words
filter through
as breaths
sighs
reflecting a heart

souls
caress
the stars
like a
trail of fire
across the sky

love's magic
twinkles

unoticed

till.....

its vibrancy
tingles
as a melody
that never
leaves
your head

our mysteries
found together
long forgoþen
remnants
ignited
allowing

an ache.....


to quiten

"Allowing an ache to quiet" is such a profound and delicious notion, Colin.

So many meanings and different connotations...
Your poetic voice and in the moment off the cuff poem-ply really lends to some further soul searching and pondering on my end... Which you know that I do enjoy. Thanks so much for your creative ideas and thoughts upon my page... it's a true joy, dear friend 🙏🏻

All my warmest appreciation and much love from across the pond ✨ 🌊 ✨

It's a lovely poem
With a lovely layout
It reminds me of
First true love
When the heart soars
No feeling quite like this
With bated breath
Each spoken word
Eternitys prisoner
To be lovingly remembered
Keeping the hearts
Fire burning bright
Each new day brings
Hope for more
Endearing words of love
So that they
Too are cherished and loved
These words I write
Is how I perceive your
Deliciousness of vocabulary

Excellent and delicious my dear Blue
💜💜💜

I love and adore reading where my words were able to take your thoughts, WM. It's truly affirming and so beautiful to process. Sincerely!! I'm totally stoked and extremely grateful, my friend 🙏🏻

It's a lovely pleasure ✨

All my warmest regards and deep appreciation,

I love your writing style and words as if they hush out of your heart and surprise you at the end.

Hey there, KS ;)
I'm all smiles that you feel some pleasure from my poetry. It's a joy to know that you find it surprising as well.... What a wonderful treat and fantastic compliment.... The tenderness that I hoped to convey in these three little installments I think might have been part of that hushed quality you speak of..... ;)
I'm glad you caught it!

My deep appreciation for leaving your thoughts - 🙏🏻

One of the things I love about your poetry is how you experiment… try new things… vary your themes… not a one poem poet… I usually prefer left justification… but you use centering so effectively… using line length and line breaks to speed up and slow down the cadence… I have enjoyed watching you grow in your writing…

You made me so proud and fully illuminated in a warm glow, even as I battle this horrible winter cold that I have. (I've tested myself twice for covid, it's negative, thankfully!) You're probably one of the only ones left that has really been there, supporting, encouraging and allowing me to learn from your exquisite pen. I am so so fortunate that you can see growth and progression because of that... and that it brings you some enjoyment.  
 
It's been a pleasure ✨ every step of the way, LilD  
I hope I can continue to explore and evolve. I still feel like I've barely skimmed the surface... lol.  
 
Your feedback.... means so so much, a zillion thank you's.... ;)

A described romance carrying out reorientation.
... 😍👍

Hey there, Marks ;)
It's a trifecta of tender moments that direct a reader's attention to different avenues, indeed...


You have a knack for summation!!
It's always a pleasure to see you 🦋 I hope you are doing well, dear poet

Be well and be safe out there,

You're welcome, Bluevelvete.

haha... Your last line here made me belly laugh... thanks for that!... 😁

I do cherish every. single. point. of. contact. I reply in earnest kindness and honest openness, when commenting. It's as amazing to me as it probably is to you!! I am completely aware that type of response could end with the very next poem I decide to publish....and that's, aok, too. I can only control my own actions and my deep want of honest and truly interesting, informative interactions amongst others.... That's what brings me joy, along with growth and progression....

Hopefully there are still opportunities for all of that, going forward!
🌹 - B

That reminds me so much of me...musings around the heart...you're so talented dear Blue 🌹

Awww... To be compare to you is such an amazing compliment, in my opinion!! You really made my day with your extremely kind thoughts!! I'm so very glad you found similar heartfelt connection here, Grace!!

I like the format! Love the upside down exclamation points as Roman numerals. Classy touch. I dig it the most.  
 
To riff on a New York Dolls song, better a bunch of muses tumbling 'round your head than a friend of a friend of a friend of a friend staring back at you in the mirror! (Personality Crises.) Well done 😀!

Ohh Em!
Thanks so much for visiting and for the generosity of sharing your thoughts with me!! I am stoked you enjoyed the format, oh how I love playing around there.... ;)  These little 'poem-nuggets' are such great opportunities to push ideas of how poems are supposed to look /feel... I hoped it would work and not be too much of a convoluted clusterfuck.... ha!!!... Cuz, I just never know!

You always seem to know that I have such an affinity for that era of music - early glam /punk ... I was just listening to the stooges earlier... lol..I have a weirdo thing for David Johansen!!... lmao.... I'm just drawn to him! 😂

Terrific quote and so apropos.

I dig seeing you on my page... 🦋
Much love sent your way

From the companion artwork to the piece itself, there is such an elegance and sophistication,
which interacts with the mind in caresses of graceful things.

...  And how you pull from the aether, implementations, in the form of
unconventional poetic applications, in order to bring to life your ideas, and shine in the mind of the reader, in different forms of movement...

That is very much...  Such a high form of brilliance.  

Oh...  And killer title.

(You know...  It was actually earlier today.  I was just...  Thinking about
how grateful I am to interact with your energies and how much they have made me think and expand my perception.)

Your absolutely otherworldly comments leave me buzzing and truly breathless!!

You're also such a lightning rod of enormous creative force for me, dear Cipher! I find that you can stimulate that area of my brain in the very best of ways!!.... How extraordinary and special!

I'm all Cheshire Cat smile, with your ref to a good title.... You know that's my total 'thing'... I am soooo excited that you found it killer!! Yesssss!! 👍🏻

To be able to have any impact as a writer is a total dream, but to shine in the mind of a reader!!? ✨.... Has me completely gobsmacked, humbled and left awe struck.... Just incredible! 😲

All my warmest gratitude and thanks, my dear friend,

one of the best poetries I've read in a while




*hat tip*

Whoa .. I'm a tad overwhelmed, as your thoughts are especially hallmarked in my mind as a particular kind of cherished... Now, is where I would usually drone on, in a way way WAY too long of a reply. So I'll kindly spare you and leave you the knowledge that your lovely words have echoed profound joy deep within and all throughout. Making a lady who's always prone to severe second guessing and questioning herself, feel truly and completely successful....

Needless to say , I'm beyond thankful.

Dear BV,

This poem is pretty.
I know I’m a little more long winded than this but I kept trolling my thoughts Rolodex and pretty just kept coming back. I very much like the format. Job well done. And the words are pretty. Now I’ve said it three times. Now this looks like a lot of words😊.
Seriously, “pretty” great poem. 😄
H🌷

Hey there, Honoria :)

I'll take "pretty" all day long! It's a word (I'm completely sincere, now... ) that I never heard myself, growing up or even that much as an adult, so I take it to heart and I'm totally ok with you repeating as many times as needed... lol...Har Har!

I'm delighted you found some prettiness here.

It's a lovely sentiment, (with just the right amount of words! 👌🏻) dear lady and I deeply thank you for it....

Okay, I'm exhausted from scrolling down the comments 😜
I love the first stanza and "petals to petals" is sensual dynamite 💥💥💥💥 Lady Blue, your writing makes me happy and comforts me with its warm caress.🐻💞🐰

Hee hee hee... ohh c'mon! .... (blushes)
My goodness....how I do so love warm caressing with my words.... deeply penetrating, mind body and souls.... strong enough to feel so very good but tender enough to melt the harshest of hearts 💕..... *wink

I'm so glad you enjoyed, dearest BB!!!
I miss you, your visits and encouragements, everyday.....

Be well and safe.... I'm thinking of you!
