this week's Substack reflects on national poetry month and the importance of poetry in our lives from childhood to our elder years. how poetry can deepen conversations around difficult conversations. and can be playful too. i include on of my own poems at the end. i hope you take time to read...and are taking tender care of yourself and take time to find a poem that touches your heart today. here's a taste "but why poetry? emily dickinson is credited with saying “tell the truth, but tell it slant.” poetry uses plain language, simile, metaphor, and more (often within the same poem) to reflect what is happening in the world. it appeals to a broad range of folks (what i like may not be what you like and vice versa…and that’s okay!) it is composed in many forms. approached differently by different cultures. sometimes words are used. some say painting is a form of poetry. or photography. or dance. song writing. or…(name an art form.) [...] "poetry opens our hearts to sorrow. to grief. to witness what is unbearable. to joy. to dark and light. to imagine the impossible. poetry allows us to step out of our bodies and immerse ourselves in Forest, Ocean, Desert, Moon, be the howl of Wolf or song of Whale. poems are written in times of war. in times of peace. in times of prosperity and want. there are poems for every season of life. and poems for death and beyond. [...] i ... use poetry in my call whether it is coming alongside folks on their Grief journeys, in facilitating labyrinth walks, offering education in my areas of expertise, wherever my life touches others because poetry reaches beyond the typical back-and-forth of conversation. to share a poem and ask folks to write, draw, ponder a response to a line or image that touches them has deepened many experiences." #poetry #poems #national_poetry_month #griefandloss #griefjourneys #griefsupport #spiritualcompanionship #spiritualdirection #lifejourneys #nurtureyourjourney #deeplistening #deepconversations #connecting #Substack #sorrow #witnessing #joy #seasonsoflife
