Curation for Creatives

Officially, I am now the poetry curator vs. the creative writing curator (which is just making official what has always been true- sorry fiction writers, poetry has my heart). If anyone has any recommendations, I think the title should reflect the new focus on poetry... feel free to comment and let me know what you think!

Winter blossoms outside my window.

I didn't want to spoil @eaglespirit's haiku "Winter Blossoms" by including a few lines as a teaser, so I included her caption instead, but look at that photo! If that doesn't inspire a gorgeous poem, I don't know what does.

I'll burn with the brightest colors until only ashes are left.

This poem reminds me of my own broken pieces. Plus I love the art. Go check out Crack the Paint by @purplevision for yourself.

The hymn of the ocean is my lullaby
A symphony of strumming ripples
each night singing me to sleep
A chorus familiar to my ear
the song I learned by heart

I really, really want to be on an island right now. Love the masterful lines from @reewritesthings Island Girl.

I like to look at maps so
i know where not to go -
those places have
already been found

If you have never read any of @torico's poetry, you are missing out. Her style is at turns cutting and surreal. You'll love Uncharted.

Except
you and you
can take a selfie
One hundred
times until it
doesn't look like you

@doghaus came onto the poetry scene and writes some great poems that explore society and internal emotions- he always has something new and creative and interesting to say. Check out "Punishment"for yourself.
