MORE THOUGHTS ON WORDS AND THEIR POWER

THE POWER OF WORDS

Author's Notes/Comments: 

DOING A POEM A DAY FOR NATIONAL POETRY MONTH...WAS LISTENING TO ARCHIVES IN A PROGRAM I AM IN AND THERE WAS A CREATIVE VISUALIZATION THAT SHOWED JUST HOW POWERFUL WORDS ARE...THE MORAL OF THE STORY... WORDS YOU USE CREATE FEELINGS WHICH CAN LEAD TO HEALTH ISSUES AMONG OTHER THINGS...IT IS REALLY FASCINATING...IMAGINATION IS A POWERFUL TOOL TOO...

Shining Very Bright

Author's Notes/Comments: 

We all have a dark side that contrasts with the light. I suppose opposites are necessary to compare but always strive towards the light...positive vibes,peace,love, higher vibrations....try to block out the negative dark stuff...that is the gist of this poem written a day early for the last day of #NationalPoetryMonth #NaPoMo #PoemADay #April2021 #Day30

Lost Cause

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I always say those who think they know it all know nothing at all and those who know they don't are the ones that really know...something like that...not sure if that is exactly how I wanna word it but is what is coming out now...just an observation...I think it's more like the ones who know they don't know are the smart ones and the ones who think they know it all have a lot to learn...that sounds right... for #Day28 #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoemADay #April2021

Fresh Morning Dew

Author's Notes/Comments: 

I recently got into the habit of having some fresh celery juice in the morning along with my organic juice cleanse and coffee with cinnamon and coconut oil and chocolate almond milk then a little later a banana and a few hours later a bowl of organic oatmeal with cinnamon,raisins,coconut oil,chia seeds and sometimes unsweetened cinnamon appleasauce...anyway that celery juice reminds me of the morning dew and it is so refreshing to drink. I love it and it is really healthy for you. It's good for lots of things and really feels like drinking in the fresh morning dew...anyway that is what inspired today's poem... #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoemADay #April2021 #Day27

Strange World

Author's Notes/Comments: 

The Writer's Digest poetry prompt for today was to write a poem from a title blank world...so I chose Strange World mostly because my sister told me about a show yesterday on Netflix called The Circle that is very strange. It is reality TV that I usually do not watch but it's a game. It makes you wonder about how much of this stuff really happens online hence Strange World...so inspired by something I was watching yesterday and the title prompt... #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #April2021 #PoemADay #Day26

Reverse Psychology

Author's Notes/Comments: 

A memory popped into my head this morning about when I learned about reverse psychology and decided to try it and see how it worked. My mom had grounded me for something stupid I don't remember why but usually I would just stay in my room and pout about it. I decided to try reverse psychology so I started following my mom around. I was like Hi mom,what are we doing? I'm grounded so I am gonna hang around with you. I was right up on her every move...within a few minutes she was like Get outta here! I was like but I can't I'm grounded, remember? She was like not anymore. Get out of here! So my first try with reverse psychology worked like a charm...Ha Ha! Decided to write a poem about Reverse Psychology... #NaPoMo #NationalPoetryMonth #PoemADay #April2021 #Day25
