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.

Playing with Words
Prompt:
Have fun with these words: explode, promote, reasonable, density, composition, compose, moment, prediction, reconcile and shallow.

How I Write
when thoughts of *density take hold
a *composition I muse, wild and bold
can I *reconcile dreams I might chase
and *reasonable lines I may place?
thus a *moment hangs by a fragile thread
while stars *explode, my fears are fed
I stand and face a *prediction unfound
to *promote my words, my rhymes rebound
beneath my plight, *shallow brooks flow
I *compose this poem and whisper low
ideas in fragments line up to be named
for after the chaos, my storm is tamed
