hello beautiful Fia this was so beautifully moving my eyes teared 💕

I played piano for years but got bored with it being I had no band to play with. Your words here show a timid and shy player developing into a professional with music in their soul. Music moves people. It should be learned by everyone.

Great write. Emotionally driven. Well done!

Beautifully penned, Fia. Into the book it belongs! You know I love writes that involve music my friend. Excellent work. Appreciate you.

I always envied people who could play the piano. I had a friend who played classical by memory & it blew my mind. I only ever had voice. Lovely walk through the keys here

This is a very unique vibe, Fia. I like it a lot.

Much respect

The piano is a beautiful instrument. It has the power to move people to joy and tears.

I enjoyed this poem.

The last line made me smile. Guitar is my instrument, but I know how overwhelming it can be to learn an instrument. Playing one a little might not be too hard, but playing it well is far, far harder. Nice work, my friend.

I sincerely wish the bookmark worked for me, but try as I might it doesn’t. This will be permanently bookmarked in my mind though

hello dearest Benny I guess I love our terrible creator because he is terrible like me of me like him…he never leaves me alone though the godly people abandones me right away… you can only do your best and life isn’t a fairy tale I get it with the memories 💕 great write…

I wouldn’t mind if we did away with platitudes altogether. It’s entirely too easy for people to quote one of them at you without really thinking of any sort of meaningful response that might better fit the situation.

“Love & light” or “positive vibes only” also come to mind. Toxic positivity is a real issue….people have to be able to grieve, to get frustrated and angry and complain on occasion. These are unpleasant things that all humans must experience.

One of my least favorite to hear is “be yourself”, which too often means “confirm my biased opinions of you”.

Aww, to have that smell linger in your mind. Good write

Powerfully penned, Thomas. Being an alcoholic has levels and rabbit holes, only problem is trying to navigate through the quicksand that one is slowly sinking in. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

I never had a desire to drink but my mother did. I guess some people are prone to addictions then others. This is a gritty down and out poem, but always interesting when coming from your pen, Thomas.

Real, raw, treacherous, daring. Awesome!! Love this piece!

Thank you, Tim.

Thank heaven for that marriage between the sun and that trash .. Write on brother .. Neville 😎👍

Thanks, my friend.

I love watching a good storm roll in but I have never fully subscribed to the “go try and spot the tornado” mentality. I have too much respect for those storms to want to watch that happen in real time. I’ll settle for seeing that through my cameras.
Right before a thunderstorm starts though and the wind is picking up. That’s ideal to stand in the middle of.

Powerfully penned, Willow. Storm watching huh? I can’t remember the last time I did that. lol. Excellent write my friend, glad you’re ok, nature does know how to put on a show. Appreciate you.

Damian

Tremendous work. Vivid and sharp.

We get the occasional blizzard too. Though nothing like you northerners get. Mostly we get icicles on our ass, & wild thunderstorms. They’re speculating we caught the trailing edge of a tornado this time. Lucky, we were very lucky. Thanks girl

A good write! I loved your moon analogy. “)

When we’re linked to the moon’s tides…it can get overwhelming. I’m a full-on moon child myself, I get it

I loved how visual this was, but also in a very subtle way. I could see the sort of waxing and waning pattern but at the same time we weren’t talking about a literal moon, so it was a weird kind of take this very visual thing and make it into a feeling. And then it’s all wrapped up in really beautiful language.

The other morning, I was in a very sexual dream. it was intense! And then my alarm went off and scared the absolute hell outta me. Talk about a rip-off!
Your words reminded me of my own misfortune. LOL
I hope that there is success from your dilemma soon!

An excellent metaphorical take, Fia. Love it.

Beautifully penned, Fia. Into the book it belongs! Amazing write my friend. Appreciate you.

The ebb and flow of the man/woman dynamic.

I digs this
