Sense the domain hooked to this site does not run out for some months you will on occasion see a post here. To check out my new blog go to my author’s site link below.  bydoriselaine.com

A Poem for Thought

Understanding: Embracing Being Poor Experiencing something hard can bring understanding Where your spirit can be truly tested Being poor, hard to embrace notwithstanding This condition mentally and physically demanding Where stress did rise; however, was rested Experiencing something hard can bring understanding In struggling, life can leave you standing Where understanding is then digested Being poor, hard to embrace notwithstanding The fact you made it through is outstanding Where your knowledge was infested Experiencing something hard can bring understanding As this condition becomes longstanding Where experience then is congested Being poor, hard to embrace notwithstanding Your life now you embrace expanding Where your spirit was invested Experiencing something hard can bring understanding Being poor, hard to embrace notwithstanding    ©Doris Elaine

A Rhyme Form for The Season

This form is Acrostic. It spells out something diagonally on the left side of each line. This form is a bit of a challenge to create in a rhyming poem.

Here the poem and the accompanying  profile. Notice: My early poems did not rhyme much or not at all. I learned throughout my years of writing poems, that I love to write rhyming poems. But, content still exist. Don't Eliminate Me! Don't look at what I have been, But what I am! Don't hold me back because of my mistakes, But let me excel because of my skills! Don't look at my failures, But look at my accomplishments! Don't look at my past, But look at my future! Don't eliminate me because I'm not perfect, Because neither are you! Authors Profile: I wrote this poem as a reflection for all of us whom at some point in their lives had made a wrong choice; and that wrong choice changed our lives forever. My poem is a plead to everyone to remember our miscalculations when we see others who deserve a ch
