I do see, with or without looking ~ (a totally undestined tale) +Spoken Word
I looked for you today
even through the
stillness
I thought I saw your colors,
our favorites
of purple and red
butterflies roam
in the garden we created
from a smallish inkling
of pure and mystical
loving those fairies
we both chased like fireflies
O' we beings of magic
born from a likeness
of pain
and hearts
that have grown too big
I thought I caught a glimpse
unmistakable
so brilliant bright
in your exquisite hue
(how I know you)
yours, are perfect words
ingrained
of all that my mind knows
as home
I thought I saw us
covered in bliss and fate
with bits of garden
clinging
as we shared our stories
of forever

Thats so tender, caring, loving i read that and my heart felt a longing for my big sister who passed away, I remembered playing in fields and parks. I'm not sure why that all sprang to mind

beautiful
increasingly i see
you leaving most of us behind
in your writing
kinda jealous
that you can express so eloquently
i can only dream of doing
I am in your shadow
if i was ever a light
you out shine it

My dearest Colin,
I think the first three times I read these comments (without bursting into tears.. lol ) was when I finally realized or understood the reason that fate or destiny collided us together all those months ago. You support me in just the way I need it and I do the same thing, on your behalf. Even though we're a completely weirdo combination (I say with love and the most affection) to be such good friends, we just are. We just work. YOU are a light, even if you think otherwise. You will always be that to me. You are responsible for such a large portion of my growth as a writer that I'll never be able to thank you or properly convey it enough. I am grateful for you, every day, my friend... and now, I cannot ever envision my life without you. A thousand thank you's and all my love from across the pond,
🌹✨💫✨🌹

I couldn't agree more, KP. The garden is a solace for me and always seems to turn my mood around, when I get my hands dirty a bit.... Ty for sharing your thoughts and for the generous list add. My soul was poured into this one; tears ran down my cheeks as I wrote it....some for reasons I know and some for reasons I am still trying to understand. So, with that admitted bit of raw honesty, I am truly and sincerely full of gratitude that you enjoyed my little journey here -

Dear BV,
Harumph! You promised something mediocre. This. Is. Not. That. Something! Its like youre not even trying.
Just messin with ya. Honestly, this is too close to home and too touching for me to maintain a stiff upper lip. So I hide behind my façade of stupid humor.
born from a likeness
of pain
and hearts
that have grown too big this is wildly superb. On a personal note Im choked because we still cant quite get it right. Alas, a beautiful write. Again. 😉

The emotional nuances are so well rendered, subtly walking through the substrate of the monologue as it paints the milieu. Masterfully done. It is technique I often recommend to render full dimensions to writing.

Oh my, Lady Blue ❣️❣️ I am so touched by this piece and your reading of it. I felt such a pleasant tingle when i heard your voice utter the first line. I can't get enough of listening to this very romantic verse.
I was overtaken by emotion when reading and later hearing these words,
"born from a likeness
of pain
and hearts
that have grown too big"
We two are kindred spirits in this regard.
And my emotion overflowed with this passage,
"of all that my mind knows
as home"
The images evoked of a playful frolic by this passage just increased my joy,
"covered in bliss and fate
with bits of garden
clinging"
Bravissima, Goddess BB...an exquisite love letter 🐻💋🐻💋🐻

It's a pleasure to behold and read. I soooooo stopped in my tracks when I read that you'me were over taken with emotion and.. - I just marvel. Me??!??
I was able to elicit THAT? (no way!) I still have a hard time reconciling that in my mind. I am utterly and deeply appreciative.... You have no idea!!!
