Poem Artwork

poetry
was conceived
at the same
time i was.
just didn't
know it then.

while i was
knocking knees
and bumping
elbows with
my sister
in the womb,

it was there,
a heartbeat
away, as
close as my
ears:  didn't
hear its voice.

no way to
record the
memories
and wonders
of childhood
until now.

old now.  i
look at the
sepia'd
photographs
of strangers
i . don't .. know ...

(c) 2009, Karla Dorman (11/13)

Who are you sis? You are the author of all that is written in your soul, you are the storyteller that writes to entertain us, and let out those pent up emotions. Who are you sis? You are the author of the poetry that spews forth from your mind that you write with pen, or keyboard. Who are you sis? You are a child of God Almighty and He is there when you need him. Who are you sis? You are me, you are Karen, your are Regis, you are all of us that read your wonderful works because when we read we become a part of each other. That IS who you are; a wonderfully talented writer that knows the value of a word. Thank you for sharing.

May the Lord Jesus bless you, and those whom you love, and who love you, and be with you always, and at your side constantly. With much love in my heart, joy to the world, peace on earth, & ((((((((((MANY WONDERFUL SISTERLY HUGGGGSSSS)))))))))), your den sister, Barbie.

OLD! -- artistic license for certain -- young, and flourishing with the creative thoughts of the young, that is who you are Karla -- your poem comes from a novel and refreshing perspective I would not have thought of -- peace and love my dear friend -- Jon Michael

Karla,
Love the leap you make here, the poetry inside (inside the womb even) is the poetry of a life lived and experienced over the years.
Very fine indeed.

I truly believe that writing is somewhat divinely inspired, thus, I agree with your premise that poetry was born along with you. Good piece here Karla. Take care.
