My latest venture, Tales Flowers Tell
http://www.geocities.com/susancrowe2004

Proud of my Southern heritage and strong women forebears, I am a wife, mother and grandmother. I am addicted to structured poetry in most genres (formal and short, rhyming or non-rhyming) and enjoy experimenting with meter.



Poems written for me by AP Poets:
------------------------------------

By Lyndon of the Winklings
My favorite little bird
Artistically flits in verse.

Bird among flowers heard;
Energetic among acrostics or worse ~
Lazily floating among sonnets;
Literati girl of gardens and bonnets,
Edging bluebells; eglantine coronets.

------------------------------------

By Maa
M ystical sounds caressing the air
I look for the notes and suddenly find
A nnabelle sitting under a tree
Fairies and angels standing behind

B utterflies gather around her heart
A poem she's reading to the flowers around
E nchanted by her nectar-filled words
They dance with delight to this heavenly sound
L ilies sway to the song of her soul
Roses spread perfume in abundance for all
L istening with supreme joy and bliss
At the feet of the majestic waterfall
E nlightening is her masterful art
Rejoicing all beings and filling my heart

------------------------------------

By Pollycheck
M arvelous at poetic forms
A lways writing great poetry

B eautiful sonnet writer
E exceptionally talented
L over of the metaphor
L ast to criticize another
E xcellent wordsmith

In Your Garden by capricornpoet
Spring's come with its soft melody
Lend your ear to its gentle hum
Of brooks trickling dreams
And scents of lilies and peonies

Do you hear the robin sing
It's come to stir you heartstrings
Hummingbirds those glimmer fairies
Savoring each goblet on strings

In your garden southern belle
Of flowers, villanelles and triolets
You'll whisper sonnets to bonnets
Keeping a wishing well, where secrets dwell

Write me a spell dipped on your quill
Stir a sonnet in my midnight air
Tell the robin to hurry, at your will
From your garden this wish he ferries

------------------------------------

Green Of The Irish by capricornpoet
Moors of long ago haunted by sea urchins
A tale of magic spun as seaferers landed
Being enchanted by an Island lush with greens
Ere unicorns and elfins dwelled
Longing for companions from afar
Leaving their legends and tales
Eden of the Irish and land of MaBelle

So she spun her stories and tales
Poets came to rest under her lapels
Listening to her sonnets she spun like a spell
Wondering if in those green eyes
Love was her sorecery so wise

------------------------------------

By Red Red Rose
m eeting you, I have been blessed
a ngelic woman; golden hair tressed

b eauty lies in inner soul; kindness abounds!
e very new dawn, a wren will sing & resound.
l ilies will bow heads in prayer, knowing how you love them so.
l ady from the south, from lady in the north, I’m proud to know.
e ternal candle I lit for you and said a prayer for friendship grow.

By myron (master of the Haiku)
her sharp tongue
a tree full of lemons
in my garden
