savoring.
the cool wind rustles
it's the last
of those breezes
that soothe
washing gently over
like silken tickles
allowing a clarity
of mind
body
and
soul
lulling the
night
into a pleasant slumber
and quietly reminding
to be exactly this—
in the moment
aware
intently appreciative
of now
letting tomorrow,
just be—
tomorrow.

Dear, Lady Blue, I love this. I can feel the breeze "washing gently over
like silken tickles" that passage makes me sigh-smile. You paint a serene scene one that makes one want to join you. Bravissima❣️❣️

I'm always late to the party, Blue.
This is just lovely and so absolutely fine.
It is amazing how words placed just so can evoke emotion.

My lovely friend,
You're not late, I was just up late late late last night and this spilled forth! I'm all smiles that you like it. It really did roll off my fingers as I sat on my back porch.... I appreciate your thoughtful remarks, Jav

You allow your writing to unfold in it's own time, with subtle, organic elegance. You imbue the environment with emotion, allowing it to be felt, rather than plain statement, it is the music of the shadows of poetry. I often make technique suggestions for getting closer to the heart of honest expression, but there is little I recommend that you don't already employ. Beautifully done.

I do?..lol... I joke... You employ extremely sage and learned advice, that I'm still in my 'infancy' grasping and soaking in. Don't ever think that I wouldn't want your feedback.
Your comments were and are like a balm, Daniel...
I learn and heal.
Thank so much for sharing your remarkably insightful thoughts, I cherish them.

Hee hee hee... that's a nice compliment, my friend,
Ty for sharing that tidbit. 😉
I appreciate you reading and those lines are some of my favorite, as well. I sometimes need reminding not to wallow in yesterday or worry about tomorrow, too much, just my thoughts.
Your visits are a pleasure and leave me smiling, so my gratitude runs deep. ✨

You take the seasonal changes and breezes of spring and make them into a truly unique and creative poem. Today I was thinking of how the breezy days will soon be sweltering. But you did more than write of weather you contemplated all our tomorrows. Love how you put profundity into your verse.

You being in the state of LA and me being in FL we both know that the sweltering of summer isn't far off. I think that was on my mind and possibly just the fleeting amount of the cool, period. (Our winter was extremely mild.) Also, I worry about things to the point that I can't sleep a good night's sleep, at times. That's where the profundity of tomorrow comes from.... just fyi....
Your comments and remarkable insights are a soothe, John. Thank you for the list add and all the love you've shown me tonight!
I'm speechless!

Your motivation is truly a gem 💎. It sounds silly sometimes but I thrive on the very much appreciated feedback and use it as fuel for my fire.... so I really do wholeheartedly thank you for reading, the list add and all your loveliness in commenting! That night still sticks in my mind, because in FL... that probably was it, for the last of our cold spells... for months!... Uggh... lol

I liked this a lot. It's funny but as I get older, I find myself pausing and savoring those moments that I know I may never have again.
It's a wonderful piece Blue.

Thank you for reading, Wally.
I get that instinct that comes with aging, too. It's a shame some things are wasted on youth when we're not so keenly aware... I appreciate your solidarity, there!
Always a pleasure, my lovely friend 🙏🏻

Enjoying the cool breeze after a romp on a hot, humid summer night. A great feeling. Although, me thinks this poem was more a "solo" reflective piece on enjoying the tranquility and the heat relief.
Another well written piece Ms Blue. Reminded me of past "Clarity" moments while trying to cool off on a hot night and hearing the wind and sometimes the crickets. The A/C masks that nowadays.

This was a beautiful and somewhat heartbreaking blast from the past poem to reread. It's comments are so uplifting and beautiful but within them are reminders of those who were here one moment gone the next, which ironically reminds of that beautiful fleeting moment I penned in the poem—how truly apropos.
I love your comments, you're right there, sitting in the moment with me feeling the last vestiges of cool breezes and the willing of one's self to stay present within that given moment; as to not let tomorrow's problems affect today.
Yes, love the night time crickets... feels like youth.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with me, Leo.
It's always a bountiful pleasure
I adore your visits.... and you.
