Mysterious. I love it. And good luck in the comp. Kisses, Robert.        PS:  all entries rather superb. I will then let the public decide...........

Love keeping the mystery of it.... glad you felt it.
Will do... thanks for hosting!
🌹💙

Edgy. Good luck (I avoid comps like the plague) 🌼

I usually do too, but I like supporting the brave folks who host the competitions when there's an intriguing theme! Plus, it kind of challenges me to write outside my comfort zone, which I think forces me to be imaginative from a place I don't usually access... are my thoughts.

Thank you for the kind words of affirmation and well wishes. Glad you felt the edginess! Yessss!

Always a pleasure to see you, J

My problem is my thoughts and poetry don't usually align. I just appreciate people like you, who can make those connections.  😉😁

The pleasure's always mine, S. 🌼🌹

Very interesting 🤔 I like it 💪👍👊

Just like that
pink daisy sways
from a bumble
who buzzes a while
then disappears.

flying through the thicket, high
where bluebells sway and daisies sigh
buzz boundless hope with careful eye
and just like that— new blooms are nigh

Hoi hoi
I’m with Her.
Many ways to look at it.
Blue in full bloom.

And I love it.
If DUP doesn’t offer an ‘I love it to bits’ button, there wil be repercussions.
So the ‘Like this poem’ button will have to do.
Kind regards, Gus

Hoi hoi

Yessss.... The mind spins about with all the dark possibilities, methinks!!

Awww... I love it when you catch me in full technicolor!

That's what I was aiming for... Very specific dark ambiguity... lol... I'm so stoked that you felt it that way, James.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and for being here... I love love love seeing you!

This maybe the best piece that we've read in some time. You stepped out of comfort zone with the rhyming and we love that, challenge yourself always. Some will like this and relate while some wont, as with any piece. But this can be applied to so many things from life and it's struggles, dark erotica, mental health, yeah. Tight work Lady

Wow, Me!
These particular perceptions of yours hit hard and profound. You really experienced what I had hoped would be the main feeling, which is the poem's ambiguity. One person can read it and feel from it one thing and another reads it and can feel something different; and that's it! That's what I wanted to create and hoped to convey. I know where my mind goes to, which is this dark, regretful and painful reality where nothing else exists within a forever moment of hurt and unfathomable loss.  

Thank you for being here and for such amazingly cool and stellar feedback. I'm honored you found this piece was something worthy of being the best thing you've recently read! ...I mean, how freaking awesome is that!?!?... Very!  

I'm humbled and send out my warmest appreciation,

hahaha... I originally wrote it on the actual comp itself, then someone asked me to publish it, so I did...

Well, my track record of winning comps is low, which is fine... I like to use the comps to broaden my horizons, when it comes to theme or style... I get stale feeling like I write about the same shit all the time...

So thanks for digging this one, T
that's a win itself!!
🌹💙

you must be my lucky charm... I ending up with the win...a total surprise to me...

Thank you for seeing what you see.

It reads like the start of a horror movie without giving away too much and now we're intrigued.
Congrats on the win.

Interesting write – leaves many open interpretations to the reader on what is occurring before the call, and what changes after.

My initial thought after 1st read was the person was stressing over an expectation (Such as a work deadline), then after the call a “life event” takes precedence making the pre-call stress appear trivial. You realize what had occupied your mind before the call was not really of importance.

The other thought I had after a few more reads, was the person is trying to save a relationship, and the call ends it. I’m sure the more I read it, other possibilities would surface.

You continue to intrigue with your writing; life isn’t black and white.

Thanks for finding the various potential for intent and the vast possibilities that our individual limaginations can take us....

It's an absolutely lovely pleasure to have you visit, my dear Leo. I haven't had a lot of time to write or to be on site, so I'm grateful to see you and read your thoughts.

This was a comp piece that sparked my own imagination, so I'm delighted you felt it's gravity.

Miss you and hope you are doing well.... 💋 💋 💋
