Do you read my monthly poetry competitions list? Has it helped you get published, win a prize, residency or bursary? Or encouraged you to send your work out? Tell me your poetry list success stories, please! PS. It's my birthday & I want to celebrate my poetry peeps. Pls share!
I feel intensely
Do you?
I value values immensely
I'm sure that you do too
My moral compass comes to defend me
Regardless of what you say
Still I stay calm for the gift of refinement
When it guides me to alignment

Green leaves change
As much to arrange
The starting point from the end
For us all to see
The simplicity
Of life's forward strides from what's been
#poetry#poetrycommunity
Elation pronounced in my every last ounce
I vibrate like the fate of the world
Overjoyed as I glide in transition
My pride spills to meet the seas side and connect
#poetrycommunity#poetry
I am in heaven
Whenever I am near you
Nobody around me knows who I am
They don't need to know me
As the true me is my gift to you

A reminder:
When no one publishes you, keep writing.
When no one pays attention to you, keep writing.
When rejection comes, keep writing.
When there's drama, keep writing.
When you can't pay your bills, keep writing.
When you land a deal/agent, keep writing.
Just keep writing.
