Exceptional Short essay on the meaning of writing View on Classic FS With Wonder of Woven Words by dejohnsrld (Debbie)

Our woven words form a powerful connection, a sharing of thoughts, images and emotions. Through the simple strokes of quill and ink, the head and hand of the writer are, at least briefly, combined with the heart and soul of the reader. Through this minute merging, both are left slightly changed.   If each day we share a positive message with three to four others, and they in turn share this message with a few more, a cycle of positive thinking can be created, eventually changing how the world views an issue such as the increased acceptance of persons with disabilities.   With the wonder of woven words, we have the possibility of sharing thoughts, images, emotions, and to work toward societal change. By exchanging our writings, we give to others small pieces of ourselves and by gaining a small piece of theirs, we develop many loving and nurturing relationships.      ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥       A Celebration of Poetry   Poetry reflects beauty a splendid palette painted on canvas with words   Poetry is an orchestra with melody emanating from the heart and soul   Poetry is a vibrant flower starting from a small thought which when cultivated, blossoms   Poetry is creativity inspired by the most unusual circumstances in life   Poetry is gentle, but strong holding great meaning in its powerful lines   Poetry is variable beautiful sometimes shocking at others   Poetry is emotional release whether sad or glad it is therapeutic and healing   Poetry is communication support and friendship among fellow writers   Poetry is love and connection as we exchange with others thoughts shared nowhere else   Poetry keeps us centered as we soul-search seeking authenticity   Poetry is a way of thinking a way of being a way of living ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Recognized Author Notes Each year, my writing group creates an anthology for a 'Recovery in the Arts' presentation.
