Poet of the week

Happy Wednesday!

Dennis has been blessing our stream with some truly amazing poetry this week, impressively introspective, he has been exploring what it is to be human and the very many aspects of this. Dennis is a truly valued member of the POETS community, encouraging and supporting his fellow poets and actively engaging with the poetry and poets. Well done Dennis! +Dennis Gatheright

IT CAN HAPPEN
Regardless,
Of the stress or mess,
Dreams come true,
Nightmares do too,
What is the choice?
Do we listen to the positive or negative voice?
What advice is taken?
Which decision is forsaken?
How does the thought persuade?
What is the price that is paid?
Happy or sad?
Glad or mad?
The conclusion,
We choose reality or a delusion,
