    An Auburn Aubade

    On the edge of your waking dreams  let me trace the sun rise upon your skin  this could be painting-by-numbers  but my only palette are tongue and fingers    I could lie here through hibernation  turning the dit.com sitcom to fade,  your head resting on my...

    • Very clever wordage here. This is sensual and wry in its humor.

      Love the “lisp broken words”—-

      j.

      • Thank you J. I obviously wasn’t wearing my spectacles last night – it’s meant to be ‘dot.com’ not ‘dit.com’. mixing my vowels!

    • You’ve taken painting by numbers to a most sensual high. I don’t know that any man has ever succumbed to “negligee geography”, but hey, there’s a first time for everything. And what a way to go!

    Curmudgeon   i find poetry quite annoying actually all the stupid metaphors that deepen the themes into quicksand that oozes in my brain until i dip out of sight and the rhymes i could skip rope to but find so mundane my cat could write them   and ballads and odes my lymph nodes cry i...

    • Yeah, there are times when writing feels stagnant, but without it our expressions would never be able to leak through our pens (or typewriters). 🙂

    • Thanks, Tim.

      You are my first review…YaY.

      This seems like a good site. I am trying to upload a pic, but the profile page kicks me out.

      • Yeah, the uploading of a pic takes a bit to figure it out. I’m leaving mine. If you have any questions just ask Fia. She’ll be more than happy to help out.

    • Hello Jacob. Cool piece. Love your honesty & creativity here.

    • Thank you for your kind words, Visions.

    • As ever you find a way of offering a fixated thought or truth and nothing but. Here you have a way of running a contest with self, using your words to create a marvel or dish the dirt on your much used personal alphabet! Read twice, could hear your voice – wondering if you’d allow me a B+ for this review?

    • No, Em. I would not. I think A+ for the very kind words you impart on my writes.
      I am glad we all are finding a new home here.

      • Jacob, it’s quite a while since I added an ‘r’ in the wrong place! How diplomatic and kind you were. You’ve not changed one teeny bit, sir. Yes, already feel comfortable here although need learn more about this and that. We were elsewhere for years, comes time when – perhaps, liberty makes us feel younger although preloved!

    • I wrote to him and politely told him my thoughts: mainly that he might never been trusted again! No rushed response – of course. Have been told that there might collective act against his duplicity and such. Would willingly say what I think. Having been with the site for so many years I can’t even remember how many over a dozen!
      Was such a fine site in the once upon a time, jacob. Why on earth could he not have shared with us. If lack of funds, maybe we might have paid a soupcon of pennies every season?

      To be honest I feel a little lost at the moment. Must admit that this site seems to be pretty darned fine! Still trying to work things out however! Am on the Helpline too, so having to come and go . Began it late so only a few more minutes and I can zzzzzz and smile a yawn!

      Is so good to exchange with a friend, sir. 🙂

    • Music always skips my feet as does your beautiful poetry, my friend.
      j.

    • You can read me like a book, hj furl! Will willingly take your words and wear them as a medal or few! How d’you do!

    • I love the ancient feel to this. A poem with a naughty overtone but almost theatrical too. I like it and the way the words flow like a song.

      • Tim, you’ve left me words that make me smile, there’s nothing better than that, sir; ‘ancient’ I really like – as yet not into the modern but will get there, one day.

    • Nice quiet old worldly charm about this one.💋

    • ‘Ere thrice the sun done salutation to the dawn’ and more. This made my bookshelf and me smile. I’m Welsh first, British second, but we must never forget the language of yore. The quill is mighty.

      • You might well be related to Dylan, your words echo and most certainly never forget the ‘language of yore’. Silence listens to the past and – usually nods in agreement. Thank for visiting.

        • To be candid, Dylan turned his back on his Welshness and so we look to his name sake RS Thomas as our nation laureate. I am so proud to say I am one of the few Welsh writers scribbling in English. My Dad was English. Sorry to bore you.

    • A very beautiful and tender poem, dear Emma! It makes me feel like a full moon night spent in raw wild nature…

    • What a wonderfully worded review, thank you and thank you again. Be happy, my friend.

    • Beautifully penned, Emma. Love the flow and your delivery. Excellent write my friend. Appreciate you.

      Damian

    • My word, this takes one back a bit .. those days of yore were summat else .. weren’t they .. so very nicely poemed. Neville
