    At Twenty-five (For Janis Ian)

    At Twenty-five (For Janis Ian)Listening to Janis Ian's AT SEVENTEEN, I wondered  where the girl in the song would be and how she would feel just a few years later?  So, I wrote...AT TWENTY-FIVE (Dedicated to Janis Ian)It was long...

    • Hoi hoi
      Hope this finds you well?

      I’ve been reading your writes with very much pleasure.
      Even our musical tastes seem to have parallels.
      The first Verve and Capitol LP’s by Janis Ian are still proudly in my cupboard and on my record player.
      If you want to have the Janis Joplin recordings in Het Concertgebouw in Amsterdam, please let me know.

      I’ll PM you for the rest.

      Please keep those writes of yours coming.

      Kind regards, Gus

    • This is amazing. Love the lyrical poetry and the meaning behind it.

    • Lots of truth to this, but not all. I know the trophy wives. I had crushes on them in High school. Now their married to powerful men. Life is an odd thing sometimes.

      My last comment for you. You’re very talented, good luck with your writing. 🙂

    Gothic Erotica (Part One)

           Night bore witness to our wild union. It was a hot night along the arched passageway leading into the castle chapel from the expanse of the courtyard. The ancient stone passage was torchlit and our...

    Learn To Embrace Yourself (Advice for young writers)

    Forget how to love and learn how to hate. That's my advice for young, audacious writers.   Learn to embrace who you really are. Forget the facades that are flattery.   Forget gregariousness and learn when to be silent. Forget bullshitting and learn not...

    • Phenomenally penned, Tim. Another fantastic collection my friend. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • hello dearest Tim I wonder besides rain what these poems have in them that weave them together there is something ominous I can sense… great write 💕

    • Ahhh! 🌧

      What could be better, My Good Friend Tim, than a captivating soliloquy of imaginative Free Verse poetry from the rainbow of your dancing pen, creatively presenting the wonders of “Rain” to fill and soothe our parched imaginations.

      Nice rhymes ‘n imagery in Poem 1, and your artwork choice sets the perfect mood.
      I enjoyed each offering … particularly:

      “For an hour, the sky recites
      poems from heaven
      and I listen…mesmerized.”

      Outside my window, rain’s forecast today … I’m keeping my best umbrella and shiny red boots handy!
      Good stuff, Syr Poet … much enjoyed, as usual! ⁓ Rascal🖌

      150/100

      • Haha, shiny red boots? Thank you Richard, your comments are always entertaining and interesting. It’s always good to know there’s a master of poetry around. 🙂

    • Quite a collection, Sir Tim.
      Especially the woman in the window piece. Yet, the beginning obviously draws the reader in, with the vivid imagery. Well stocked stack of art, this.
      And good to see you here.
