Verse First ~ Poetry Heals


Welcome to Verse First, where simple notions prompt amazing poems.

Today's notion?

Poetry Heals

"Poetry is natural medicine, it is like a homeopathic tincture derived from the stuff of life itself--your experience. Poems distill experience into the essentials. Our personal experiences touch the common ground we share with others."

          ~ Excerpted from Poetic Medicine: The Healing Art of Poem-Making

Your task for this week's Verse First is to write succinctly and boldly about a personal experience. As you do so, rest assured that your readers will share some common ground. Be aware that the writing heals you and the reading heals others.

The only rule: No more than 100 words. Succinct. Bold. GO!

I look forward to reading poems unique to each of you. ~ Kim
