    PLEASURE

    The winter sun filtered through the open blinds onto my face when I woke. Smith was gone from the bed. It pleasantly surprised me to feel well-rested — no tension in my back or shoulders for once. I washed...

    PASSION

    He carried me to the left wing of the house. That room was another fusion of spaces: bedroom, office, walk-in wardrobe. It was modest compared to the main chamber — almost stoic. The headboard of a double bed stood...

    • This is so beautiful. So expressive. Welcome to Stars Rite

      • Thank you for your very generous comment, and I sure do appreciate the love here so far… I feel very welcomed. Most of my scribbles aren’t nearly as crafted as this one, but I have a great feeling about this site that that will be just fine.

    • Thank you for reading, and I’m so glad it engaged you.

    • This is one of the most remarkable poems ive had the pleasure of reading. The depth, the imagery…exquisite. Welcome to Stars

      • If I may, I am going to wax poetic (or maybe not exactly poetic) for a bit.
        My first online poetry website I joined in 1996, and stayed there until it closed in 2007. Oh, how I love that place.
        After that I went to a brand new site, which was great, but all the awesome connections, y’know, people disappear over the years, the userbase got so INSANELY big that it didn’t feel like much of a community anymore.
        A dearest friend of mine, M.E., shared a poem he posted here with me, and I poked around a bit, and I was, like, YES, this is the kind of poetry site I remember from all those years ago. I’d just deleted my account at this other place, sick of drama, and with it over 8,000 poems of mine.
        With just this, my VERY first poem here, I feel the love.
        Thank you so much Willow, and the others… I feel like I’ve come home, though it’s to a place I JUST discorved existed.
        I’ve got some thing going on (complicated), but soon I’m very much looking forward to returning the favour of reading and commenting on others work in a place with a small enough userbase that I’ve got a feeling it’s not about “trading likes” or looking for that dopamine hit, but just a love a poetry.
        Thank you for you EXTREMELY generous comments, and your welcome to me. I’m smiling for the first time in quite a while, truly.

    • One thing about you, you’ve got swag. Your confidence drips from every word, and I absolutely love the playful undertone of this. You rode the rhythm, acknowledged your style without getting too explicit. I’m still on the rhythmic flow.

      • Glad you enjoyed, Kay
        It felt good to swing this mood back to the surface….
        Definitely appreciate you droppin in

        Much respect

    • As you know dude we love your word flow and play, this is so tight with the sexy Velma Dinkley. To cool

      • Haha! Velma was a hottie! I liked her better than Daphne
        cuz she was low key with her shit. It be those brainiacs that be the
        sexual maniacs. Big thx for pullin up bro

        Naaj
