    • I didn’t say you were wrong, punk! The proper name is “Paint Horse”. I agreed! But there are some who call it painted horse too. So perhaps that’s a lesser name or something. I just go by what I research, I don’t judge.LOL.
      You’re saying I’m wrong just to build the drama on a slow night.
      Dont make me bring the BaBoom! on ya!
      Anyway, lover, your write…
      Wonderfully dreamlike, even if in day. That “zone” that we settle in, for creative moments. It’s addictive to want to stay there half a day!
      You described it well. And my dear, we are immortal for as long as we are around! What a blessing!

    • I remember a certain dream you were telling me about today! Pillows were thrown! Hahaha
      Yes, dreams can affect the awake state! I had to post!
      And I am an avid dreamer honey. You know this too 🙂
      Thank you for the snaps on my write!

      But honey you love my drama! Haha
      You are a great sparring partner. It’s kind of addicting.
      Your wit and words, I love it and you:)
      Fixing to call ya in a bit. My iPad is fixing to die!

    • yeah, that dream. And also our last baboom. LOL. Sigh!
      Smooches!

    • This is a good piece. If I can go to bed as well and just fall into a dreamlife. That would be great.

      • Hi Fia!

        Thank you. I’m so happy you enjoyed. I’ve always been curious about dreams. How our brains manage all of it while we are sleeping. Sometimes they feel so real and other times not so much. lol
        It’s a great asset to be in tune with when it comes to writing. At least for me it is.
        Thanks for stopping my Fia:). I’m not posting as much but I’m trying!

    • Beautifully penned, Adel. Excellent write as usual my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • We’re aware of painted horse and through family of riders riding them not just to battle, but to the here after and into the dream realm. Your guardian into and our of the dreamweaver or afterlife. Great pieces lady with lots of imagery, we could see this, tight

      • Hey Meme!

        I just felt like going there in this write. To kind of tap into the other side of sleeping. Dreams are fun. I don’t have many nightmares at all. Mostly weird stuff that makes me laugh when I wake up. Other times it is extraordinary and inspiring. I feel in order to be a writer we must dream. They go hand in hand.

        Thanks for getting this write amigo. Glad you could see it.
        That’s the whole point of writing for me:)

    • This is a fiesta of dreamlife that ascends into cloud realms of loving bliss. I just felt the total joy here that comes as you rest your head to sleep and dream. This is how the best dreams come and you expressed this with great virtuosity. Truly a fabulous poem.

      John

      • Some of my favorite poems come from dreams. I’ve learned to keep a spiral notebook next to me in case something
        Really grabs me and I need to write it down. Dreams have a huge influence on my writing:)
        Thanks for all the positive feedback on my writes amigo:)

    • This is great! You should write more often.

    • Thank you! I’m working on it amigo.
      I got a promotion at work and I don’t have the time as much.

      Thanks for your snaps!!

    • Dear A,

      I love the momentum in this piece. For me it really looks the gratitude and potential of relationships and events that occur during a year in the life. How fast they come and go. Congrats on your promotion! Life to see your writes.
      H x 🌷

      • Hi Honoria!
        There is so much gratitude! This past year I lost my little chihuahua Daisy in November. Right before Thanksgiving. I was a mess. I had her for around 18 years. She was so old and her eyesight was going. Had to give her a little nod in my opening:)
        Mark found a chihuahua Christmas ornament and put it on our tree.

        I’m also looking forward to 2026. All the possibilities!

        I’m so happy to see you here and commenting:)
        Best Christmas gift ever!

    • Hey my little busy Bee! ’25 was such an awesome year for you! Besides Daisy, of course. But your life has so much going on in it. Even getting your book out there in the world! Thank you for sharing it with me. All of my highlights of ’25 involve you!
      This write of yours is so positive and empowering. I love the feeling of determination that is being carried within it. And I’m glad that you got some creative results out of the Taylor movie. I will be more kind when talking about her from now on. LOL
      I’m all about my Adelphina! Woo hoo!

      • Hey there lover!
        This write is all about timing. To be prepared for whatever comes your way. To handle it gracefully or at least the best you can. To not cower which is hard for me. I’m brave with a pen but sometimes not always in real life! lol
        You have been my highlight for the past 3 years!
        And yes, the documentary from Taylor swifts last tour is very inspiring. I didn’t realize how massive her show was.
        I just remember how expensive the tickets were.
        I’ll only spend that much on a purse, maybe!

        Thanks for your awesomeness in 2025!
        MWA!

    • Beautifully penned, Adel. An excellent write my friend. Merry Christmas to you and Mark, hope all is well with you both. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Hi Damien!
        Thank you for your snaps amigo!
        2025 is right around the corner. I’ve had so many changes and transitions this year.
        All positive but I’m slow to embrace change. I’ll get there just don’t rush me. Hahaha

        Hope you had a Merry Christmas:)

    • Love this, great to see you writing Lady

      • Thanks Meme!

        I’m working on it. Just need to get in that writing zone. I know you understand. The need to feel that inspiration in order to pick up that pen! Sometimes it evades me.

