Today, SHINE welcomes Connecticut-based writer and owner of Cerulean Wings, LLC publishing company, Joseph Adomavicia. "Joe the Poet" (as he is known in his hometown) brings us three poems of a soothing and healing nature. Please enjoy! Thank you, Joe, for sharing your love of words with SHINE international poetry community. Waterfalls (haiku)Tall like cathedrals Mellow water on boulders Soothes me into sleep HeroicsHardened hands hold heavy hearts. Haggard hands harbor hurtful horrors. Hurt has hurdled hope. Hell, howls haphazardly. Hell's hunger hastens-- Harvest healthy hopefulness. Heal hidden happiness. Having home hosts harmony. Heed honorable heroics. Read to Me5/8/22 6:21 p.m. Embrace me. Read to me all the pages of your story from then or now. I will be the ears to listen. And when the words become difficult to tell, still, I will be the ears to listen. You will be heard. Embrace me. Read to me all the pages of your story from then or now. I will be the arms of support. And when the weight becomes difficult to hold, still, I will be the arms of support. You will have security. Embrace me. Read to me all the pages of your story from then or now. I will be the hands of reassurance. And when sorrow and turmoil becomes difficult to handle, still, I will be the hands of reassurance. You will have my smile. Embrace me. Read to me all the pages of your story from then or now. I will be there at any hour. And when days bring struggle and become difficult to face, still, I will be there at any hour. You will have my love.  Joseph R.
