REVIEW:

“PORCH POEMS” WRITTEN BY Shirley Mandel Satterfield IS A LOVELY COLLECTION OF POETRY ABOUT NATURE AND GOD INTERTWINING TO CREATE SITTING ON A PORCH DURING MORNING.

SATTERFIELD HAS WRITTEN SEVERAL “WORKS OF ART” PORTRAYING GOD AS THE ARTIST AS MOTHER NATURE PROVIDES ABSTRACT COLORS. ONE OF THE FIRST THINGS WE REALLY ENJOYED READING “PORCH POEMS” WAS MANDEL’S ABILITY TO USE HER OWN PAINTBRUSH WITH CHOSEN WORDS IN EACH POEM.

SATTERFIELD WRITES A COLLECTION OF BEAUTIFUL POEMS TAKING US HOME BOUND. WE CAN’T HELP BUT APPRECIATE HER INSPIRING DETAIL OF EACH THING YOU MIGHT SEE WHILE SITTING ON A PORCH BREATHING IN THE MORNING AIR OR WATCHING THE SUNRISE. MANDEL CARRIES YOU ON A JOURNEY THROUGH GOD’S CREATIONS WITH A POEM FOR EACH SEASON.

SMELL THE AIR, FEEL THE WEATHER, APPRECIATE THE SUNSHINE. WE STRONGLY SUGGEST READING ONE OF THESE POEMS EVERY MORNING TOUCHING YOUR DAY WITH A SENSE OF HEAVEN.

SAY YOUR MORNING PRAYERS OR MEDITATE BEFORE READING ANY OF THESE “CREATIVES” IN THIS WELL ILLUSTRATED COLLECTION OF, “PORCH POEMS”.

WITH A POEM SHARING A WONDERFUL VISUAL, DIFFERENT SCENES PAINTED BY SATTERFIELD ARE WORDS WHICH FLOW TO THE HEART, SATTERFIELD WILL TAKE YOU ON A SIMPLE JOURNEY WHILE READING THEM. THERE ARE SO MANY BEAUTIFUL, ORGANIC POEMS REFLECTING THE SIMPLE THINGS IN LIFE WE ALL TAKE FOR GRANTED, BUT SATTERFIELD DOES NOT. SATTERFIELD REFERS TO.THE MORNING CLOUDS BEING SHAPED LIKE “ANIMALS” IN HER POEM TITLED, “SOMETIMES A TURTLE.” ONE OF OUR FAVORITE POEMS FROM THIS BOOK IS CALLED, “MORNING BIRD”, WHICH INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING VERSE:

“I KNOW THAT MORNINGS ARE QUIET FOR A REASON,

IT’S THE STILLNESS OF A 24 HOUR SEASON.”

WHEN OUR MINDS HAVE BEEN SETTLED BY REPOSE,

AND OUR FEELINGS ARE COMPOSED.

THIS VERSE WOWED US, TAKING OUR MINDS INTO SIMPLE, UNINTERRUPTED THOUGHTS WE ALL HAVE WHILE WAKING UP FIRST THING IN THE MORNING. WE ALSO LOVED SATTERFIELD’S POEM CALLED, “MOTHER MORNING”. THIS POEM SHARES WITH US A LINE THAT STICKS; “AS MOTHER MORNING DONS HER ROBE”. YOU LITERALLY VISUALIZE WHAT IT MIGHT FEEL LIKE IF MORNING ACTUALLY WORE A ROBE AS MOST OF US DO UPON WAKING UP. ANOTHER POEM, “THE BOSS”, ALSO STANDS OUT, SUMMING UP THE QUIET POWER A “WOMAN OF HER OWN HOUSE” HAS. MANDEL BRILLIANTLY WRITES YET ANOTHER POEM

TITLED, “MUSING IN ISOLATION”. THE UNIQUE WAY HER WORDS COME TOGETHER CREATING A VISION IN OUR IMAGINATION IS SHEER BRILLIANCE.

ANOTHER POEM SATTERFIELD INCLUDES, :”LOOK IT’S SNOWING” MENTIONS EACH SNOWFLAKE BEING UNIQUELY SHAPED WHEN FALLING FROM THE SKY. WE FEEL THE COLD TASTE OF A SNOWFLAKE WHILE READING THIS, IF A SNOWFLAKE HIT OUR TONGUE. IN THIS POEM, SATTERFIELD TALKS OF A WINTER’S MORNING PLANS TO GO OUT, CHANGING QUICKLY INTO PLANS OF STAYING HOME BECAUSE OF A COLD WEATHER STORM.

WE ARE NOW GOING TO HAVE A DAILY WISDOM WORD WHICH I LOVE, WRITING! WRITING, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS CREATIVE BY NATURE IS A MYSTERY ONLY YOU CAN BEGIN AND FINISH. WRITING IS SOMETHING INNATE OR WITHIN US. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE WRITE IN OUR BRAINS?

