Katherine E. Hageman is a licensed secondary teacher, with an interest in world cultures. She has been writing poetry since she was 12. Poems that have been published by the National Library of Poetry include: Dare, I Would Die For, Knowledge, and Poets of Yester-Year. Katherine is now working on a religious collection. She hopes that one day problems will be solved with the power of words and not violence. Her advice is "hold tight to dreams, thoughts, and ideas, for they will allow you to soar". Poetry is the result of sharing hers. |
A View From The EastAn eerie ice creepsslowly over majestic hills sneaking down on an unsuspecting valley the winds sweep over barren soils dust dances in circles clearing the surface in preparation the sun is strangled from existence clouds turn the sky black a primeval scream goes up as cotton falls like feathers to blanket God's creation | Teach Me HowTake my handlet me lead you to my heart beyond the protective walls (built of fear, anxiety, loss, betrayal) to warmth unknown enveloping every sense and curve holding you close never letting go tear down my defenses help me feel experience all love has to offer teach me how | Stolen MomentsMen were takenlives put on hold years unaccounted for events changing the world births and deaths walls crumbling wars beginning and ending tears shed never forgotten yellow ribbons and prayers excitement building disappointment destroying prayers and hope one day returning joy over flowing words not needed. |
