Purge Poetry

By Veronica M. Edmondson

Purge Poetry -Vol 1

Approximate Length: 70 Pages

 

One of the best ways I have learned to get rid of negative feelings and emotions was to arm myself with my pen and purge with words. I asked friends and family to provide me with poetry prompts and through free verse, I used the prompts to write from my heart; releasing old feelings and emotions that rented space in my head.

These poems are based on things I have thought, heard, felt, or have experienced through the eyes of others.

When we hold onto negative experiences whether ours or someone else's it creates negative energy that we permit to live in our minds and keep us unfocused, but when releasing these feelings through the tip of our pens we gain peace of mind, clarity, and focus to live in the NOW.

If you are willing to allow your feelings to live in the ink of your pen and transfer into words, you can set your mind free. Thank you so much for taking the time to read my anthology of poems. Thank you to my friends and family for the words that helped me purge.

By High School, Veronica was still Journaling and writing poetry. Her love for poetry deepened when her mother, named also Veronica came running into her room one day to tell her about a woman who was on television reciting poetry just like her; Veronica was amazed to watch a woman of color recite words she did not understand but knew at that moment she was a poet too. That woman who made her smile as she watched her on television was the late Maya Angelou.