OUR BRAINS BECOME EXTREMELY ACTIVE WHEN WE WRITE, ESPECIALLY CREATIVELY. OFTENTIMES WE USE MORE NEURONS AND ACTIVATE AREAS IN BOTH SIDES OF THE BRAIN WHICH IS DIFFICULT TO HAVE HAPPEN. THERE ARE NOT MANY THINGS WE CAN DO IN LIFE THAT INTERFACES BOTH PARTS OF OUR BRAIN. THIS IS PART OF THE REASON I FOUNDED DAILY WISDOM WORDS.

I SEE LITERATURE STUDIES THAT WERE ONCE PART OF MANDATED COURSES IN YEARS KINDERGARTEN- TWELFTH GRADE A THING OF THE PAST. OF COURSE, WE FOCUS PARTIALLY ON ENGLISH AND VOCABULARY, BUT THE TEACHING OF THE HISTORY OF LITERATURE IS NOT REQUIRED IN MANY BASIC CURRICULUMS AS IT ONCE WAS. LET US TAKE A LOOK AT THE BASIC DEFINITION OF WRITING FROM OUR WEBSTER DICTIONARY.

WEBSTER DEFINITION OF WRITING-1. THE ACTIVITY OR SKILL OF MARKING COHERENT WORDS ON PAPER AND COMPOSING TEST. 2. A SEQUENCE OF LETTERS, WORDS, OR SYMBOLS MARKED ON PAPER OR SOME OTHER SURFACE. 3. HANDWRITING. 4. BOOKS, STORIES, ARTICLES, OR OTHER WRITTEN WORKS.

DAILY WISDOM WORD DEFINITION OF WRITING-1. A GROUPING OF VARIOUS WORDS TURNED INTO MEANING OF EITHER FACT, FICTION BUT ALWAYS UTILIZING CREATIVITY WHEN PLACING THESE WORDS IN THEIR PROPER PLACEMENT TO CONVEY MEANING YOU WISH TO GET ACROSS.

WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE BEGIN WRITING AND IDEAS THAT WERE FLOWING LIKE WATER, JUST STOP. MOST OF US HAVE HEARD THE TERM, ‘WRITER’S BLOCK’. DAILY WISDOM WORDS, LLC. IS BASED ON THE THEORY THAT THERE IS A CURE FOR EVERYTHING CREATIVE WHETHER YOU ARE AN AUTHOR OR POET OR SONGWRITER. WE HOST FOR MEMBERS DAILY “ACTIVE WRITER’S PROMPTS” TO KEEP THE CREATIVE JUICES FLOWING OR RESTART THEM IF NECESSARY. IN HISTORY, SOME WRITERS HAVE TRIED WRITING DOWN EVERY DETAIL OF THE DREAMS THE HAD NIGHTLY HOPING THIS WOULD BREAK DOWN THE WRITER’S BLOCK THEY WERE EXPERIENCING. THIS ACTIVITY HAS PROVED LESS THAN SUCCESSFUL WHEN DEALING WITH WRITER’S BLOCK.

DAILYWISDOMWORDS.COM BELIEVES WRITER’S BLOCK TAKES HOLD OF OUR MIND AND CREATIVITY WHEN WE FEEL STUCK. OFTEN TIMES THE ISSUES WE ARE HAVING WITH OUR THOUGHTS DO NOT DIRECTLY HOLD RELEVANCE IN WHAT WE ARE WRITING. DAILY WISDOM WORDS DOES OFFER ONE ON ONE COUNSELING TO DEAL WITH WRITERS BLOCK. SO OFTEN, OUR HEALTHY MINDS BECOME ABSORBED IN ISSUES UNRELATED TO THE SUBJECT MATTER WE ARE WRITING ABOUT. STILL, WE BELIEVE THERE IS A DIRECT CORRELATION BETWEEN THE WRITER’S BLOCK AND CREATIVE BLOCK BEING BROUGHT ON BY THE UNRELATED ISSUE.

JOIN DAILY WISDOM WORDS, LLC TODAY. WE HAVE HAD GREAT LUCK IN BREAKTHROUGHS WITH WRITER’S BLOCK MOST LIKELY BECAUSE WE ARE WRITER’S OURSELVES. AT THE MOMENT, IT IS $10 TO JOIN FOR A LIFETIME. YOU CREATE THE VALUE BEHIND THE MEMBERSHIP BY USING IT. WE GIVE YOU EVERY TOOL POSSIBLE TO MAKE YOU SUCCESSFUL. IF YOU’RE A WRITER OF ANY KIND, YOU OWE IT TO YOURSELF TO GIVE IT ALL YOU HAVE.
