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!!

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!

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

Love this, great to see you writing Lady

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. 🙂

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.

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.

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.

Del

Merry Christmas dearest Tim I will miss you until then ❤️

Merry Christmas Tim and have a wonderful New Year

You better get back in here! You’re missed!

Merry Christmas, Tim. You’re missed my friend. Appreciate you.

Damian

I miss you my friend. Looking forward to reading more of your great writing next year.

John

Merry Christmas Tim!🎄
See ya next year amigo!

Thanks, Adelly. Same here. 🙂

So this is your song if only…I like it.

A song played on a radio, as a teen-aged girl dreams of that secret crush she has. I’m sure that this lyrical gem has been played for so many young women, and men. It’s called a crush because thats what it feels like in our chests, huh!

Beautifully penned, Fia. Excellent write my friend. I really like this a lot. Appreciate you, cuz.

Chère F.,
Every time I discover more reasons to love your write to bits.
And this is also such an event.
At the end of your poem, you offer a possibility to choose. Simply wonderful, but it reminds me of a song I once wrote. A long long time ago. And its title is Bevrijdingsdag. Translated: liberation day. I wouldn’t write a song with such a title today, but that’s another story.

The chorus of the song is forceful and perhaps a bit extreme. It translates like this:

You said ‘Married’ – and I said so what
I’d love to choose if I may
Don’t talk to me about divorce
Everyday’s liberation day

And then I asked the public:
You’ve heard it. She said ‘married’. But didn’t say who is married, so it’s up to you to choose.
– is he married
– is she married
– are they both married, but not to each other

Raise your hands!

And I would let the public decide. And I would have three songs ready to fit the decision.
A situation, prone to personal ‘colouring’. My personal colouring that is. I’m not On a stage for nothing.

Yes, a bit of a long reply. But maybe an idea 💡 for if and when you’re going to do some beat poetry. The public will love you all the more for this kind of surprises. Really.
I’m a huge fan of open mic evenings; maybe I can transfer some of the excitement to you.
Other than that: keep them coming, please.

Warm regards, Gus

Very nice indeed ma’am .. Neville 😎🌻👍

Passionately penned, Fia. Damn, the room got hot. This one is fire my friend. Appreciate you, cuz.

Damian

Sizzling piece Fia. Well written and scorching hot. xo

amazingly penned, a tantalizing, fiery read. that’s sensually engaging.

Like this sexiness Lady, we agree that a great piece of writing can stir the loins. Tight work

This feels raw and self-aware, especially in how it explores the act of reading as intimacy. There’s a lot of honesty here.

This is some sexy voyeurism you got going on here, Fia
Steamy hot!!

Thanks for the information, Fia. Is that spam right above my comment? Appreciate you, cuz.

Damian

Great info. Thanks Fia.

Good to know:).
Thanks for being transparent and letting us know what the process is.
