Collaborative Poetry Writing (Voices of Neopoet)

Voices Of Neopoets Eternal Renga 13 Collaborative Workshop

Poets gathering,
voices deciphered in words,
friendship blooms anew
the hearts share a common bosnd
beween mentors and students.

Poets sing a song
mostly to themselves they sing
neopoet sings
chorus of poets gather
beautiful verses they write.

Feet touched the earth
my mind touches the whole world
thinking a new way
take time for your words to form
let us touch the new world now.

Let imagery dance
in the rhythm of the art
where feelings blossom
as a lotus in sweet ground
all varied in their colour.

Thoughts bottled within
take form in novel verses
released from mind space
akin to a new born child
freed from the umbilical.

Winds of thought are strong
tornadoes are the poets
a breeze or a squall
winds of thought will blow them far
returning where they'd begun.

Voices of poets
come blend your poetic voice
Japanese poetry
write haiku, senyru, tanka
create whimsical renga.

Rhythm of heart beats
echoes in vivid verses
dark or romantic
stirring liquid emotions
within cockles of the heart.

Together we speak
the language of the bards here
to share our stories
we are actors in our stage,
displaying dedication.

Stimulating minds
poets titillate readers
inviting critique
germination of a thought
leads to metamorphosis.

Bright epiphany
clearing fogged reality
metamorphosis
like warm thoughts in a cocoon
a butterfly is scripted.

The love of writing
it brought me here to your side
I feel no warmth
here my key pen you should guide
yet why do I feel so alone.

The butterfly sips
nectar in blooming verses
pollinating thoughts
from minds of Neopoets
germinate seeds of Renga.
