Afro Poetry Times October 2023 issue is pure honey linking crafters of poetry who are making their mark at the Rugby World Cup. More unpublished poetry and lots more

In the realm where words dance and emotions bloom,
Lies the enchanting world of poetry, a timeless tomb.
An art form that transcends the mundane,
It weaves tales of love, loss, and pain.

With each line, a melody is born,
Whispering secrets, untangling thorns.
It paints vivid pictures with strokes of ink,
Imbuing life into thoughts we think.

A symphony of syllables, a dance of rhyme,
Poetry captures moments frozen in time.
It speaks of dreams and hopes untold,
A sanctuary for hearts to unfold.

Through verses, we find solace and peace,
A sanctuary where our souls find release.
So let us immerse in this poetic sea,
And let the power of words set us free.
