NaPoWriMo - 2017 - 10. April 10 : Poetry and Me

Prompt : Antidote Poem Prompt
Write an Antidote poem, a lifebuoy for yourself that could work for others. A poetic antidote might be a prayer, a spell, a flood of gratitude, or a joke.

Not completely a Haiku. But it carries 5-7-5 form. I hope you guys will enjoy.

 

Poetry and Me

My only escape
From pain, and from misery
From each deal I face

Writing a poem
Is what console my vexed soul
And or reading one

My only brute-force
To act, and to fight wisely
On battles I hold

Poetry is all
That I have got for me; and
I ever will get

:thankyou: to Val for helping me by providing me the prompts. :thankyou: to all for reading, liking, and reviewing. All mistakes are surely mine.

~Emi.

I can only hit the like button once, but I wish I could do do many times for this. You speak for me in your stanzas, read and know my mind.

This is terrific, Emi! It's so important to have something to go to when one's upset, and I can't think of a better way to express feelings than in a poem.

You are right Lisa. Not only in vain, but also in happy and strange times. Poetry is the only allay for so many. :)

Thank you for sharing your opinion on my poem.
