POETRY IS WHAT THE SOULS OF THE ANCIENTS SPEAK TO THOSE STILL SEEKING WHAT IS MOST BEAUTIFUL IN THE WORLD. FROM: LINDA

Thank you to Editor Lanning Russell for including 5 of my poems in Issue 7 of Event Horizon.

Here are 2 of the poems:




Valor Unimpeded

Keep your personal vision bright.
Overlook bitter words from jealous hearts 

whose envy seeps from them
like blood into cloth.
Stay cheered and maintain a confident essence. 

Let anger at those begrudging you be removed. 
They, tangled within their webs of esurience, 
their torment must be considerable.
Be heartened forever;
for if not for your own intrepidness,
you could be them.






Royal Salvation

A smiling face,
within these silver walls,
the newly crowned Queen, 

steps from her dais,
exits out the flung open egress, 

glides along lily strewn paths, 
and comes to meet her King.

Together they visit gardens filled with reason, 
both antiquated and fresh,
to salvage hope,
a chance for peace,

before the world could go dark.
