Last year during the month of April I posted a bunch of poems. That may be a good way for me to get back into the habit of blogging. I recently fell in love with the work of Nikki Giovanni, spent the winter reading her. I wrote this about her in January.
to Nikki
Woman, you are a Priestess of poetry,
bringing us the talk of God
in the voice of the Goddess
like it should fall in a woman's ears
and if Heaven thought to talk
of mortal life and love
of the doings and goings on
of we little humans
way down here
This is beautiful. I wish she could read it.
ReplyDeleteHappy Poetry month to you too.
Thanks!! I'd love for her to read it, but I'd be nervous, too. Thank you!
