Honor
Distinction by Hours
Memory Lasting
Scattered Flowers.

In Loving Remembrance of all those who have and who still do serve this country/ Every country.  On this day of Honour as we recall the sacrifices made, it may be the best time of all to understand that ALL soldiers serve for love of their own country and to protect and honour the way of life THEY hold dear.  Right or Wrong, Truth or Lies, the Soldier carries the heaviest burden.

Courage- #MemorialDay #Poetry

If not for the photographer’s Lens,
Would we Truly See?

If not for the Poet’s Words,
Would we Truly Appreciate?

If not for the Courage of the Soldier,
Would we Truly Understand?

Darkness Settles- #MemorialDay Tribute #Poetry

Darkness Settles

Spanning the Hours

Tears Fall

Like November Showers.

A Shaking Head,

Stare of Confusion,

Deep Shuddering Breath,

Then

Darkness Settles

Spanning the Hours.

Whispers in Verse – #Poetry for Stillness and #Mindfulness

 

I’m honored by this incredible 5-Star review of my poetry book, Whispers in Verse, and simply had to share it with you.

Whispers in Verse reads as if written on the wings of angels. These poems touch the soul. I found myself reading many of them over and over while I let the feeling of the words and phrases wash over me. Every poem in this volume of poetry has a calming understanding effect. Not only that, each poem takes you into a different mood or feeling and brings peace, gently. These are not poems you will rush through. They are meditative, explanatory and wondrous.

All through the read, I had the feeling that this author has the ability to tap into higher consciousness to pull sentiment down from the Heavens and to translate it for our understanding. Morgan writes like a person tuned into a Higher Source. Then I came to the end which is where Morgan describes her ability to write such magnificence. Something that needs to be noticed as well, this book is beautifully formatted with proper placement of poems and with sweet images starting each section. This author and publisher have taken great effort to make the book a thing of beauty to match the poetry it houses.

I have never encountered poems like these that bring feelings of peace and joy and understanding. As such, I cannot recommend this book high enough. Every poem whisks us away from the turmoil and drudgery of today’s world. We are left feeling whole, seeing the world from a different perspective than through our daily drudge. If you are a person who loves bold, garish poetry about the vagaries of life, you may not want to read this volume. Then again, it might do a person good to read these poems to come in touch with all the beauty that abounds despite the cruelties that persist in the world.

If I could give this book a 10, I wouldn’t hesitate. Whispers in Verse is a forever keeper in my library.
