It made you write great poetry sis!!

Love Tinka

Karla, this is a great poem! I'm must admit I'm addicted too...but I love it and wouldn't have it any other way.

I bet there are some truly fascinating poems up there!

reading poems
penned in the clouds. <----magnificent thoughts...

and i do love a good thunder and lightning storm-used to be some of the best times playing board games by candle light-

Addicted you may be, but such an enjoyable treat to be addicted to!
Read and write on my friend......

Be safe,
Karen

Karla I too am addicted to books LOL, but there is worse things...
God Bless

Great poem, Karla. The lightning in the photo makes a picture of Florida. That must be symbolic of the rain we received here last night and today. LOL (I guess that makes me addicted--"reading poems in the clouds".

That is the best addiction, I find watching storms flitter across the sky to be more interesting than any written word...e

Your description of "the night as black as bears" immediately reminded me of James Weldon Johnsons' "Creation" You'd love it if you have not read it. Your writing is filled with joyous imagry.

Thanks,
Dan

Another brilliant deliver, Karla. You are soaring on the wings of an eagle...reaching for the stars... Now, how about that book?

God Bless

Karla you are really soaring with your poetry of late! This is brillliant!

Wonderful thoughts here, Karla, and what I love about THESE forms of reading is that they interact with our brain and emotions so much quicker than lumpy written words on a page, which are often slow and lugubrious to express the quintessential "thing"... much like my reviews! :)) In an instant you get the whole story here... and only YOU know what it is saying! I think it's saying "Ya-boo, Karla, here I am trying to scare you.. but I ain't getting too far cos you is down there, reading me thoughts..."!! :)) LOL K xx

true. you know. thanks for this imaginative write. luck

Fantastic. Enojoyed the imagery of this wonderful poem. Your brother and friend, Abdi-Noor

What a wonderful write my friend, we are cut from the same cloth...when our electric went out the last time, I too found myself readng by candle light! Great write, nothing wrong with being addicted to writing, the world is falling apart, and many are dieing from other addictions. So, I say our type of addiction is okay! You keep reading and writing my friend, as I will too...it's our destiny! Enjoyed!
Blessings,
Joyce B.

"The night, as black as bears"...WOW, what an image! I love the whole package! Very well done from beginning to end; brava! And that last stanza...LOL

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin sis, Karen Lynn. :D
