Moon Phases - Adult Poetry Podcast
Welcome to *Moon Phases - Adult Poetry* with your host, Donnie Lansdale.
A new podcast that blends a peaceful and fulfilling bedtime routine with sensual poetry from writers and authors world wide.
I've had the pleasure of hosting several popular podcasts, a late night radio talk show, and I’m a professional audiobook narrator.
Your bedtime routine should be relaxing, and perhaps with a spark of sensuality. Join me on a soothing journey towards restful slumber and peaceful sleep.
In each episode, we take a few moments throughout adult poetry to release the weight of our day, bidding farewell to lingering conversations, anxiety, and stress that may cloud our minds.
As we embark on this tranquil adventure, I invite you to get comfortable and allow yourself to sink into a state of relaxation. It’s time to let go of the worries that have followed you and open your heart to the serenity of the night. Together, we will recharge our spirits and minds, preparing to awaken refreshed and renewed with the dawn.
With gentle words and soothing rhymes, I will guide you into a serene slumber, where dreams await to carry you to a world of peace and tranquility. So, close your eyes, breathe deeply, and let the journey begin. Sweet dreams await you!
This podcast is available on all of your podcast applications, so please submit your adult poetry for consideration on an upcoming episode.

The Music & Lyrics of SADE
Sade is a Grammy Award-winning English band formed in London in 1982. The group is named after lead singer Sade Adu, who is also a songwriter and producer for the group, which also includes Stuart Matthewman, Paul S. Denman, and Andrew Hale as the multi-instrumentalist backing band. Their musical style ties together multiple genres, from funk to smooth jazzy quiet storm R&B/soul—a style labeled as sophisti-pop.
The group members of Sade were in the London group Pride in the early ‘80s before Sade Adu was offered a solo deal with Epic Records, which she only agreed to sign if she could bring Denman, Hale and Matthewman with her. Sade released their multi-platinum debut album Diamond Life in 1984, which featured the hit singles “Your Love is King”, “Hang On To Your Love”, and “Smooth Operator”. They followed that album with Promise the following year, which featured the hit singles “Is It a Crime”, “Never as Good as the First Time”, and “The Sweetest Taboo”. Promise peaked at #1 on the US Billboard 200 chart and sold millions of copies worldwide. The group also won the Best New Artist Grammy Award in 1986 for the success of their first two albums.
Their multi-platinum streak continued with their third album Stronger Than Pride (1988)—featuring the hit singles “Paradise”, “Nothing Can Come Between Us”, “Love is Stronger Than Pride”, and “Turn My Back On You”—as well as their fourth album Love Deluxe (1992), which featured the hit singles “Kiss of Life”, “Cherish the Day”, and “No Ordinary Love”, which won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals.
After an eight-year hiatus, Sade picked up right where they left off with the release of their fifth album, Lovers Rock, on November 13, 2000. The album won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Vocal Album, as their smooth sound was featured on the album’s singles, “By Your Side” and “King of Sorrow”. The group took another lengthy break before releasing their sixth album, Soldier of Love in 2010. The title track won a Grammy Award for Best R&B Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals, while the album peaked at #1 in multiple countries and was another multi-platinum success like all of their previous albums.
