Take your place in time
Where you will never be forgotten
Take your place in time where you will never be forgotten
🌕
Forgotten, as we remember the people we used to be
🌖
Be that one who sees all and stands tall
🌗
Tall as the mountains in the world, we barely know
🌘
Know that there is nothing we can’t resist
🌑
Resist the urge to criticize your worth
🌒
Worth not measured in dollar signs or tablespoons of salt
🌓
Salt of the Earth, stories of who came before
🌔
Before you recognize your worth as something someone can take
🌕
Take your place in time

Very cool format. I am going to try it as a contest format in my writers group in February. Thank you.😊💕💗
“Worth not measured in dollar signs or tablespoons of salt” 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼💚
Brilliant & beautiful!!! Love this!!!💕♥️♥️
A very inspiring and empowering poem 😊 and I especially like the structure/form of it. I misunderstood the q&a section of Spotify when asked you a question (I fixed it now, realising it was supposed to be me answering a question 🤣), so wanted to ask the question again here: I don't think I seen this form anywhere else here (I'm not too familiar with poetry so I don't know if this is something that exists already), anyways, I wanted to ask if you'd be okay with me writing a poem in this format. I like finding new ways to write poems from vocal writers, it makes it more fun
So powerful Jazzy. The last two lines were my favourite
Definitely words to live by. Thank you for the kick in the butt to remind me. I often for to "take my place" and just relax and fall back. Awesome writing.
Wow! that's a unique way of writing (I will try that too...hehehe)
This was soooo beautiful! And I loved the format of the poem!
I love how you integrated this with the phases of the moon as little line-markers, reminding us that we are ever-evolving and changing, like the moon, but just as deserving of taking up space. :)
Yes! Beautifully stated! 🙌🏼
very uplifting reminder of personal worth.
Wonderful poem
