Periphery

You are.

on the periphery.

Just out of focus.

Miles beyond my scope.

There. I feel you.

There. Your voice whispers in that space

where memory

multiplies

itself

with

you.

I originally wrote this poem in 2015. As I’ve said in my previous posts, I am currently going through my old journals and notebooks in order to organize a collection of poetry. I simply love words and creating images on the page.

Please let me know what you think about my poetry. (But, please, always be kind). Thanks.

I am a published poet and short story writer. I have been published in SNHU's the penmen review. https://penmenreview.com/author/jenny-andrews is the link where you can find my poetry and a short story. Currently, I am writing a collection of short stories, and a collection of poetry. I am trying my hand at writing a novel. Well, not a novel, actually. Make that two novels. My passion is writing. My inspiration is Franz Krafka because he managed to see the absurdity of life. Life is all about perspective and who is telling the story. We all see this life through the lens of our experiences. Literature should inspire us to think, to analyze, and to get lost in unfamiliar worlds in which we learn something new about this human existence. It is my hope that my writing challenges the reader to think, and to see a different perspective, as well as be entertained. My faith in Jesus strengthens me and gives me the courage to survive the twists and turns of this life. My faith influences a lot of my writing in that goodness always triumphs over evil, in that love conquers all. I hope you enjoy reading my blog.
