Poems, Poetry and The Haiku
I love writing poems almost as much as I love reading them. I just had to share with others my love of Great Poetry, Famous Poets and my own attempts at Prose.
My Favorite types of poetry are Haiku, Sonnets and free verse. The following is a Haiku that I wrote recently. Although it does conform to the rules of Haiku and is about nature; I like to experiment with different topics such as love and romance.

Appreciating Poetry
Coming Full Circle
There are so many Famous Poets who have left us with a legacy of great poetry like William Shakespeare, Robert Frost and the unforgettable Edgar Allen Poe. Each of these Poets has their own unique approach to writing poetry but all have mesmerized and captured our hearts.
So to truly appreciate poetry is to read it. To love it is to be inspired. To inspire is to write it for others to read -- Coming Full Circle.

Weave a web of black darkness
One by one, they fall

Cry
He has the edge of me, the quill,
and the waves of prolong prose.
The hands move, they write with no
purpose but to disappear into death minds.
Meanings of grief,
turning into dark stone, tear drop become
ice drops, reach the end, and break
into dry whispers of cry.
