Turkeys cross a road. A park is their abode. Turkeys stick together appears to be their code.

Their lil ones are their hope. Feathers are their coat. Gobble: what one spoke. One tilts its head (and throat).

Gathered are stones (wiser than some phones). A river is their home (and also their throne).

Some stones seem to float and/or move in midair; images of them had to be shared. They’re like spaceships (flying many a corsair?) As a result they’re receiving a stare.

A goose (who’s named Peruse) was introduced, moves like canoes (on a pond where it roosts).

Maybe this goose chooses to schmooze. This goose welcomes views (and is not a recluse, and does the opposite of vamoose). Morale is what Peruse: improves and boosts. Peruse has confidence, wings wavy cruise, and has no need for an excuse. And when there’s two goose: that’s deuce.

One of the most underrated poetry groups that has had its works published in a newspaper and recorded for a library’s poem of the month video series is the Peaceful Poets.

This group is based in Milpitas; hopefully people noticed.

The Milpitas Post and the Milpitas Library:

helped the group, making times more merry.

From May 2012 to February 2018:

I was proofreading for and moderating

the Peaceful Poets (with whom I shared my thoughts, poems, songs).

This group’s range of works and videos is at http://peacefulpoetsblog.wordpress.com .

One video (at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pqf1z35g9U ) features four of its members.

It’s one highlight of many that I still remember.

If you’d also like to watch and listen to me in this recording,

I (Z.F. Thrimej) am the second one on it performing

from the times 1:13 to 1:31.

Over half of this poem is already done.

Noteworthy is this group going beyond expectations;

it did more than stimulate and catalyze imaginations.

Love, loss, experiences, and ideas: this group writes about and meditates on.

Its members also vent about and confront what’s wrong.

Sometimes we felt messed with, dealt with the excessive.

We coped by being reflective, writing many a message

not only about what annoys, but also our joys and our stories.

This group inspired others to create and use your voice.

I hope these poets, the library, and the Post continue to encourage;

poetry, writing, and creativity are ways to heal, learn, and nourish.
