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 thunder







sharing one stanza of “my thunder”, a brief lyric poem:





thunder
scares me
wraps my brittle bones
black kettledrum
crashes
splinters my smoking door
