A Simple Sunday featuring art by Briana Rose
Sundays are very simple, hence the name. Look at the art and tell us how it inspires you poetically.
So, WELCOME, as we wander for the final time:
We are so happy to present you with an EXTREMELY talented lady:
About the artist (by the artist):
“Life is that eternal struggle for balance and understanding, the thing is when you focus too much on achieving it you miss out on living it.”
“Some have a conversation with poetry as though it were a new lover or a timeless couple, while some treat It like a failing marriage nagging the shit out of it’s very existance. Some ignore the poetry inside, others dance with poetry in perfect harmony, then there are those that use poetry for therapy or to f#ck themselves over and over and over again…it takes all types I suppose…”
On a side note. Bri is also a published poet 9ask her about her book ;0) and an established spoken word artist, with her own show on BTR on Friday nights, called the Nature of Poetry with Briana Roase and Matthew Dean.

To hear her read her poetry is an experience in expression that you won’t soon forget. She can be funny and make you laugh until you cry and she can bring on emotions with her powerful poetry that will keep you wanting more.
She is a phenomenal person who has been someone that I am privileged enough to call a friend. If you want to learn more about her, go to

Bri gave us carte blanche, in choosing from her art. We were going to choose one of her drawings, but then she posted a new genre….digital art. We couldn’t resist, so tonight’s featured art is:
“Shaman Tribal Earth Dream”
please use only this piece of art for tonight’s challenge
****If you choose to format your poetry on this art, please make sure that you credit the artist for her original artwork somewhere on the picture.****
I want to see how crazy creative you’re all going to get with this….so let’s get to it!!!!
You can leave your love for Briana, here, under her flamboyant art
I’ve been having uploading my xfc files to photobucket, so I’ve had to redo my poem on another program. It’s not as cute, but….
Your art is wonderful Briana Rose! My unusual take is not intended to be disrespectful in the least, butt…this is just what my muse saw. So blame him.
Did I post in the right spot this time?
Here’s another bit from me.
Briana Rose is such a treasured friend. Awesome art and pieces posted. Thanks so much for sharing your spectacular artwork today, Bri!
Wow Briana, so glad you are here today with us. Your artwork put a real smile on my face today!! I wish I had half the talent and ability to express myself and feelings like you and all the other talented poets and writers here on FriendBurst. I created FriendBurst with members like you in mind. Its a delight and joy to have you all here.

“Shaman Tribal Earth Dream”
by Briana Rose Locero
UNLOCKING THE DOORS
Mysterious and magical,
those voices I sometimes hear
when all is very silent,
their messages so clear
and my imagination open
to the keys that they hold
to at least some of the mysteries
of this life to behold.
And I make it a point to at least listen
and open my heart and my mind
to the wisdom that’s out there
that this world of ours holds,
the mysteries of the universe
unlocked in so many different ways
when we’re open to and listen
to what we might otherwise fear.
So I listen very carefully
to what others have to say,
for knowledge truly is power
and in learning what we can
from others who’ve unlocked
at least some of the doors
that were sealed up so tight.
And in listening and learning
I find that I’m getting to know
myself a whole lot better
and this path that I’ve been on.

dance a dance as fire swells
sing a chant of future tells
oh so burn a herb sweetly
dream a dream.. as vision see
going places and standing still
heal the broken as their breathing will
be a sky to birds unflocked
he.. a key…. believe un-lock’s
souls color in peace!
