    Windmills

    Above the star ceiling  there is an attic which houses   secrets and undeclared love,  decades of wreaths and erections  who told Sinatra to stop singing?    In moon river dreams, my limbs drifted   from pillow to ache within the attic    A heavy breeze from...

    • Clever word play. I especially like the transition:

      “In moon river dreams, my limbs drifted
      from pillow to ache within the attic”

      Excellent write.

    • Thank you Joe. Isn’t it beautiful how music connects the world? Were all looking at the same moon river

    • What a well done, strong write. Poetry is so broad, so I look for what moves me, and makes me nod, with approval.
      This succeeds quite well.

      • Appreciate the continued support Styx. I just enjoy grappling with words and metaphors.

    • Cleverly penned, Ghosteen. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

          • Well, you desire thoughts of wonder and beauty, isn’t that what you give? 🌼

            • I don’t know I just go where I’m led I do my best there is a flow to some of them that is luck you have the artist touch of a musician and a master of words 💕

              • Thank you, Brenda. That was a beautiful compliment – but be careful not to over inflate my ego.too much!🌼

    • And nature is where I find it. 🌼

    • You put a beautiful touch on that wonderful time in-between the seasons, especially Summer to Fall, when the ground has cooled down enough to lay on it again. I’m not trying to get too comfy…there are more scorchers on the horizon. But Fall is the best. Thumbs up ^

      • I hear you, I’m ready to hit some trails without dying of heat stroke! Fall will be here quick enough. Good to have you back around! 🍁

    • You take simplicity and develop stark imagery. I like the easy flow of your work.

      • Thank you. Nature and the beauty of women are the wine of life, to be savored at ease. Sometimes I capture that.

    Born of Frustration

      Beyond the breakers  where the tides never reach,  we watched a small child flying two kites  and you said ‘that could be me and you’    Born still,  midwife's mouth turned to scissors  delivering the cruellest cut    Sometimes, the sun rises in   my bedroom at midnight  the TV...

    • Powerfully penned, Brenda. Your words pulled on these old heartstrings my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

      • thank you dearest Damian for feeling me so deeply on this I appreciate you 💕

    • Your words have a way of slicing below the surface, to the core. The last two lines remind me of the lyrics, “ it’s better to burn out than it is to rust”. Keep shining, my friend.

      I sincerely hope to meet you on the other side!

    • thank you graciously dearest Gus for feeling me so deeply it’s appreciated 💕
