Poem Artwork


i want to grab you by the eye
and pull you into my world, make
you see, make you be -

o, to have that power ...

poets have that power - to pull
the reader in with just a wave
of the magic wand -

the pen that's in your hand -

like lightning in the sky, we can
change the world in a single flash -
one word can do it -

listen to it thunder!  :)

(c) 2007, Karla Dorman (9/29)

I especially love your opening line, "I want to grab you by the eye." The rest of the poem follows beautifully, but that opening line could even become my motto...Jerry

The thunder rules and roars. So glad to see you my friend. The poem of mine 'I chose this' was written in 2001 when I was in a dark place. Feeling much better now. Take care my friend.

Excellent Karla. With pens in hands and all as one, we could change the whole world for the best. Why don't we do just that; replace the politicians with poets. Hmmmmmmmmm. Food for thought maybe? May the wind be at your back, the sun shine on your face and the Lord make a home in your heart. Hugs from Paul D. in the mountains of New Hampshire.

W O W, Karla! This is magnificent! Very well done; brava!

"like lightning in the sky, we can
change the world in a single flash -

There's power in your words today, and it is definitely God-inspired! Way to go! Keep on writing, may it soar higher than the Heavens!

The thunder is the sky clearing its throat and then it spits and we call it rain. So now you know, think about it when you write lovingly poems about rain on your face. Take that!!!!!

I understand the indepth pillars of your poetic thought--to touch something so profoundly as to make it a part of your life--such as shaping words about something that pulls an object, occurence, etc. into our atmospheric space. Well done.
