    Fish Fingers

    I wonder, after all these years,If she still considers herself luckyTo have landed a fishOf such colour and tenacity.Or,Does she now only seeFaded beautySans scales, sans colour, sans vitalityYet still attached to her hook?I ask myself the same questions...

    .Thunder and Lightning

      Thunder and Lightning    Fateblack clouds over my life's tristesse Monotomy frustration and loneliness Silence hangs oppressive in the air Turning my suffering into despair Nature holds its breath, it's getting dark No bird sings, no wolf howls, no dog barks It's calm as in the beginning...

    • Well that’s simply beautiful.
      💋

    • Beyond being so very literate, this poem simply glows with passion and gratitude. It gives me hope in humanity that such a person as you lives on the same beloved Earth as I. I feel very glad that you have experienced this and that I have at least a remote connection to your very special being, dear Elke. Warmly, Jim

      • Your warm words make me blush, dear Jim! I am just an ordinary person like anyone else. We all belong to the human species. We were born on this planet in different appearance and with different attitudes. We should support one another instead of bringing us down and fighting us. Thanks a lot for your gracious comment!

    • There is a universe of emotion packed into this poem. When connection is made, miles mean nothing. Beautiful, Elke

      • My deepest gratitude for your kind comment, dear Willow! A soul connection doesn’t depend on time or distance.

    • Beautifully penned, Elke. Excellent write with such an honest message my friend. What a lovely tribute. Appreciate you.

    • Chère E.,
      Hope you’ll enjoy your weekend.

      As for your beautiful poem, I’m with Jim M. Your truly felt (feld?) emotions shine through in every sentence!
      A stellar write!
      Keep them coming please!

      I’ll be back tomorrow for another eyeful of beauty.
      Warm regards, Gus

    • Oh, Sam, ewww! How could you! Didn’t you even think to include the delightful octopussy? Talk about a hand job! Wowzer!

    • Thanks. Noooo, Swabby Sam wasn’t drunk enough to risk his gooey duck with no octopussy!

    Exhaustion

    One moment you are concious.The next half awake.One moment you are walking. The next you are in a lake.It feels like an endless loop.Of fatigue,exhaustion. As I watch the flowers grow.My eyelids slowly begin to fall.Because I spent my whole day...

    Thief

    You are a thief With innocence written across the face   You stole each heartbeat The rapid and steady   You stole each breath. The labored and the rapid   You stole time Slipping away as I gaze upon you   As thieves go You are one of the best Not realizing you...
