A magical life is filled with many things.

Among them may be golden apples,

lingering sunsets, belief in the unseen,

and by all means … poetry.

Poetry fuels transformation.

Poetry is the essence of experience.

Poetry stretches our reality.

Poetry causes us pause to consider.

Poetry needs daydreaming to form.

Share your own poetry.

Share poets who you admire.

Share inspiring writing prompts.

Discuss the process of writing.

Listen.
