Poets are amazing people. They have a way of making the everyday ordinary experiences into beautiful and vivid. So real, I can't help but connect with them and experience what they feel whether it be pain, depression, hurt, joy, excitement or love. All these emotions are so easily portrayed through spoken word.
Which brings me to my latest obsession.
You guessed it.
Spoken Word Poetry.
My new favorite is Sarah Kay. She speaks beautiful, she says the hard things, she speaks truth and never looks back. Her video with Phil Kaye, When Love Arrives, really touched my soul and my heart.
They address love. I wish I could summarize their words, but I cannot. So please watch it.
"Love arrives exactly when love is suppose to. And it leaves exactly when love must."
I don't think my love of Spoken Word will dwindle soon. I am thankful to live in a world with poetry and people brave and creative enough to share it.
Have a lovely day.
