M.I.A (Mikaila's Idling Announcement)

beautiful Atomik you are a truly gifted writer
I understand about putting yourself under pressure
to write quality writing everyday you are a gifted writer
& never disappoint..

I have to take days off & I feel bad
but it is a lot of pressure just keeping of with the site..

I will look forward to when you do post..

love Crim

Yes, it really really is. And it's rough, all of my friends here, and tons of other people I'm not even in regular contact with are excellent writers and deserve feedback and support.

Thank you so much Crim, you have nothing to feel bad about <3 I appreciate the love very much!

Bless ye, blessed sweet........let's not take this shit so seriously,,,,, but do what you must.
You are a great talent in fuckin'about wit the mindwords so bloody essential to bein beings. Whatever that does/doesn't 'mean'.......
I love you.

Thank you so much uncle Dan! Maybe I am taking it too seriously haha! :) But at the same time, people work hard at it and I'd love to be there for it all. There's a balance though, for sure!

No one here

can do it all......

gets overwhelming when you get t'where ye feel obliged to encourage Everybody.....bless ye again and again, (or else!)

:-(((((((( I will really miss you, your comments and your wonderful poetry :-((((((((

sending you a huge sad pouty face and 1000 Scottish bear hugs

I will miss you until your return :-)) :-(((((((((((((((

I just about manage it and I am here all day so my task should be easy but I still fall behind, like now :-( I sometimes forget that people have real lives as well - I don't yet have that problem if you cut down and only commented on 1 in 19 of my poems I would still be happy to see you :-)))))

I'll still be here from time to time, but also part of it is that I don't have my computer up yet and I do it all by phone. Some days it can be well over an hour of texting through comments and messages, as well as uploading,  without even counting acrually writing. So, it's gotta be scaled down. I've got family :)

I cannot hug to back hard enough my friend (alas, I'm not Scottish lol!) you're an excellent dude and I'm lucky to call you my friend.

thank you so much for such a beautiful response - lump in the throat - but I cant cry because I am a Scotsman (lol)

Well I'm Lithuanian/French, and dammit, I'll shed an extra for you 😢

Follow your feet.  There's nothing stalled when it is presented in its time.  (hugs)

Is that like "A wizard is never late..."!? ;)

That sounds like a prompt!!!

Ahhhhh!!! I'm nuts about Gandalf, I would love nothing more. Let's do it! I'm dead serious haha!

It's on my to-do list for Thursday.  I'll be sure to include Gandolf  (I mean Gandalf... hmm... there could be something there).

Heck yes!!

My friends
my friends...
 
Weariness begs it's  
end
 
So I've folded
into the sheets
of real time concrete
 
Stalling installments
 
And following...
 
My feet
 

 
 
***

We heard the call
we heard the call

came running; found life bitter sweet

she bottled up the chamomile,the rosemary,and thyme
the common sage,those catnip days that lulled us back in line

we swallowed hard
unbeknownst this stranger
turned into a friend

we'll have the tea pot on for you
whenever you return again

                                 

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

we'll miss you more than you'll ever know.
you came,you inspired,breathed life back into those that desired.
filled up our herb cabinets
wooden with dovetails,glass to see in
from the garden
and now it's time to hibernate for the winter.

we would far more have your writings than a critique.

no stress and many good vibes coming your way.


p.s. i want a signed copy of your chapbook when you publish still.
           
                                                                -Sean M.

Dude! You just spin stuff out like it's nothin!

I'm not *gone* gone, just taking it easy and may (probably will) take a couple days off sometimes. Your encouragement and friendship means so much Sean, you've been here from the beginning, and something tells me, at the end whenever it comes.

What's your brew of choice? :)

I'd take shiner bock or a yuengling ,followed by a shot of Jack Daniels.

I'm sure this is my most favorite "call and reply" poem ever.

Let it come naturally, AtoMikOne! A sponge must also absorb to be able to give. ❤📝

That's a sweet analogy! Thank you <3

(w)rite on.......Mika !
