This is a lovely poem, eerie yet so heartbreaking. I have had phases in life when I have resonated with these feelings.

I liked this one! Very romantic!

Thank you much, Cristy for stopping by and reading! 🙂

Thank you much, Cristy! <3

Nice one!! Loved the lyrical quality of this poem

Very touching poem! I want to cry.

Your wordsmithing in this is excellent, I can smell the coffee, a great example of showing instead of telling!

Oh this is so well sculpted! I’m struck by the line the essence of life is laid out.

I love this one, Cristy, and would love to give a shout out to this poem on the FB page. I’d like to tag you however, and I am not able to find you on the member page.

@britton, I absolutely loved this poem of yours, so deeply touched! I’m going to post this on the FB group so others can also come read this gem!

Thankyou so much!!

I like the form of this poem. And the matter of fact way of narrating something deep like wanting to be safe in the cocoon. Lovely! Thank you!

I absolutely love this haiku! So well executed. The last line opens up a full picture. And sensation. Beautiful!

This is such heartwarming and romantic imagery!

Thank you so much for visiting and commenting, much appreciate it!

I liked this the best of your poems. Love the alliterative rhythm.
I also liked Lux et Veritas, speaking to transformations. Lovely work.

This is a very pretty poem! I love the different descriptions of your muse, and the strong imagery.
My favorite line is ‘Her handbag used to be…’ Lovely!
Is this edited and ready to be sent out? Its just that the last stanza feels different from all the previous ones.
But, I love it overall!

So poignant and powerful! Black milk.
Beautiful!
