Everflowing Streams

Ars PoeticaI have stories to tell -- from my heart and my memory.I have songs to sing -- in the language of Poetry.With metaphor metonymy and metrical line; with syllables symbols and syncopation; with repetition rhythm and rhyme; with accent anaphora and alliteration;Poetry brings joys and fears to light.In my eighth decade now a life lived long I want transparency to be my way. To tell my tales to sing my songs; to show my happy days and darker nights -- all my joys and fears from yesterday.So I tip my hat to Poetry for all that it can do -- to help me face life honestly and see it all anew.
