we are all performers in a way....poets don't have the biggest audience, but those who attend are usually affected in some way by what we write.

I love your line "eyes travel from verb to phrase"
that is pretty much how I write.
and I do believe poems breathe...we give them life, they are our children...
they are conceived then breathe on their own.

Golly Susan my ideal poetess you sure know how to make a gal smile all over with those sweet words of yours, yes Light writes in a way nobody else does I think and I'll bet you would enjoy her too if you haven't already read her poetry because she [like you] is very special, thank you very much -- love! :)

Honestly dear Sammi, when You said that You will write a poem with the title (Your Poems Breathe) it never crossed my mind that You actually would write something for/about mine, so I'm happily amazed right now, You understand, right?

the presentation I so love, and I'm pleased it's in quatrain form, I seem to write only with one style, so it makes me feel more special that it's not in the only style I write with, beside, it flows so smoothly, so gently, kindly and warm, Your lovely and thoughtful heart, Your knack and insight are there in each of Your word choices, in Your "butterfly" photo too, I just wish I did have her big eyes :)

for me, to be dedicated just the title overwhelming my poetic spirit, now how it's if a whole poem? now, how can I reward You dear Sammi?

Thank You, for glowing my day with the sparks of Your beautiful kindness.

Light when I feel someone's heart and beautiful self like I do yours nothing is too good for you and I wish I could have written this one for you in gold platinum diamonds rubies and emeralds because my plain old words are not near enough to equal the wonderful elegance of your poems -- yes it was my idea to write this one for you but the presentation and smooth quatrains were helped by my teacher Richard too so he gets part of the credit.
It makes me so happy to do this is poem for YOU Light you are so sweet and caring to us all and we all love you -- with my love! :)

Richard is such an amazing teacher to have. Each verse of the poem is crafted so finely and is an embodiment of the love and appreciation felt for a poet.
