Pen Poem: Imaginative Poetry From Garden Of Poems

by tiffanyGarden Of Poems, my creative self, Poetry, Poetry Portfolio August 20, 2025July 31, 2025No Comments

Pierce me with your
 ink filled sword,
force your words to linger
as they twist inside,
because murder is never sweet,
unless it's in the mind
causing a new reality to live.
So murder my mind
with words of wonder.
Let the sharp bladed images
of your prose or verse
slice out the mundane,
so that I may live among your ink
until the new understandings take hold
and I am reborn with new light 
into a new life.

I have a few things for you if you want to read or learn more about me or this book. First I do have a page dedicated to all things Garden of Poems. I also have my wonderful portfolio of poetry, a Youtube playlist for poetry readings, and you can of course purchase the book on Amazon. You can also follow my writing journey on Instagram.

Bird or fish? Contemplative Poetry From Garden Of Poems

by tiffanyGarden Of Poems, Poetry, Poetry Portfolio August 6, 2025July 23, 2025No Comments

Staring at the valleys
the mountains
the depths, the sea
I thought I could fly
but held my wings back.
If I jump will I take flight
soaring above my cares
flying away from my fears?
Or will I fall
into the dark deep sea
drowning in a new world
I do not know.

Will I become
a fish in the great unknown?
Am I a bird or a fish?
Can you tell me, please
or is it something for me to find out,
something for me to learn,
for me to decide?

Goes the Clock: A Simple Poetry Excerpt From Garden Of Poems

by tiffanyGarden Of Poems, Poetry, Poetry Portfolio July 30, 2025July 23, 2025No Comments

Tick tock goes the clock
 as the waves rolls in time may fly
 or time may stop 
the waves crashes on the shore either way.
Tick tock goes the clock
 as the sun shines on
 time may fly 
or time may stop
 the sun will heat the sand either way.
Tick tock goes the clock
 it's far far away
 time may fly
 or time may stop 
we won't pay attention either way.

A Beauty and A Beast: Poetry Found in Garden Of Poems

by tiffanyGarden Of Poems, Poetry, Poetry Portfolio July 23, 2025July 23, 2025No Comments

I longed for a strong hero,
a beauty to lean on,
a beast to help me on my way,
so exploration was started.
Who could complete me?
Where was he?

Inner findings
led to inner peace
and I found my strong hero,
she was there
inside of me.

Yes, I find my beauty
the more I explore my beast.
Both inside, both me,
and I am complete.

I may not know how
to capture one's heart,
but I can capture their arms
and that's alright with me.
I know I always seem on guard,
unless you are in my guard,
then I am my hero,
and I remember
I already know my way
and I am the only version of me.

Yes, I find my beauty
the more I explore my beast.
Both inside, both me
and I am complete.

Extraordinary: A poem from Garden of Poems

by tiffanyGarden Of Poems, Poetry, Poetry Portfolio, Uncategorized July 16, 2025July 23, 2025No Comments

Extraordinary is an imaginative poem from Garden Of Poems. I published this poetry book in 2021.

Garden of Poems book cover. Poetry book by Tiffany Joy

I look to the future
with my dreams pushed back.
What road do I travel;
Where does it lead?
Will my someday come to play?
Or will another story unravel?
Will my thoughts stay a thought
Will my life be normal?

Please, let the mediocrity subside
For I dream of being extraordinary
Let me be amazed with how far I travel.
Let this road lead me to a life worth dreaming of.

If nothing else I hope this road leads
to a dance with my mate
to a life lived 
and ends with an extraordinary story to tell.

The Thrill of Holding Your New Book: A Poem

by tiffanyPoetry May 18, 2021February 2, 2021No Comments

“The Thrill Of Holding You New Book” is a short poem I wrote when I published Garden Of Poems.

Excitement brews and bubbles.
Oh what a thrill
to hold your struggles in your hand
to embrace your heart printed on the page.

A book cannot smile
so I double my grin.
My normal smile for my joy
then double for him.
My new born boook
I get to hold and embrace.
Oh what a thrill.

Patter Of Rain: A Poem

by tiffanyPoetry May 4, 2021February 2, 2021No Comments

Listen to the patter of the rain.
It feeds the thirday earth,
changing the dried tan field
to a plush green meadow;
a blanket of love.
Turned on a faucet above
caused life to bloom
so shortly after its gloom.
It washes away the past
giving hope to thefuture.
All is right with the world
so listen to the patter of the rain.

My Mighty Morning Prayer

by tiffanyPoetry April 20, 2021February 2, 2021No Comments

My Mighty Morning Prayer is a prayer in poem form that I pray in the morning when I don’t really know what to say.

Lord God Almighty
You are king of kings
and Lord of lords.
You've blessed my life abundantly.
I know You love me.
Lord God, You are with me daily.
Please open my eyes to see Your works.
Open my ears to hear Your voice
and my heart and mind
to know Your discernment and wisdom.
You are mighty to give and wonderful to answer prayers.
Thank You for all you do 
and thank you for who You are.

Amen.

Pen Poem: Garden of Poem Excerpt

by tiffanyGarden Of Poems April 10, 2021January 29, 2024No Comments

In late January 2021, I published my poetry book Garden of Poems. It is filled with poetry from 2013-2020. Pen Poem is one of the excerpts from the book.

Pierce me with your
ink filled sword,
force your words to linger
as they twist inside,
because murder is never sweet,
unless it's in the mind
causing a new reality to live.
So murder my mind
with words of wonder.

so that I may live among your ink
until the new understandings take hold
and I am reborn with new light
