Amera’s river

\nEvery word that she writes is the start of a river,
\nTumbling and fumbling its way to the sea.
\nAll of the sounds that they send from the giver,
\nSpreading her thoughts and emotions to me.<\/p>\n
The mountains inside her, the source of the writing,
\nBuilding and growing and crashing on down.
\nFinding a path through deep gullies exciting,
\nFeeding the greens and refreshing the brown.<\/p>\n
Joining and merging and spreading and growing
\nPoetry forms where the cold rivers meet,
\nEmotions and love and thoughts they are showing,
\nThe sugars and spices that make living sweet.<\/p>\n
Now that her poems have flourished in stature,
\nThe life that surrounds them can blossom and thrive.
\nFilling the heads of her readers with rapture,
\nMaking me feel that I’m glad I’m alive.<\/p>\n
The poems from this poet the sighs of her readers
\nMerging together the sea of all thought
\nHer richness of words can now nourish the feeders
\nFoundations of life as our children are taught<\/p>\n
Author notes
\nFor the best poet on AP, for now!<\/p>\n
Modified from what I believe to be my best poem on site to suit her accent and
\nto pay tribute to her poetry.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
