P is for Poetry


Hello, I'm thankful for your love and I have one poem to show that. My other poem is another myna inspired poem. I hope you enjoy both:

Post Camp Depression

You are all of a sudden alone
after days of being with a big group
of course you're sad

You gained a high
after doing everything together
you try to keep that high
with your memories.

Poetry

All I do is express myself
they read it
And say it touches their heart
it gives them all these emotions
and I'm forever sharing with them
I'm forever grateful for the gift God gave me.

Memories are sparkling remnants of the best times and should be actively sought and gathered to light our way through the dark times. =)

I relate to the feeling expressed in the first poem. I use to do mission work and I would direct teams where they needed to go, cook for tons of people and work with so many children. I loved it. I loved being part of something big. Its hard when its just you again.Simply Sarah

Upcoming Poetry Reads of 2021, Part 2

Hello Poetteers,  I'm sharing more poetry books I discovered and am excited to read! March Coming Home to Her By Emily Juniper It is a celebration of being human. It is a coming out journey, an exploration of sexuality, femininity, loving, and being loved. How to Bloom By Tatyana White Jenkins A collection of poems about the enthralling, complex, grueling, and beautiful journey of growth. April The Gravity Inside Us By Chloe Frayne  An ode to whatever it is we carry that pulls us in and out of place, and speaks so insistently of fate. The Medicine That Burns by Molly S Hillery It is a raw declaration on what a life of trauma can look like after the dust settles and the poems have happy endings.

Publishers That Publish Poetry Books

Hello Poetteers, As I was doing my own research for poetry publishers this question popped up on my feed: Does anyone know any publishers that publish poetry books? Later on, while hosting #PoetteerChat I asked what everyone’s plan is for a year from now. Most of you said to be published. I promised a list of publishers, so here’s the top 7 I found. Along with the publisher, I will mention the poets they represent. I want to work with someone I can trust. Seeing familiar names makes them more trustable in my opinion. Andrew McMeel - has published Amanda Lovelace, Lang Leav, Rupi Kaur and more.  Dancing Girl Press - has published our very own Amanda N. Butler.  Bottlecap Press - has published Courtney LeBlanc  Button Poetry - has published Olivia Gatwood, Sierra DeMulder and more.  Two Sylvias Press - has published Jeannine Hall Gailey, Kelli Russell Agodon, Martha Silano and more.  Write Bloody - has published Sarah Kay, Andrea Gibson and more.
