    The Mahogany Door

    The shore hummed with strangers,voices rippling like wind across sand,though I did not know why I had come.The sea called to me,its familiar pull thrumming in my chest.I slipped beneath the surface,cold silk folding around my skin.A great white...

    • Your poetry always caresses the senses with a surrealistic hug. Nice one. 🙂

      • Relic, is this you? Hi. I remember your name is Tim. It’s been so long. You’re one of the first poets I met when I joined WC. Tim, thank you for your kind words. Coming from you, that means a lot, as your own work is masterful at creating those sensory dreamscapes.

    • Blimey Roma, I lie less than a mile from the sea and yet these words resonate louder than the incoming midnight tide. You are a mistress of the moon and sea – always leave that mahogany door open.

      • Thank you so much! “Mistress of the Moon and Sea” is high praise -I think I’ll claim that title! I also still love your description of the blood moon as “slut red.” I’m truly glad the words resonated louder than your midnight tide. And I promise, I’ll leave that mahogany door open for you.

    • Beautifully penned, Roma. Your imagery is so precise it immediately grabs my attention. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

    • ‘Then I awoke,
      carrying the weight of water,
      of memory,
      of starlight,

      bridging the world of the living
      with the world I had entered.’

      Your words have a sadness from core to display; I had to read them three times because at the first try I sighed, had to catch my breath; tragedy seemed to come from somewhere far, far out of reach. Such emotional words, could be real, true.

    • Hi emmagreen. Thank you so much for such a thoughtful response. 🌙 Your words mean a lot…I wrote this piece with that very sense of distance and weight in mind, like grief and memory carried from another realm. I’m touched it resonated with you.

    A Dream Of Light and Unlocking

    In the nighta half-light came -bearing offerings:some kissed by fire,others raw,still waiting for flame.She placed them before meand slipped awayinto another chamber.The door swallowed her -but when I touched itthe lock surrendered.The scene dissolved.Young ones appeared,long shadowed by confusion.We...

    • Yikes. The ambivalence of this is where good literature should lead one. Your typing fingers fall as effortlessly as snow onto the keyboard.

      • Thank you so much, Ghosteen. I’m glad the poem gave you that sense of ambivalence; that’s exactly what I was hoping to convey. You have a beautiful way with words, and I truly appreciate your insight.

    • A surrealistic journey of assurance and faith. I like it.

      • Thank you, Tim. I can’t think of a better way to put it. “A surrealistic journey of assurance and faith” truly captures the feeling I had when I wrote it. I’m glad that came through.

    • hello dearest poet I love the message you received it is beautifully written ❤️

      • Dearest Crimsin,

        Thank you. That’s very kind of you to say. I do feel the message in this dream so strongly. It brought a lot of comfort, especially since it touched on something that had been troubling me for a while.

        ​It’s a powerful feeling to know there’s a force or even a divine intervention that will be our advocate, even if we’re not there to witness it.

    • Beautifully penned, Roma. Incredible write my friend. Appreciate you.

      • Thank you so much, Damian. I really appreciate you taking the time to read it and for your kind words. It means a lot.

    • Thank you so much, Jim. “Sweet Sisters” means everything, as the poem is indeed rooted in the unseen bonds and protective love between us.

      I’m truly happy to hear it resonates with so many readers. I think at its core, the message of trusting your inner-light is something we all need to carry. I appreciate your kind words!

    • Trippy, peaceful, cosmic. A magical journey here. Nicely executed.

      • ​I appreciate that! This poem began as a strange, trippy dream that stuck with me, so I’m glad it translated into a magical journey for you. It was a release to write it, and I ultimately found meaning and comfort in it -a message about trusting our inner-light and finding peace.
