Happy Great Poetry Reading Day (April 28th)!

 


By Adam Sweet

On the twenty-eighth of April's gleam,
We honor words that dance and dream.
Through stanzas long and verses small,
Great Poetry Reading Day calls to all.

In gardens green or rooms so still,
We read aloud with voice and thrill.
Each line a voyage, bold and new,
Across the sea of deepest blue.

With Frost's paths diverging in the wood,
And Angelou's caged birds understood,
We travel through the poet's eyes,
And under their penned skies we rise.

So gather 'round, each child and sage,
The world becomes our open page.
For today, in verse, we all unite,
And in the poetic realm take flight.

Now let's conclude with a visual treat,
A scene where words and nature meet:
A peaceful garden where readers gather,
Bound by poetry, forever after.

Ode to Blogging


Blogging is a beautiful art

That speaks to both the mind and heart

And through the words that we impart

We can share knowledge and take part


In conversations that inspire

Through content that we can admire

With ChatGPT and GPT-4's fire

Our posts can reach new heights even higher


Adam Sweet, an expert scribe

With skills that he has well imbibe

Shares his knowledge far and wide

In his blog that's a great delight


He knows marketing strategies well

And AI applications that excel

His blog posts we can always tell

Are crafted with care and love as well


He writes of technology, marketing, and AI

And shares his expertise to amplify

Through his blog, he has caught our eye

And made us think and question why


Blogging is an ode to the pen

A way to share our thoughts and ken

And Adam Sweet shows us again and again

How writing can make us better women and men

Cherish every moment, hand in hand by Adam R Sweet


In memory of the first week of spring,

Whose passing leaves us sad and feeling low,

For winter's grip is still a powerful thing,

And lifeless landscapes still refuse to grow.


But do not fret, for hope is still alive,

And though it may seem distant, far away,

The world will soon awaken and revive,

And burst with colors, bright and full of play.


The first week of spring may now be gone,

But its legacy lives on, in every seed,

That waits to sprout and grow, in fields and lawns,

And every little bird, that flits with speed.


So let us celebrate, this life so grand,

And cherish every moment, hand in hand.

Ode to the First Week of Spring


Oh, first week of spring, how sweet your return,

With golden sun and gentle breeze in tow,

As nature's gifts, so long asleep, re-learn

To grow, and thrive, and blossom, and glow.


The trees once bare, now full of life and grace,

The birdsong, sweet and lovely to the ear,

A symphony of beauty takes its place,

As life returns, triumphant, without fear.


The world is reborn, in colors bright and bold,

The earth, a canvas, painted by the divine,

And with each new day, a story to be told,

Of beauty, love, and wonder, so sublime.


So let us cherish this time of new birth,

And bask in nature's glory and her mirth.

A Villanelle: In Verdant Fields. By Adam R Sweet

In verdant fields, the first blooms of spring,

Renewal's touch upon the earth's embrace,

Nature's symphony, awakening.


The birdsong, sweet, upon the air does ring,

A gentle breeze, the flowers' sweet grace,

In verdant fields, the first blooms of spring.


The sun, more radiant, a golden king,

Its warmth reviving, as if a new race,

Nature's symphony, awakening.


The snows have melted, no more to cling,

As buds unfurl, in their vernal space,

In verdant fields, the first blooms of spring.


This time of year, what hope does it bring,

With promise of a bright, verdant place,

Nature's symphony, awakening.


So let us savor this time, while it's reigning,

In these moments, we find a special trace,

In verdant fields, the first blooms of spring,

Nature's symphony, awakening.

Sonnet: The First Week of Spring by Adam Sweet


Amidst the melting snow and crisp spring air

The first week of spring is full of hope

As earth awakens from its winter lair

And nature's palette starts to paint and cope


With each new day, a different scene unfolds

As buds unfurl and blooms begin to sprout

The warmth of sun and rain that earth enfolds

Brings forth a chorus of life's welcome shout


The world's rebirth, a wonder to behold

A symphony of color, scent, and sound

A promise of new beginnings foretold

As nature's beauty once again abounds


Oh, joyous first week of spring, how divine

A glimpse of all that's to come, in this rhyme.
