sit , and whisper on her Nutmeg skin.
bask in the golden shimmers of her limbs.
Trust in her eyes .. she'd tell not one lie.
She'd trust in your shadows ..
crave your satisfaction .. travel through the narrow,
tunnels of your mind.
stand , by her.
loyalty covers all of you ..
no quest will you find your self lost
along side at no cost ..
bearing fruit you can sink into your teeth
thank the heavens when you breathe.
but time will pass ..
treasuring the moon & welcoming the Sun's Brass
toting your high horse , you'll mount
leaving the key for another.
ill be in this cage .. waiting to give my love to another.

watching the mist engulf him ..
there will never be another ..
just a summer .. a damaged lover.
he'll return ..
same ol key to turn ..
same fire that burns  ..
lone' to watch him return ..
to be free was seldom
but he .. was always welcome ..

Samara
comes
without
warning.
"Why did I ever
choose to fall in love?",
He asked her.

Without hesitation,
She showed him a glimmering piece of her own broken heart.

"Love isnt something we choose.
We miss a step,
Lose our footing,
And we're happy.
Falling for....
Who knows how long...
And then we get hurt.
But between the edge of the cliff
And the terrible fate below
Is such a wonderful experience
That takes you
Into such a warm embrace..
Until it..lets go.
..At least,
Thats how I see it"

And he who listened,
With a heart just as sore,
Knew she was right
Because she spoke from her heart.

"A quite painful endeavor,
Once you land",
He remarked.
All she could do was nod.
"I keep longing for that connection or love but I know it isnt going to come",
Left his lips suddenly.
"It will in its own time...
If you let it"
Sometimes real moments can be poetic too.
Knowing we'll find
woes in our wake,
For nature's work was
profaned and wasted.
I liked sadness
Or so I thought
Until Nature
Presented herself
Before me
Where moonlight
And starlit skies
Danced before me
And the magic
Sound of frogs
Croaked goodnight
Amidst the stilling waters
The hush of mommas
Singing sweet lullabies
To their children
Dogs waiting by their
Master's slippers
Hoping for one
Last walk
Fires glowinginside
Sending signals of smoke
To travel.in
The sky
Perhaps it's not
So bad after all
To join in
The rhythm of
The night
Knowing.somewhere
You are loved
..
& hold it
to your heart
in the key
of G

..

& for those of you who like to read more.....

..
the key of G is warm
like toast & jam

holding space
is like chilli
& ice

Scream.
silently
in the breath of the one who knows
& feels
just like you
..


Hear the hush of the wind dance above
Through lush lands of green eagerly spread
Birds soar and swoop, butterflies kiss foxgloves
Laughter rings wherever humans tread

Through lush lands of green eagerly spread
As glass blades sway soft and sweet
Laughter rings wherever humans tread
On nature's palm, they openly meet

◦•●◉✿ ⚜❃⚜ ✿◉●•◦

As glass blades sway soft and sweet
Birdsong heard near and far
On nature's palm, they openly meet
A simple serenade to forget life's scars


The day's a grey one but even so, I wanna think of something sunny and happy. While looking for courses to try, I found a new form of poetry to experiment with - pantoum. Pantoum poems are described as 'a poem of any length, composed of four-line stanzas in which the second and fourth lines of each stanza serve as the first and third lines of the next stanza. The last line of a pantoum is often the same as the first.' [Credit goes to this site: https://poets.org/glossary/pantoum]

First time doing this poem, and I think it turned out really well.
I just pictured myself at a park and focused on my senses.
I think I may do more of these, I'm really happy with the end result! ^-^
Thanks everyone, wishing you a good day/afternoon/evening/night!

Stay safe and well!
Be back soon!
Much love!

You see the face that I show you , all the things you believe and want it to be.
The layers of make-believe that made me,
Never ceased to ease the pain burning within.
The faces that you seek, and the faces that you see.
Hide all the fire held in me.
