For National Poetry Day 2023, I am picking Sylvia Plath's poem "Mushrooms" from her first volume The Colossus, published in 1960.

Today my head is cotton-stuffed

And I do not know how to word But I have licked this page

So I can say: this belongs to me

This at least is mine.

Our Souls Long For New Conquests 3.17.23 "Stormy Day"

Gentle rain fall soft on my windowsill Drum little finger droplets Counting wet woolled sheep And send me from pain From sorrow and solitude Into sleep and sweet dreams

It’s National Poetry Day in the Uk. Here is my poem about loss, a eulogy. (If it resonates with you please feel free to copy and use with acknowledgment) ‘You will be so Missed’ by Lisa Lopresti

You will be so Missed

Only in loss

do we understand value.

Tears are the words

we cannot speak,

pain & shock of what happened

and the loss of whatever will.

Our mourning is our love,

unable to reach you.

We miss the future

you were supposed to have.

Our grief will change over time-

but never end.

Happy National Poetry Day!

I wanted to share my favorite poem:

“Annabel Lee” by Edgar Allan Poe.

It was many and many a year ago, In a kingdom by the sea, That a maiden there lived whom you may know By the name of Annabel Lee; And this maiden she lived with no other thought Than to love and be loved by me.

I was a child and she was a child, In this kingdom by the sea, But we loved with a love that was more than love— I and my Annabel Lee— With a love that the wingèd seraphs of Heaven Coveted her and me.

And this was the reason that, long ago, In this kingdom by the sea, A wind blew out of a cloud, chilling My beautiful Annabel Lee; So that her highborn kinsmen came And bore her away from me, To shut her up in a sepulchre In this kingdom by the sea.

The angels, not half so happy in Heaven, Went envying her and me— Yes!—that was the reason (as all men know, In this kingdom by the sea) That the wind came out of the cloud by night, Chilling and killing my Annabel Lee.

But our love it was stronger by far than the love Of those who were older than we— Of many far wiser than we— And neither the angels in Heaven above Nor the demons down under the sea Can ever dissever my soul from the soul Of the beautiful Annabel Lee;

For the moon never beams, without bringing me dreams Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And the stars never rise, but I feel the bright eyes Of the beautiful Annabel Lee; And so, all the night-tide, I lie down by the side Of my darling—my darling—my life and my bride, In her sepulchre there by the sea— In her tomb by the sounding sea.

an ode to poetry

Hail the singers of words, To those who give a spin on prose, Raise your voices for these souls, Those who change the game.

Can we get a beat drop to these lexical geniuses? With every word, they can spit anything when they focus in, Oh, what the things they can express could make endless hits, No two of us are the same.

We've all started from somewhere, One might've had a great past, but another elsewhere May have had a rocky journey from the bottom up where, We all find the gift we should claim.

This twist of words is both ancient and modern, Written by people both high-class and downtrodden, Used for everything, never forgotten, The words that described these endless nights and days.

This art is something we've all learned, As people, from around the whole world, Sometimes, as people have observed, These lexemes have changed old ways.

Hail the writers and poets of our days, We, a community, a guiding hand if one goes astray, Self-expression? We've found a way, Just as beautiful as any other style, a style that lets us escape.

-Vedika Zope (SevereInternetParadise)

We only have a short while So quick, let me tell you We’re too far gone to turn this around I can’t believe We have it in us to put this world right It is all too late, too late How can you say But do not give up hope Every day the planet burns a little more And hot air rises While governments pump out empty promises   We are powerless Don’t be so foolish to imagine that Together we have a voice Big enough to change the world The decisions we make each day are Unimportant The food we eat, the things we buy, how we get around How naïve to think The destruction of centuries could be undone   In a few decades If we could just find reverse (now read this poem from bottom to top)

Every day the planet burns a little more - Brian Bilston for National Poetry Day, October 6, 2022
