HER OLIVES: Cover Image

Hello Poetteers,


It's the end of the blogfest, yet you can always go back. The link is open until the book's release. Today is the start of the blog tour.

Finding the Right Girl

First she was just a drawing
changed to
her dress was short
needing too be modest
found one
but her seating inappropriate
found a third
long sleeved, skirt wearing
girl in boots
if you look closely
she even looks Arab
prefect
the one for HER OLIVES.

Love and thank you, Fida

What a beautiful poem! Simple yet powerful, I really liked them this way.
I used to write poems (not that great) but it's really been a while. Hopefully I will get inspired one of these days and just, write it out. In the meantime, I will settle by reading yours. :)

Book Tour: Timeless by Crystal Collier

Hello Poetteers,  Let's welcome Crystal Collier here today to share her brand new book!

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.

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. It is an unflinching narrative on how hurt is cyclical, how recovery must be redefined repeatedly, and how shame can poison us in the worst ways. I See How You've Kept Me by Aisha Adams A debut poetry book that takes you through a journey of brokenness to reach complete healing. May The...

Personal Interpretation of The Tortured Poets  Dear readers, I enjoy reading a song and analyzing the lyrics. I love being able to detect the story she's telling while also interpreting it. I develop my own personal connection. Here's a breakdown why some of the lyrics have become my favorite. no one here to blame, what about your quiet treason. the betrayal brought her depression and she’s attempting to move on but the forced energy isn’t healing. It's about struggling with a traumatic situation alone because no one noticed the changes in you. The narrator is envious of those living peaceful lives and frustrated that friends found better people to be with. I've seen this episode and still loved the show, I've read this one where you come undone, I chose this cyclone with you. Depending on the perspective you choose it's about the guilt and regret for getting in your own way or willing to stay with someone through their mental illness. The voices in his head cal...
