CrosseyedstrangerShow poetry

Born to German parents in sunny Greece, my early years were spent scraping my knees on neighborhood streets, discovering ideal hiding spots in run down buildings (a pro at hide and seek), jumping off 5-8m rocks into the Mediterranean Sea with my dad, hunting octopus with my brother and bubble baths with my sisters. At 11 years old I was off to boarding school in a little town 2 hours south of Prague, Czech Land here I come. Ice-skating on big frozen lakes, skiing, biking through lush green forests, midnight escapes from the dorm, and of course… DUMPLINGS. My favorite family possession is our old camper van (the BIG BLUE), in which my mom drove us through most of Europe and infected with me with a long term addiction to traveling. My favorite spots yet are Long Beach on Vancouver Island, Hana in Maui, and Pilion in Greece. I love untouched nature, new places, unique people, and the adrenalin rush of out door sports. I have a passion for the arts, I used to want to be a dancer, I can Hula, I take singing lessons (it makes me very happy), I love chesty laughs, I turn to ice after big fights, I'm terrible at apologizing in person, I can cry and laugh at the same time (a disturbing sight indeed), and I want to be involved in documentary films!! Currently I live in Bristol doing an MSc in Science Communications.

    Chubby cheeks,

    Hello and Welcome to Allpoetry!

    Allpoetry is an interactive site that will help you grow as a poet. Being able to read others works, and having your work read as well. You can join contests, writing classes or visit our sister sites like www.oldpoetry.com

    As a new member we also invite you to check out our Greeters Contest. Open to all September newcomers. www.allpetry.com/Contest/791683 It will be open until September30th midnight USA time. Please read the rules for this contest. If it doesn't meet the criteria, it can't be considered. If you collaborate with another artist, they must be a new September member also.

    INTERNET SAFETY: www.allpoetry.com/Column/695302 Parents please take the time to review safety rules with your children. It's important for people of all ages to read.

    PLAGIARISM: This is something that Allpoetry takes very seriously. I'm including the link to this column also. www.allpoetry.com/Column/693049

    As any interactive site we all have to live by some rules. http:www.allpoetry/special/policies will explain these rules in more detail.

    We are an interactive site. We ask that for every poem you post; you read and comment on 4 other poems. This helps to create bonds that can last forever.

    From the moment you register, you will be able to post your poems. So please don't worry about the "yellow badge" next to your name. This is a four- day free trial preferred membership. This will enable you to personalize your poems with your own images and backgrounds. If you would like to keep this preferred membership or go one step further and buy an Uber membership you can easily sign up. See the "help" tab at the top right of your screen.
