About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Prompt 50: Summer Mountains
by Joy Author IconMail Icon
Summer Mountains

Summer mountains,
wild flowers circling their necks
like glittering gems,
conjure up splendor
and my aspirations.
While sunbeams ripple
in clear light strains,
I sense a mountain's soft breath
surrounding me, for I never
lost the wonder
for the mountain winds' songs
chiming against the blue patches of sky
when the peaks, with rhythm,
whisper revelations to
something deep inside me:
“Take nothing with you;
come to me as you are,
uncluttered and complete
in your aloneness.”