        Now I gotta catch the last season of Stranger Things!
        Fixing to get on Netflix! Woop Woop! Hahaha

        Thanks for not being a stranger buddy!

    • The beginning of each new year is another reset of our aspirations. We have a chance to start anew with hopes for a better year, a more productive year as long as we persist in our endeavors. I hope yours is all that and more Adelly. Best wishes to you. 🙂

      • Hi Tim!
        Happy New Year amigo! Thank goodness for resets. I don’t know anyone who didn’t need one.
        Whether it is about losing weight or finding love or being prosperous.
        In some way we bargain with our future every new year.
        We make decisions with hope in mind. It’s very cosmic in some way.
        Hoping all our stars will align like paths.

        Best wishes to you too buddy!

    • This reads like a prayer and a dare at the same time. I love how 2026 is treated as a living witness—something you’re negotiating with, not wishing on. The imagery of ink, doors, courage, and the red carpet earned through work (not luck) feels honest and earned. There’s vulnerability here, but also resolve. It doesn’t beg the future—it challenges it.

      • I love this comment!
        Yes, I didn’t want this to come across like I was begging for a great year.
        We come across challenges every year. It’s inevitable. I want to go into the new year courageously, come what may.
        This year I think 2026 or every new year for that matter as a quest. A year long quest. It will either break me or make me stronger. I’m an optimist. So either way each year makes me grow:)

        Happy New Year!

    • You brought in the New Year with pizazz my friend. This was a great fiesta of a poem. One that made my heart dance like raindrops on a banana plant leaf. I could feel the exuberant hopes encapsulated in your poem.

      John

    • Hi John,

      I love the idea of a blank new year. Nothing has happened yet, but oh the possibilities it can bring:)
      Happy belated New Year my friend.

    • Such lava!
      The artwork is incredible! The write of course is so your style of unique phrasing. Clever wording to go with the picture, well, vice versa. Your talent is showing!

    • Wow… I really like this Adelphina.
      It’s like you picked me up at the start and wasn’t going to put me down untill I finished it. And I’m glad you did. Amazing.

      • I’m glad you enjoyed! The whole reason artists make art is to move people.
        Whether through words, art, or music. I’m glad to have payed it forward since you do the same for us here
        on the site:). Thank you for stopping by!

    • Very good… the art … the words … everything you do is very good as usual

      • Hi Sam!
        Thank you for that. Means a lot, seriously:)
        I started taking digital art classes last year and this one was extra special to me so I thought I’d share.
        Venturing into uncharted territory has its benefits!

        Thanks again!

    • beautiful word choices and artwork lovely Adelphina ❤️

      • Hello lovely:)

        I’m so happy you enjoyed. Made my evening seeing you on my page chica!
        It’s been an amazing experience learning new ways to express myself.
        Thank you for stopping by!

    • Powerfully penned, Adel. Excellent write my friend and the artwork compliments it nicely. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • Damien, amigo! Thank you!
        This was an extra special write because it was such a sad historical event.
        The remnants are still here for everyone to view. Not sure how I feel about that.
        Having other peoples pain on display. Just feels like such an intrusion.

        But you know what is pretty cool to display, your rocking avatar’s hair!! Hahaha
        Had to lighten up this comment, I meant no offense:)

    • The poetry & artwork gel so wonderfully here. Marvelously written Adelphina.

      • Hey there! Poetry and artwork is my new jam!
        Now it’s all I think about. lol
        What would be something cool to make to accompany my poem!
        I brainstorm to get ideas then get started.
        Takes longer but I don’t mind.

        Thanks for stopping by
        I’m super happy you enjoyed!

    • I’ve seen the frozen bodies of Pompeii. he families that died together in their homes. I’m sure they would have been happy to have wings to fly away on. Great poem of butterflies and great art work, Adel. 🙂

      • Hey Tim!

        Hey, I’m Adelly to you mister! Where did she go? Hahah
        With all the suffering that happened I wanted to make this poem bittersweet.
        And I kept having these visions of moths flying around. Some are huge, as big as your hand!
        Off my mind went and this is what I came up with. After I finished drawing my first moth, I felt like a proud mama! lol
        I’m glad you enjoyed!

        Thanks for stopping by!

    • Powerful imagery. Superb work.

    • Hi Thomas.
      Thank you! I’m so happy you enjoyed:)

    • There’s absolutely nothing about this whole page that isn’t magical and I love it so ..

      p.s. I’ve been to Pompeii several times and understand entirely where you & those moths are coming from .. 😎🦋🦋👍

      • Hi Nev,
        Thank you for that. Means a lot amigo. I can’t even imagine how it must have felt like, being there in person.
        The fact that their remains are still in tact and have not broken down is astounding to me.

        Thank you for stopping by!

    • You a more than welcome .. my pleasure entirely .. 😎

    • This is pure art in motion. I could just lose myself in the beauty of your poem. I was mesmerized by the impressionist wonder within your poem. A real gem to read tonight.

      John

      • Hi John,

        Thank you for that. Love the words impressionist wonder. With this piece I wanted to give some light even when everything feels so helpless. I’m happy you enjoyed the read.

        Thanks for stopping by!
