About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Prompt: Please use these fun words in your entry today: reactor, sorcery, reality, tension, nuances, patronize, and forfend,
(In case you're wondering forfend relates to some kind of real or pretended danger. Sometimes in comedic writing it appears as heaven forfend as a substitute for heaven forbid.) Have fun!

---------
note: This was fun! I think I used all the words.
Btw, I live about 15 miles away from a nuclear power plant. Heaven Forfend!


In a Nuclear Power Plant

science and magic blur and blend
as alchemy's new friend

not for people who *patronize,
but for seekers, bold and wise,
*Forfend! here *nuances bloom
with mortal spies, in this boom

for now rules *tension's dance
as *reality and fission prance
*sorcery beats the nuclear drum,
in the heart of *reactor's hum

science and magic blur and blend
as alchemy's new friend
