Poetry Changes Lives – I'm Chris, a beauty-loving grandpa, I read a classic poem, a moment in history and a thought, each day - and talk about poetry in general.
All my videos are researched, narrated, and produced by me to provide educational and therapeutic value through poetry
MY BOOK– Poetry Changes Lives - is explained further at www.poetrychangeslives.com
DAILY POEMS inspire, comfort, and heal us as well as entertain. Poetry has a power like no other to change our emotions, and thus change our thoughts and actions.

Big news, everyone! We just hit the milestone to enable Super Chat and Super Thanks! 🥳
This means you can now highlight your questions during our live hangouts or show extra appreciation on your favorite videos - if you have a mind to!
I’m so grateful for all the support that’s got us this far.
A question today:
Should our next live stream be a Q&A or a deep dive into my current topic - How does poetry calm us and help us sleep, and can both reading and writing poetry help?
Please let me know below! 👇"

Hello Everyone,
Some of your recent comments have been both kind and also amazingly interesting - You have pointed me to writers and work that I had not met before which is always exciting. Please keep them coming!
But, I'm also very touched that so many of you have shared how you have been affected by addiction and other mental health issues. It is a special interest of mine, from personal experience. I've today started a new playlist that focuses on this aspect - Healing Poems for Addiction Recovery - and will be building it up over the next few weeks.
Thankyou all again for your support and encouragement - it's yet more evidence to me, of the power of poetry.
Best wishes,
Chris.

Tomorrow evening I’m uploading a long, quiet reading from my Commonplace Book - a notebook of favourite poems I’ve kept since I was a schoolboy.
It’s meant for rest, sleep, or simply company in the night. No pressure…
