Thanks Erik. Keep singing that song! “For me, poetry is not merely an escape but a return—a healing balm that reminds us of what is most essential, the invisible truths that lie beyond the grasp of reason yet sustain the soul’s deepest longings.” Amen 🙏 Thanks for being a bridge.
Poetry helps us cross it. Blessings. You make it better ❤️
Thanks from me too. The choice of these poems is inspirational and such an important reminder of what should be the priorities in all of our lives, and of the responsibilities we have to each other.
Damn, Erik, what an awesome treat! Berry and Mary are two long-time favorites (greats!), didn't know Channing, but he's a revelation (special!), your comments are beautifully profound (already a fan of your writing and poetry), fabulous photo! (man of many talents), another excellent post.... Thanks, again.
Dear Writer of PoeticOutlaws,
The introduction you wrote for this piece brings more poetry to the table than the poetry brought in the poems you chose to bring poetry. THANK YOU!

Thank you! Happy New Year!
A wonderful trio to start the New Year! I needed this!!
How happily this rezzzonates in every fiber. The opening quote: Worthy-while quotable! ( not every quote is ;)
Such a fine way to begin a year which will hold more of chaos, corruption, criminality, and confusion as any that have come before.
Happy New Year! And thank you.❤️
