Life’s roar a whisper Country road curves with no plan Afternoon of you. ©Ali Grimshaw 2021
License for fun – Poem by Ali Grimshaw
Haiku to change your view
Look again
Love is there, open
for you, arms outstretched to
embrace, let it be.
© Ali Grimshaw 2019
Insuppressible
even encased, your
vibrancy cannot be held
captive, you gleam on

Finding Fault – Poem by Ali Grimshaw
Blame is an easy
coat to wear, it’s large pockets
empty promises
© Ali Grimshaw 2018
“The impulse to create begins – often terribly and fearfully – in a tunnel of silence. Every real poem is the breaking of existing silence, and the first question we might ask any poem is, What kind of voice is breaking silence, and what kind of silence is being broken?” ~ Adrienne Rich
