Why write a blog? Simple, writing is a partnership: writer and reader required. Why now? Simple, why not now?
Why "Milk and Honey"? Cause milk is the necessity...we need to milk to grow. "Milk" is the word of GOD. HE is my daddy. The giver of my gift. I worship and adore Him. "Honey" is the nicety...we need honey to make us smile.
Thus begins this blog journey. I plan to post my original poetry, short stories..whatever God leads me to post. So come back and visit from time to time. I'll be here. Enjoying a warm glass of milk and a spoonful of honey.
Poetic Soul
copyright 2007
Poetry is...
Thanksgiving dinner: mac and cheese, Grandma's collard greens, sweet potatoes and buttermilk pie
It makes me full, but I sneak another plate
Poetry is...
Wet sloppy kisses, touches, caresses, midnight snacks and satisfied smiles
It leaves me wanting more
Poetry is...
Riding bikes fast down hills, friends on the handle bars
Grape Now or Later from the corner store
Rushing home before the street lights come on
It creates memories and brings me joy
Poetry is...
Flicking on the kitchen light watching the cockroaches scatter
Past due notices piled up on the table
Disconnected phone lines and Banquet pot pies
It makes me stronger
Poetry is...
Earth, Wind and Fire, The Commodores...easy like Sunday Morning
A Wonder like Stevie...makes me weak and knocks me off my feet
It is music for my soul
Turn it up! Turn it up!
