Expressions of Love & Passion — A poetic journey through the many faces of love. These are the words that rise through desire, heartbreak, self-discovery, and healing.

 

Welcome to the soul of my words.

This is where love lives.
Where passion flows freely, and poetry becomes a mirror for the heart.

Expressions of Love & Passion is more than a collection—it’s a journey through love in all its forms.
Romantic. Sacred. Self. Divine.
Some poems ache with longing. Others whisper through heartbreak.
Many, like this month’s piece, rise with the quiet fire of healing, surrender, and becoming.

These verses hold space for every chapter:
The ones where you loved deeply.
The ones where you lost yourself.
The ones where you returned home to your truth.

Wherever you are in your story—
may something here meet you in the hush, the heat, or the holy pause before your next beginning.

Let it be for you.
Let the words rise like breath.

This Month’s Featured Poem

 

I Had a Wonderful Dream

Canyon of Echoes

Just For Today

A dreamy digital poem image titled “I Had a Wonderful Dream” by Rita Lynn Berry, set against a starlit blue-green night sky background with soft white text.
I Had a Wonderful Dream” is a gentle, star-kissed whisper from the heart—a poem about hope, longing, and the sacred power of imagining more.
A contemplative woman sits in a vast canyon, her silhouette wrapped in a long scarf, gazing toward the glowing light filtering through the cliffs—symbolizing inner echoes and spiritual reflection.
A poetic stillness. Canyon of Echoes captures the space between sound and silence, thought and transformation.
A Black woman stands in stillness facing a tall, partially crumbling brick wall at dawn. Morning light spills through the cracks, hinting at golden meadows beyond. Behind her, a shadowed winding path fades into memory. The sky above her glows with the transition from night to sunrise, symbolizing healing, choice, and a return to self.
Just for today, she stands in the space between fear and promise—eyes open to what the morning light reveals.

I Had a Wonderful Dream

I had a wonderful dream last night

That I was so in love with you

The sea breeze caressed my skin

Underneath the sky so blue

Canyon of Echoes

Sometimes the light seems so distant,

Sometimes a flicker won’t do,

Sometimes the tunnel is winding—

O light in darkness, where are You?

Just for today…

I don’t know what I’m afraid of

A big brick wall before me stands

Proud and tall, standing in the way of

The gift of promise at my command
