    • “before my daily rebirth” I dug that line because the rest we get (sometimes) refreshes us, although for some more than others, it’s likely the last time. It reminds me that I have to be thankful for every day I get and try to make the best of it.
      Nicely done.

    • I turned 78 today, so I hear you loud and clear. Each night, one wonders if dawn, or something else, or nothing at all will come. We get one of them, but not our choice.

    • Hola! I wondered when you’d share more of your talent! Seems life is good with you Amiga 🌼

      • Dude!! I just finished my book. Every poem has an accompanied piece of art! It’s titled Poetry Stained Teeth!
        It’s on Amazon!! But to get a printed copy you need to go to Book Baby. It’s who I went through to self publish!!
        This is one page of my book! It’s what I’ve been working on all year. Phew. I’m starting my second one!

        Thanks for checking this out !!

    • This is a beautiful take on playing the piano.

      • Thanks Fia!

        Especially for helping me with posting!
        This is another older one from back in DUP days and kind of flirting with Mark. hahaha
        It was before we decided to meet. He would always comment and kind of tip toe flirt!
        Where I on the other hand was a bit more aggressive. Lol

        Thanks for the awesome comment!!

    • Beautifully penned, Adel. Into the book it belongs! You know how much I love poems that highlight music, excellent write my friend. The art compliments the write nicely. Great to see you posting again. Appreciate you.

    • Hello Crims!
      I like the old-timey vibe of this. I wish there was more along this type actually. It just seems to set a nice tone when reading. Like those before us perhaps. At any rate, this is a wonderful poem that you’ve presented for us.

      • hello dearest Styxian good evening I’m happy the language of this write spoke to you it was how it presented itself the poem I mean thank you so much for letting me know ❤️

    • Hey crimson!

      The last line is a dark but beautiful visual. It gives me a Celtic vibe.
      It starts off with wonderful bits of love then changes tone.
      I love the word pairing of sweeping crimson. It’s like a red wave of devotion.

      Love your stuff chica:)

      • hello beautiful Adelphina good morning thank you graciously for such a lovely comment❤️

    • hello lovely poetess thank you graciously ❤️

    • Beautifully penned, Brenda. Amazing write my friend. Appreciate you.

    • Oh, it is all so true! In some universe somewhere inside his head, maybe. I think the people in there will deal with him in a very harsh way. Can’t you see the signs? He is slipping away — just not fast enough.
