Kicking off National Poetry Writing Month (NaPoWriMo), I share these contemplations by

Poems and Poetry: A Blind Man’s Thoughts
by Frederick Douglass Grimes, III
What Is the true definition of a poem? It has many meanings to many different people. It can be a special way to express one’s deepest and most heartfelt feelings for another. It can also be a way to unburden oneself from life’s stressful moments.
When you combine the heart and the mind together, what you have Is a recipe for whatever you feel is on your mind. Poems are also one of life’s most beautiful ways to tell someone how much you deeply care and can’t come up with the courage to do so.
Poetry Is as much a part of life as water and sunshine are to a flower. How sad this world of ours would be If not for the raw, pure, emotional art form we call poetry!
God Bless all of the poets, past and present of the world. And may God bless us all.
Sincerely,
The Blind Poet, Freddy G.
