Bri Edwards Sharing Poems

Dusk shall soon overtake the pale blue sky & the sun shall 'set'.
Since I submitted NO December showcase, you now shall GET....
....a January showcase in TWO PARTS, with poems I've favored....
....here on P-H and now share with YOU....so they may be savored...
...

In the 'Add New Poem' instructions PH says 'Take a deep breathe',
but it should say 'breath' [rhymes with death], so I now DO grieve!
It's a grammatical error, one even (I think) 'Bri' has made in the past,
AND I'll bet my high school English teachers would....now be aghast!
...

Bri's Introductory Poem:

' Write a nice title ', or so PoemHunter does say to ME, so…
I guess I should comply, as my time on PoemHunter is FREE!

Bri's 'Showcase-Intro(duction) ' poem:

My 'Showcase' Task & My Requests To Readers

It's not as easy to assemble poems (I like) each month to share with YOU.
I mean it's not as easy as it USED TO BE for me, but I do find a FEW.
...

I plan to start a 'showcase' on my PoemHunter site,
which will NOT be a contest; no need for a fight,
but instead a place where once a month I shall post..
a poem of your choosing, which you would like read most.
...

A -BRI'S INTRODUCTORY POEM:

It's mid-September and the pressure is mounting,
‘cause I KNOW, on me, Bri, you ALL are still counting to place joy, nay, rapture amidst your dull drudgery,
...

February 2019 Showcase Of Poems From Here & There …[ Sharing Poem Hunter Poems With You! ; Topics Are: " Lonely "& "Butterfly" & Assorted Others ]

When I have had ‘bad words' with the one I dearly Love,
thoughts of loneliness may {at my injured mind} Shove,
...

Introductory Poem:

It's October 29th and I'll stay up late to share with you
several P-H poems I've enjoyed, not just one or two.
...

So, now for some information about my first SHOWCASE for PH poets:

Sorry, I've altered some things already, like the title of my lead-in poem, above. In anticipation of a great response [I sent notices to about 50 members so far from my inbox], I have added to my lead-in poem's title 'February,2015: section 'A' '.
...

Nature may be defined as things-of-Earth (excluding humans and ‘their creations') :
Ants - Zebras, Artichokes - Zinnias, Rocks, Water, etc., ….not poems OR nations.

Funny means different things, but mostly I refer to poems which MAY make you laugh,
...

My mother probably taught me to share.....MY food with those I love,
but I've found that I just get too busy to do ALL THAT.....
.......when, into MY mouth, MY food I shove(L) .
...

A dreary day meets my eyes out nearby windows, amongst South Carolina hills.
Perhaps these poems I've gathered from this site will help to ease some little ills.
I don't do much each day except read books and take care of eight red chickens,
so putting together this offering helps me, before my 'almost-depression' thickens.
...

When two spouses should share responsibility,
but one does the work of not 1 or 2, but 3....,
the "one" someday may finally realize....
it's time to turn around & open eyes,
...

Introductory Poem:


In My Housemate's Absence

Intro poem ….

My body's getting old, my mind has ALWAYS been weak,
so I hope, from me, no great "intro poem" you'll seek.

Five months I, Bri, was missing from this site;
now I'm back.
Some sensed my absence while others, that sense, did lack.

I awoke [If indeed I was asleep] to a bird song from a tree.
A bright light shone down from the blue sky …. onto me.
I knew not where I was, nor how I came to be.
This was all new, but somehow I KNEW …. I could hear and see.
