William S. Peters, USA

Just Bill aka William S. Peters, Sr. is the Proud Single Father of 11 children and 7 Grandchildren.

He has been writing for over 40 years, expressing his thoughts on matters of the Heart, Spirit, Consciousness and Humanity. His primary focus is that of Love, Peace and Understanding! Due to his own personal circumstances that “Life’s Travels” has presented to him such as the Crossing Over of his Beloved Wife, Virisa on 2 July 2006, he says he found himself deeply immersed in an abysmal place filled with convoluting voices of Love, Light, Darkness, Despair and Understanding. These Voices transmuted to feelings and thus to insights and thus to the expressive words you will find all over the internet. 

Bill is not only a Writer / Poet, but he is also a Public Speaker, Empowerment Work Shop Leader, Consultant, Activist, Video Producer, Spoken Word and Recording Artist and so much more. He also is the Director of Inner Child Enterprises as well as the Director of Publicity for Society Hill Music. Bill is involved in well over 80 Social and Writing Sites to include My Space, FaceBook, Inner Child, Adelle Conexxions, Humanity Healing, it’s a Beautiful World, Black Preaching Network, etc., and many, many more. He has accumulated several thousands of Readers and Friends from all over the Globe. Bill was recently featured in Big The Magazine, which incidentally he won the esteemed “Person of the Year Award” for the Year 2009 – 2010. He has been featured on countless Sites for his Insightful Spiritual Loving touch found in the words of his Expressions in Poetry, Story and Analogy. He has published 13 book, his latest offering a Poetic Collection “the light in the window’, which incidentally is available for purchase at his Web Site.

let us be Spring filled

i tire of Death
and the regenerative energies
that life affords us
in this season
winter

i do understand it’s purpose
and it is necessary
i think

i am feeling full of expectation
i am living this day
in the Spring
i am growing
in a knowing
that i can continue sowing
seeds of hope
regardless the time of year

i will dig a hole
in the frozen soils of my consciousness
and plant seeds
anyway

i will nurture them
with the warmth of my love
and pour my re-intensified spirit
upon them

they WILL sprout, bud and leaf
and blossom
and the fruit will be early
and sweet
for i have changed my own seasons
unto my pleasing
and the limits
no longer exist
upon the equator
of my understanding

let us be Spring filled

Le të mbushemi me pranverë

unë i lodhur nga vdekja
dhe energji ringjallëse
të cilat jeta na i dhuron
në këtë stinë
dimri

unë e kuptoj qëllimin
dhe është e domosdoshme
mendoj

ndjehem përplot të pritura
këtë ditë e jetoj
në pranverë
unë rritem
në njohje
se mund të vazhdoj të mbjell
farë shprese
pa marrë parasysh stinën e vitit

do ta mih një gropë
në dhera të ngrira të vetëdijes sime
dhe farë mbjell
sidoqoftë

do i mëkoj

me ngrohtësinë e dashurisë sime

dhe derdh shpirtin tim të sforcuar
mbi ta

ata DO  të mugullojnë, sythet dhe gjethet
dhe lulet
dhe frutat do jenë të hershme
dhe të ëmbla
sepse unë kam ndërruar stinët e mia
në kënaqësi
dhe kufijtë
nuk ekzistojnë më
mbi ekuatorin
e të kuptuarit të mi

le të mbushemi me pranverë
