Native Heartbeat (spoken-word #poetry)

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , , , , , on November 2, 2023| 3 Comments »

Jogging in the rain seemed like the best thing to do…

Native Heartbeat was written in an environment of puddles and concrete. I’m happy that it found a dry, safe home in the pages of Bards Annual 2023.

You can read the poem below or hear me recite the spoken-word version by pressing the PLAY button.

Thank you to publisher, James P. Wagner. Thank you also to Grandfather Rock of WCWP radio for playing Native Heartbeat on Rock-n-Soul Gospel (Fridays 9 PM – 11 PM). Special thanks to Mark Phillips for his befitting composition and lovely guitar work.

All poems (c) Mary CM Phillips are available on iTunes and most streaming platforms.

In late 2020, after COVID had altered our lives — as it did for so many others — we decided to move from our home in Long Island to the bucolic hills of Pennsylvania.

TRANSPLANT is a spoken-word poem written just after we moved.

The poem asks a question. Does Nature herself hold memories as we do?

Hope you enjoy it.

Guitar work and production by Mark Phillips.

Transplant can be streamed on Spotify or downloaded from iTunes. The poem also appears, in written form, in the new anthology, The Pennsylvania Bards Eastern PA Poetry Review (available on amazon).
