Poet of the week

We have the absolute honor this week of celebrating the amazingly talented Chris +Chris Frazier her poetry is divinely written, a true artist of words she paints for us numerous sensual scenes pairing them delightfully with amazing images. Chris, always has a kind word of encouragement and support for all the poets she comes across, a true treasure to the POETS community.


My breath, dear poet...

Sweep me, dear poet
off my feet
off the page
with something sweet
with words, in verse
lines of love I can engage...

Your thoughts expressed
like breath to me
I pause, for the next inhale
of love hidden in your poetry
The way you write softly, passionately
dear poet, I'm swept helplessly, happily

adrift in the words composed for me...
