Crafting Poetry One Syllable at a Time
When Life Gives You Lemons…Write Poetry! #Poetry #WritingCommunity #IARTG #ASMSG #TANKA #CINQUAIN #HAIBUN @ColleenChesebro #tryingnewthings – Author D.L. Finn
D.L. (Denise) Finn has gone through a series of traumatic events this year. However, what thrilled me was how she immersed herself in the learning of a new craft – writing syllabic poetry! Her star shines bright.
Denise said, “When I write it (poetry), I’m visiting my soul, where I can reflect on my emotions and life.”
I can’t think of a better way to heal than spending time in nature and writing syllabic poetry! Please join me in wishing Denise a speedy recovery! Stop by, read her story and her poetry. Don’t forget to tell her hello. ❤
From D.L. Finn: “It’s been a strange sixteen months for me on many levels. There were several deaths of pets, friends, and family, plus a period of things breaking. Then came 2020 with high expectations. Halfway through this year, I find myself wishing for someone to shut down the rest of the year...”
