Read MoreIntimacy left the bedroom, drifted quietly down the street. Wanting only human closeness, with no intent to cheat. It wandered past the neighbours, took a shortcut through the park. Noticed couples leaning inwards, who had not lost their spark. It walked backed twenty paces, sat beside a nameless...

I love the idea of this, the imagery. The whole gnome part almost, but not quite, adds a whimsy to it. Yet the despair overcomes that brief slide towards “not so bad”. The ending is perfect. The whole write is great stuff.

Awesome. Not everything can be labelled poetry, as we all write our version of it. This definitely is poetry. It is full of great imagery for the reader to feast on. You write such strong, sturdy material. An educated writer through reading and being inspired, I percieve. You got it going on Paulo.

Thank you for the gaze that reads me whole, for naming poetry where I only sowed a pulse. If my images fed you, it’s because your eyes were hungry. We write each other, always for your words now strengthen mine. Big hug!

This is almost a cautionary tale. One never knows how life will go when someone you once imagined as a safe haven and one so desired disappears. Well done, Wally.

Very true Tim. Sometimes unrequited or absent love makes for poetry with depth and longing.
Thank you for reading and commenting.
