Kenlo Bertram Biography

I am a woman who is native to Pennsylvania and all its beauty. I write often in the style of my father, Dr. Kenton W. Bertram, who published a collection of poems called: 'Rhymes of the Times' and wrote many other poems and tales of life in the French Creek Valley and other scenic and historic spots in Northwestern Pennsylvania and the Allegheny mountains. I can never compare to his talent and gift in my humble words, and my style often rambles, but I hope to express and reflect on the beauty of our home. This e-book is a collection of nature-related poems and a few other descriptive pieces. I live and work in Meadville, PA in Crawford County and hope to retire to write more than time now allows. I am also a student and reside with my best friend and boyfriend Ben (also a very talented and published poet, check out 'Poetic Laughter' from trafford publishing, available for purchase on Amazon.com! !) and our two kittens Misty and Patchy.)

The Best Poem Of Kenlo Bertram

The Storyteller's Web

Binding him tightly each nightfall
With dexterious craft and skill
In spite of the teachings of artistic tongues
Her words were what compelled him still.
Her beauty was unmatched on this earth
Like a bright jewel she constantly glittered
Even in lamplit semi-darkness
Surrounded by what feasting had littered
A setting hallowed by nature
Every color the spectrum produced
Was matched in her tapestry garments
Set to please the king this servant seduced.
But her mind was the source of seduction
Wordplay the most intense stimulation
While other dazzling sights filled his harem
They fell short and seemed only simulation.
Quick wits and a talent for flourish
Are what saves the best lives come what may
Anticipation of hanging on each rouge-lipped sentence
Is the highest compliment any can pay.
