Poem of the Day: Quiet Storm by David Weeks

QUIET STORM
(Love Scenes)

Evening Sun sets
Giving way to the night
The Moon rises
Mellow with a yellow glow
As if moving to a jazzy groove
Setting the mood for our evening
Of serenity and peace
A night of Quiet bliss

Midnight Blue sky
Deep blue with passion and emotions
In The Mood For Love
Our anticipation
An Intimate Rumble

Warm front, Cool front merge
High pressure, Low pressure settles
Warm air, Cool air entwine
A night set for a Quiet Storm

Storm winds
Gently carries us across the night sky

The ease in the breeze
Brings a moment of tranquility
White clouds painted on a canvas
Of sky blue, softens the mood
The mist in the air sprinkles us
We are blessed by Morning Light

We made it through the Quiet Storm

About Liberated Muse Arts Group

Liberated Muse Arts Group is a collective of performers, writers, singers, actors and visual artists who gather to transform spaces into art places.

In 2008, the digital community LiberatedMuse.com was born, connecting creatives from around the globe to discuss, collaborate and fellowship. Hundreds have connected through the online portal, beginning meaningful relationships leading to further creative collaborations and ongoing partnerships. You can join the community for free if you are a creative literary, performing, or visual artist.

Liberated Muse Productions (2008-2010) produced the annual Capital Hip Hop Soul Fest held in Washington DC’s Marvin Gaye Park for three years and after the dissolution of Liberated Muse Productions, Liberated Muse Arts Group became the new name of the umbrella of services in 2011, producing events and theatrical productions throughout the Washington DC metro area.

The Liberated Muse brand has produced and co-sponsored dozens of events since 2008, including:

I’m Every Woman: A SWAN Day Event (2012)

In Her Words (2012)

A Celebration of Freedom: A Juneteenth Celebration (2011)

The aim of Liberated Muse Arts Group is to continuously challenge the notion of an “arts space” by programming in spaces that are not traditionally considered popular art spaces while continuing to use traditional spaces as a balance. We wholeheartedly support artist-owned and community-based venues that connects arts programming to populations that typically don’t have access to professional, high-quality artistry. Past locations for programming have included:

Marvin Gaye Park (Washington DC)

The Potter’s House (Washington DC)

The Bonifant Theater (Silver Spring, MD)

Martin Luther King Public Library (Washington DC)

Oxon Hill Public Library (Oxon Hill, MD)

Little Black Pearl (Chicago, IL)

The Artomatic (Washington, DC)

ArtSpring (Silver Spring, MD)

Capitol North Neighborhood Library (Washington, DC)

The United States Peace Corps headquarters (Washington, DC)

The Corner Store (Washington, DC)

Annie’s Art Gallery (Camp Springs, MD)

Germano’s (Baltimore, MD)
