Sylvia Plath Trailblazer Messages to us again

by

Horror and skill, being frozen and then unfrozen, her life compiled many layers of desperation and hope. Her from her heart she carved out verse and pursued publishing, while in her shadow a deeper despair could haunt daydreams. Challenges surrounded her and she set flight to rise above debilitation to give us a glimpse of an inner world,reality.

Listen to her read, and others read her while to read these words. Her message strong invites you to climb your mountain and to see, to speak, and to real your experience as long as you can.

Perhaps you will become as MAy Sarton did, an old woman still creating verse. Perhaps your life can bring inspiration to others today and into future generations. These are lessons we can absorb. People truely following their paths. What path is yours to write?

Read and study, compare how these poets add words into a rcih stew of living. Footsteps covered with earth. Might these illustrations challenge you to go deeper into your own expression? Listen to these words, for poetry creates a song that mingles with wind and crackling branches.

Pause and absorb the magic. Write and breathe into your word the vitality of life, living, and wonder.
