  • Poetry’s Healing Mystery – Poetesses and their Prophetic Verses – The Goddess in Poetry

    Dear Lovestar,

    I am a poetess. This means I am a poet who writes from her femininity. It also means I have a connection to history. Poetess is a word you find in ancient history, which also means it is a word that is connected to ancient mystery.

    Poetry is alive and well, thanks for asking

    As a mouthpiece for poetry, I am not humble about my relationship with poetry. Which doesn’t mean that I am egotistical about poems I write, because they don’t belong to me, poems simply exist, I hear them, then, since they’re energy, I translate them into words.

    My poetry, comprised of thoughts I hear, spirit talk, my conversations with Venus, inspired inspiration, channeled stuff, thoughts that come through, and more. I have made myself open to the lady poetry and as a humble (I was not humble in the previous paragraph, but I change fast lol) slave to poetry, poetry showers me with all kinds of creations.

    Poetesses have evolved, but we’re not extinct

    I am Cuban, Spanish my first language. Spanish is a gendered language, which means I am very comfortable using language that exposes my gender, example “amiga” female friend vs “amigo” male friend, I am an “amiga”. I don’t feel uncomfortable, at all, about gendered language including the feminine form of a noun that describes me, or the adjectives that are used to describe me.

    In fact, I am very proud to be a female, and I do mostly everything from my femininity.

    I do not like this new drive to be masculine and I do not resonate with it.

    I also do not believe that using feminine words takes anything from me, on the contrary. Know I am not a poet, I am a poetess. Ready to fall is Love?

    Poetess poetry

    Free my light
    From the claws of the dark
    The darkest darks,
    The sad implants
    I've received this life.
    Free my light,
    And earn my Love.

    Why are Poetesses dangerous?

    Poetess write with the heart:
    Beating blood stains her verse.
    Her Love is a superpower,
    She fears no emotion,
    Her expression pure and raw.
    A poetess has a connection,
    Secret, but connected to the divine.
    Pure mystery, what is feeding her?

    The Mystery of Poetry

    Beloveds, I am but a simple mouthpiece, through me come poetry, but understanding is not of our dimension. I do not understand the mystery of poetry, I simply know there is mystery here.

    I study this mystery, and I will continue to talk about this mystery and any clue I find, I will share, of course.

  • Old poem week: Speaking on paper

    Dear Lovestar,

    Do you feel like me?

    “It’s not easy being me” speaks to the challenge of being a poet—someone who deeply values words, their meaning, and how they’re crafted. Writing allows you to take time, reflect, and carefully select the perfect words to express your thoughts and emotions. But when it comes to speaking, there’s less control, and that same level of precision can feel harder to achieve. 🌿✍️

    For poets, especially spiritual ones, words are not just communication—they are magic, spells, and art. So, while writing allows for the creation of something perfect and intentional, speaking feels raw, unfiltered, and sometimes harder to manage.

    The poem expresses how the poet’s true self shines on paper, where every word is chosen with care and meaning, but when it comes to speaking, it can feel more difficult to convey the same depth and beauty.

    And you, how is your communication most effective?

    With Love,

    Eve

  • The Sea, Venus, and Italian poetry

    Dear Lovestar,

    I wrote a poem half in Italian

    Italian is a very poetic language and I am learning some Italian, simply for fun. Writing poetry in Italian is easier than in Latin for me because Latin, being a dead language is much more difficult thatn Italian, even though I have barely studied Italian.

    I am learning Italian because I think it would help me in my Latin learning journey, and also because I thought it would be easy, then I find the beautiful Italian poetry and figure it was meant to be!

    Some themes I noticed in Italian art and music. I speak soon, but Italian music (I have been listening and singing for my learning and I will talk of it again) talks a lot about the heart (il cuore), Spanish also. In fact in Spanish, we call a beloved person mi corazon (my heart).

    Italian music also mentions this word a parola which means word. It is mentioned so much that I learned the word from music and looked it up, then learned the meaning. O have to learn more but it appears that it is used as one’s word, a word, the feelings in words, the meaning, things like that. By comparison, we do not use the word “word” in English as much in poetry.

    Anf the third theme I noticed was the sea. It makes sense since Italy is surrounded by sea basically. It appears that Italians love the sea and they inmortalie it in their art. In a beautiful song I heard a man singing he was going to the sea and to find a mermaid (Sono una sirena = I am a mermaid)

    It is not pure luck that all these things are related. It is all meant to be. Example, Venus, the Roman was ancient Italian, basically, see why she was born at sea? Well, of course, because she was born in Greece, an island as Aphrodite. Venus (the Roman Aphrodite) was seen as the mother of Rome (the now capital of Italy).

    In my poetry, I did not inlcude parola because I need to understand the word more.

    English translation:

    My heart lives in the sea
    Its vastness, like my love,
    Its calm, its color,
    Its profundity, my soul.

    Italian poetry. Dante and his divine comedy

    Did you know that the popular Italian poet Dante Alighieri was exiled? I need to know more about this man’s history.

    Dante Alighieri’s “Divine Comedy,” written in the early 14th century, is a seminal work in Italian literature and a cornerstone of Western cultural heritage. This epic poem, composed of three parts—Inferno, Purgatorio, and Paradiso—traces the journey of the soul through Hell, Purgatory, and Heaven.

    Dante’s choice to write in vernacular Italian rather than Latin was revolutionary, elevating the Tuscan dialect to a prominent literary language and setting a precedent for modern Italian. His work not only advanced Italian literary tradition but also profoundly influenced subsequent writers and thinkers, solidifying his role as a pivotal figure in the evolution of Italian language and literature. I learned this from Podcast Italiano on Youtube.

    Dante was exiled from Florence in 1302 due to political conflicts. He had been involved in the complex political and factional struggles of Florence, which led to his banishment. The “Divine Comedy” was written during his exile and is often seen as a reflection of his personal and political grievances, as well as his broader philosophical and theological concerns. The work itself did not cause his exile, but it did encapsulate his views on justice, politics, and morality, which were influenced by his experiences of exile.

    But was he exiled because of his poetry? Was he using poetry to attack his political enemies?

    The fault is of politics, obviously! Yet, poets will poet. And yes, I used poet as a verb.

    Learning some Italian,

    Eve
