Photo Credit: Alireza Dolati I tried to dance today My body started to sway I tried to move with grace But I thought my inner voice Whisper, “That’s not the way!” I tried to dance And let my heart be open To gracious love Sweet rhythm That’s here to stay I found my groove, After I begin to move ‘Be happy, dance and sing, I tried to dance today ‘poetic mystical sway’ As I sing, sing, sing, That’s the magnificent way!” Empress Journee
This bio will be short. I am a graduate of Medgar Evers College. Mother of three and grandmother. I love to read and write poetry.
To those who have been a great support in reading my website and those who just came across this poetry this will be the ending of my poetic journey for now. I hope there will be a new chapter in my life that will be a success and inspired people to be far better in their thoughts, words and deeds. I am working on myself and it’s been hard.... yet I am getting there. When I began my poetry, I felt so deeply inspired. Now when I write I just write (feeling burned out of all that has occurred and is occurring) and I am feeling as if my poetry isn’t moving in the manner that I feel it should because I have not place myself in a position to be active reading my poetry at live venues for my own personal reason. I wanted to thank those who took the time to read my poetry especially my love ones. Thank you for being on the journey with me. Peace and blessings.
