Here’s a poem I’ve written for ‘Go Dog Go Cafe’s’, Tuesday Writing Prompt Challenge. Today’s prompt: Write a story or poem that ends with the phrase “he shredded her dreams in dignified air of victory”
Friday evening I attended my first ever Melody and Poetry event at the Analogue Academy & Gallery. The new and interesting night developed into thoroughly enjoyable show, for both the musicians and poets. The poem I recited was “Lost On The River” , here’s the link >> https://ivors20.wordpress.com/2019/06/30/lost-on-the-river/
Melody and Poetry
The Gallery’s been darkened
And the room’s illuminated by faerie lights
The Melody and Poetry event begins
On stage, there’s a piano player and guitarist
Improvising their music, to each poet’s readings
And the enthusiastic crowd sings along
To the sheets of printed words
And the poet’s recital is resonating vividly
As he shredded her dreams
In a dignified air of victory
