Thank you most warmly, Dear DK, for your gracious praise. 🥂
It is so deeply satisfying to please such a talented poetess as yourself.
There’s not a scintilla of doubt you can compose Kyrielles every bit as masterfully (if not moreso) than I ever dreamed of being able to.Give me your best shot … I’ll love it! ⁓ Richard🖌

Ohhh, Dear Lady 🥀
You must keep mindful, waiting at that window ~ whispers light certain kinds of flames, you know.
So sweet, your efulgent encouragements, Adira; surely, a humble bard (such as I) would never expect to outshine those many grateful fellows in your life who’ve come to adore you … I’m sooo pleasantly, sooo sumptuously surprised!
Love your beguiling sense-of-humor, and your most lovely compliment. ; )Thank you ever-so warmly, Adira! ⁓ Richard🖌

I have to tell you, Richard, I feel like I’ve been driven to your castle in horse and carriage, ushered out into a flourishing rose garden, and wisped up into your arms bridal style over the threshold. Take me to your bedroom and the balcony that overlooks your domain. Carry me up the winding staircase and lay me on fresh linens. Strip me naked in your ravishing furry. Take me, Richard… not as a king takes his queen, but as he takes his young mistress during a heated fit of passion inside the dark, hidden chambers where her shrill cries of mating remain dampened. Read me your sonnets when I’m strewn across your bed, obliterated. Let the finches build their nests while you play in mine. Kiss my rose and everything you see. That’s how I’ll know that you love me.

Goodness, DK 😳
Your graciously gorgeous review rivals my Sonnets in its compellingly fervent bliss, in wantoned kiss, for it’s all THIS ‘n more, but that’s what loving’s for … oh-MY!
Loving you’s what poetry was invented for … now, to make it fit the page without burning down the site!🔥
I’ve received reviews, and Reviews; yet, it’s hard to ever recall a REVIEW such as THIS!With a weak-kneed, melted into my socks … grateful thanks, Dear Poetess! ⁓ Rascal🖌

It is so sad that they were trampled on and treated like nothing. Nice

Thanks for reading.
I think millions have been trampled on for some political regime. Every tyrant has an army ready to sweep away the people who defy them.

Oh, there you go, Richard. The Kyrielle volley. I don’t know that I can crank these out like you can! Wow. Very beautiful.
