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!

Watch
You face time in platinum,
the limited edition,
epitome of style,
crafty hands,
back and forward
forward and back,
a perpetual sarcasm
from a single crown
adjusting to the local time
via date’s declaration
--the day, the month, the years--
benefiting short-sightedness
with an oversized calendar
and the seasonal review
changing constantly
as life fine-tunes
to your dateline.
