Poetry Written By Melissa Brown

Poetry isn’t so much about the words; it’s about the meaning behind the words. Poetry is an art. It is meant to be heard, understood, and to be felt. When those word strike the deepest parts of your soul, that’s when you know you truly grasp the meaning.

Anyone can write poetry, it’s just a matter of starting. I find inspiration in everyday life and sometimes in how I feel myself. The poetry you will find here is anything from light to dark, from happy to sad. Some are just from pure imagination and others from the depths of emotions. Let the words imprint themselves upon your mind, body, and soul. Enjoy.

Through the changing times

Through the journey of our lives

Through the trials and the pain

Through the love we have gained

We face the good and the bad

But we must always remain thankful for what we have

We learn to grow as we come to know

That you reap what you sow

As another year has gone by

A new one has arrived

A time for change

A time to start again

Turn over a new leaf

Set your soul free

Start with a clean slate

You are the one who decides your fate
