Poet Northstar
Bio
Hello, folks! Yes, I really do go by "Northstar". I started writing in high school back in 1995 and I have been active as a performing poet & open mic host since 1999. I'm getting back into videography and am considering photography.

Conversation
Conversation... I told myself that this was the best that I could ask for Simple conversation Yet my words are anything but simple . Meandering metaphor attempting to weave coherent conscious thought , all as I’m lost in the allure of this moment between us. Words flood my mind and fail my intentions, increasing apprehension.

Sunflowers
Something in the way her hair balters like breeze-blown petals against a deep blue backdrop... the sun is her spotlight as she sways serene and strong. In a crowd she stands out. Not in spectacle, but with eyes beaming beauty beckoning for a kindred soul to join her as she stops to savor the scent in the wind. Her presence causes the surrounding cacophony to settle into an afternoon serenade. Strong enough to be vulnerable, humble, and confident, she does not solicit attention, yet she reciprocates interest in constant growth. Her perceived imperfections are what makes her perfectly unique. This is not the polished vanity worn by so many who would presume to pluck her from her fields of splendor and claim her as their own... rather... this is my perception (and admitted adoration) of her true nature. This... is why I LOVE sunflowers.
