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.

========
Keeping Secrets
worries marble
like clouds challenging
with bravado,
in overtures
and expansion,
spreading rumors
of destruction
but you are equipped
with food for thought
similar to prayers, and
a brave gatekeeper
that you are,
after registering the dead,
you lower your pains
stiff and sharp,
into their burial crypts.
