Lulu's Poetry

A WORD ON POETRY FROM LULU

Poetry is a finger made up of words that touches your heart! Poetry is a song that comes from the soul. Like a beautiful Rose it is delicate and fragile, and emanates its sweet aroma in words. I have been writing poetry since I was a little girl, and still continue to this day. I only write poetry when I am inspired by love, beauty or pain. I don't worry too much about punctuation or writing rules. I have learned that worrying too much about these things stifles creativity. The poem should flow and deliver its message to the reader's heart. This is the difference between poetry and other kinds of writing which have to be more structured.

A POEM TO GOD IN A TIME OF FEAR

There was a time fear didn’t grip my heart and I was happy and confident, the chill of winter came with it a chill so cold.

I fear for me, and my chicks for them to die and be uncovered far from my love. Shattered dreams the potter burning the clay, it’s burning in a fiery furnace. When will this heat stop? I am tired, weary and afraid.

The elixir of your promises keep me going, your strength I draw from, infinite strength and power that you give me. Whales milk with fat and nourishment so, that I will grow strong, healthy and rule the sea. To overcome this disease I drink from your milk. You are my Father and Mother, you are my savior my everything.
