A Few Kind Words

I run a regular haiku contest and one super steemian @liverussian always has something nice to say about the winners and runners-up. Can I share her words about my most recent winner, @mayliberty?

In her words:

I've never come across @mayliberty before, and I was glad to go through her profile and find out that we have a lot in common: poetry, motherhood, being a woman!!!

I especially enjoyed her series of posts called •••Exchange Time For Poetry••• I've never made a better deal! Her esthetically pleasant style full of harmony of words and images is outstanding! If you don't have much free time but you love poetry, I'd recommend you to look into her pieces, they're such delight, simple with deep hidden thoughts if you like digging into things!

Let me show you my favourites:

Beautiful flowers to
Smell and admire...

But they cannot take
Away the pain of a
Broken heart 💔

Only time can...

How often we try to hide the wounds we cause our dear ones behind the radiant beauty of flowers...

She writes about all kinds of topics, seems like letting poetry enter her life once, she wouldn't let it go! Everything that happens in life inspires her to write a few lines. And that's amazing! Poetry makes us see things we've never noticed before, it opens the doors, we didn't even know existed:

Goodbye to the past
A new future is waiting
To take me away

Most of the pieces in the series are written in the form of haiku, @mayliberty surely feels the haiku! I'm not surprised by her victory in the most recent vdux' haiku contest with the prompt "candy". I loved this simple but meaningful entry. Keep it up and see you in the sea of haikus @mayliberty!
