why write?

I have to write what I hear in my head, what I dream in my sleep, what my bones ache to express.

My poems tell stories of strength, love, regret, disobedience, loss, hope, redemption, and whatever whispers.

—Cindy B. Stevens

my upstairs window


I’ve said it before, I don’t write many sweet poems, but I’ll share a few lines from one of them, called “my upstairs window”:


I watch a faerie dance from my upstairs window

they twirl heavenward

then curtsey

at my feet
