POETRY FOR ALL

POETRY FOR ALL

Whether you are short or tall

Slim or chique

Whether your tongue is in your cheek

Poetry is an everyday event

And oh how it is heaven sent!

Poetry is a mover, groover and a cooler

Poetry is pleasing to the troubled brow

Even more so when there is a crow

Listening, high and low

Poetry has its peaks and troughs

And oh how we never get enough!

Poetry is inventive, creative and incentive

Panoramic, photogenic and at times so graphic

It’s a way of the world, not curled

Poetry is beautiful, beautified

Poetry writers, write so right

Their skills can be thrills that spills

From line to line, page to page

The nib of the pen writes over and over again

Depicting a picturesque, pictographic pictorial

For all that it enthralls

So you see

Poetry is for all

http://www.amazon.co.uk/Veil-Dreams-Part-Elven-Gods-ebook/dp/B00GI25Y5K/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1387461403&sr=1-1&keywords=The+Veil+Of+Dreams

Cassandra has really put her first novel in first place with her brilliant, brilliant 'The Veil: Dreams Part One together.
Dreams, we all have them, but do we believe in them? are they a figment of our imagination? Are they real? and why do we see people we know in them? we are talking with them as if they are there with us even though they no longer exist in our world. But do they?
Mystery and suspense abound when Sasha founds out that one person is not dead, that they have powers that enable them to visit dreams and this is where Sasha finds out herself that she is a Sorceress herself, that she is special and not like the rest of those around her. Who and what are those shape shifters and why is it so important that they be eliminated ? There is passion, love and romance in a world that seems beyond ours
I cannot fault Cassandra's first ever short story and I am really looking forward to reading her follow up
Thank  you Cassandra for a brilliant great read and a pleasure to do a review for you

THE CITY OF ROMANCE

THE CITY OF ROMANCE

Where we just glanced

Took one long, long glance

We danced, oh we danced

In the city so gay and carefree

Paris, Paris, Paris

All through the long, long night

The night life shone and shone

Whereupon it seemed we were the only ones

The stars were shining so bright

Your eyes shining, with love

They spoke of forever, eternally

Just you and me

Always being carefree

Letting the world float by

Floating on a sea of paradise

Were we so wise?

Did we not see with our eyes?

Those tears that never conquered our fears

The rain splattered sidewalks

The flooding rivers that rose from

 The endless, ceaseless,

Barrage of jealousy, envy

The barrage of insecurities

The frightening lightning of your enlightening

Infidelity

Will stay with me incessantly

COMFY, COSY SOFA

COMFY, COSY SOFA

Oh how I have missed you!

It’s been a long week and oh what a week!

The outlook looked so bleak and weak

Tired and tiresome

It reached fevers peak

But here I lay and will stay

Snuggled, nuzzled and huddled

In your warmth, warmness

You fill me with your affection

Tenderness, kindness

Your soft downy touch

That I have missed so much

You’ve enthralled, exhilarated and stimulated my senses

Your touch, oh so irresistibly seductive and desirable

Leaves me wanting more and more

But wait!

There is something, someone missing!

You! You! You!

My Adonis

Oh how I miss you!

With all the above!
