[ Dear Sagittarius ]
you bring waves
I'll pack blue skies
we'll do road trips
in a VW bus, hand painted
with flowers & peace signs
creating new memories
for future Lips.
I can't stop either! 😆 🤣

For our sun, I shall barter
while you word
the grade. Never have we
seen a writer so supreme
or we more suspect
works for
Her Majesty The Queen.

chaotic neutral
hid behind spaces
your gifts are in fine
detail
caressing concrete
every
single
crack
is refuge for parasites
or
a chance
to grow flowers
for Eamonn
lepperochan
----
down your street
those small moments
when war
breaks
your window
glows warm
candlelight
slow
shadows
and i smile
in passing
for Ethan

belladonna
you were
a king snake
swaying like
a coral
wrote like danger
was in your ring
itching
to spill into the world
but your reign
was one of love
for Joss
belladonna
----
quintillion
it's as if these days
all end soaked in red
stretched over miles
of whispering temples
formed of trees
your words
covering the expanse
hanging through them
in brume

Four thousand poems in a book is
a plethora of reading. Congratulations!
We're grateful your words of wisdom

good evening wonderful beans, i should have probably been clearer in the info box thingymajiggy
(that i often hate writing in whenever i come up with something cause i'm an awkward turtle at the best of times)
but this isn't a comp thread so my apologies for that, this is a speakeasy thread which can remain here for anybody who wishes to contribute anytime, anywhere, even hanging from a ceiling if you wish to ☺️
these contributions have all been wonders to read, some even made me well up on the train on my way home yesterday evening (screw all of you for that)🥹
... i jest of course,
in all seriousness thank you for all your wonderful contributions so far, i'm sure there's been many smiles gazing upon individual screens and i hope you're smiling out there today too ☺️
love atcha all :]

Aww. Love at you awkward turtle 🐢 🥰
I’m guilty in that I originally thought it was a comp until I realised it wasn’t 🤣 but you have prompted me to book an eye test so at least some good came out of it!
Thank you for this space to spread some happy. I’m very grateful to you and to all that have written these gorgeous little snippets throughout.
Cheers and stuff 💚
