    To The Point

    Not really sure how to feel about it. There's something moving in the air. I hear it like a syncophant song, wondering if I do or dare.   Accusatory words written in code still crush the heart of the strong. If you're the one being bowed...

    • Powerfully penned, Alexandria. Excellent write my friend, love the layers in this. Appreciate you.

    • Brava! That last stanza blew my mind!

    • This screams with such a powerful quiet strength and says so much with a surprisingly few amount of words.

    • Always remember. It takes strength to be gentle and kind.

    • More please! I understand this well. Slight empath – had to be able to read a room to survive. I can feel the hate and the love and ALWAYS know when to leave.

    • This poem makes me think of several things at once. A relationship in which one partner tries to dominate. The other wants an equal split or a literal split.
      In a house, the rule has to be balanced. A back and forth, not all take and no give.

      But this also can relate to the current political situation. The one seeking power and crush all in his way. We don’t want to be ruled like that from that house, either.
      This is good stuff…Opening the doors to varied interpretations allows readers to see what they will for themselves. And that is good poetry.

      Fear not
      You’ll know when it’s right
      Ok ?

    • Chère A.,
      Hope this finds you well?!

      Over here it is 7 in the morning and I played our coop on earphones.
      We’re trekking again.

      This beautiful poem of your slipped through the cracks. I’m really sorry for that.

      Cause I remembered your remark of you being on StarsRite too.
      I was brought up with the ‘if a girl says no, she means no’ principle. So, if you want to write only one poem, I have to settle for that.

      But I hope that I can lure you to write a poem again!

      Our coop drew 4.685 listeners* so far, so may I hope for another one? In NL*
      Anyway, I wish you a beautiful Sunday.
      Warm regards, Gus

    I wish I spend all my life wearing your socks...

        I wish to spend this life in your socks,threaded in the warmth of your quiet steps. Not borrowed, belonged. Not worn, woven.Each fiber remembers the roads you've touched, soft echoes of you beneath my soles, a hush of love...

    So it Shall Be

    When a calm sky turns grey And a whispered wind cuts When the peace you need to stay But vanishes like dust   Every beauty on a rose Is kissed with lust The roots never grow Past the decayed crust   Word sung in a resounding hymn Played with notes  Eco'd...

    Nightingale

    At nightThe voice of a nightingale could be heard.A faraway!A melancholic chord.

    • Those thoughts run through a lot of women’s minds. I hope this is just a poem and you are not going through this.
