the time has
come in my life

when the tides
have slowed down
when beauty finally
a true sight.

This week, I'm going to post my work from a fun writing prompt I did. The prompt was to write a paragraph without using a specific vowel. The paragraphs were supposed to be cogent and set a scene. I'll post my paragraph without the letter A later today!

#writingprompts ##WritersOfBlueSky

well I've started to lean myself on becoming apolitical...so with purely a writing lens, I got to connect with alot of amazing people via Bsky! you being one of them.

I am a poor man
all I have
are words to give you.

Or maybe
I am a rich man,
for I have
words to give you.

#Creative #Prompt for #Art #Photography #Writing

Beautiful work!

One day
there will be a book.

No names,
no dates
only the way
love sounded
when we were alive.

Strangers will turn pages,
not knowing
who you were,
or who I became
when I loved you.

They will underline a line,
carry a stanza home,
feel something
they cannot place.

I am enough.
Not chosen.
Not finished.
Still whole.

A toll rings through the streets, Of dead, and soulless bells This merry season greets With overladen shelves What once promoted kindness Now reeks of rotting greed With shrill shrieks to remind us Of how much more we 'need' That bigger, better party, Will bring bigger better joy And nought could be more hearty Than a bigger better toy Look not towards the wayside Where dead lie peace, and health, But toil hard to provide Your overlords with wealth Where once there stood a stronghold Of goodwill, hope, and rest A hearth, whose embers now grow cold In poverty and stress.

Inspired to write again after this unplanned hiatus of end of year burnout by the new #FaeSense prompt.

Maybe not the most joyful piece, but then again, toll is often used in a more sinister sense.

This is

Merry Capitalistmas

If only I could #fight.
This mirror of lies
reality, an unknown facade.

#overwhelmed strings
hold the #puppet’s dance.

#homesick, I lay
#succulent dreams
cover my eyes.

#epiphany:
it was all a charade,
a facade.

It is indeed hard to follow! But we learn in that too.

thanks :)

#reflections
of a #bleak morning
a #blackbird lifts,
#precursor to a day
I thought would be #regret.

but work steadies the hands,
#productive in small motions,
until something loosens.

by dusk,
I am #liberated
from the weight
I carried all along.

#Poem #Poetry #Micropoetry #Vss365 #BlueSkyrelay

I was the secondary,
the replacement,
giving my body
in service to mankind.

When the job
was done,
there was no gratitude,
no looking back
only the empty space
in my soul.

surrogate i keep a small life to stand in— mornings, repetition, the way the light moves without asking. it does the work of comfort well enough. what it replaces goes unnamed. this is how to live without the things you need to stay alive.

The love poem I wanted   My bejumpered, bespectacled beauty With corn silk hair a crowning halo, Shining above a graceful landscape: Eyes the summer pools, In which my heart swims. Lips a field of poppies, Mesmerising, undulating, dangerously tempting.  Cheeks the rosy apples offered by witches  Sustaining me on my journey   How you burn every room with your fire, How you break every bridge that won’t stand, How you rise from each fall, climbing higher, How you conquer with will, not with hand.   My bejumpered, bespectacled beauty.  Reaches out arms that embrace  with warmth, strength, longing.  Sheltering those within their reach From the cares and harms of the world. There I escape the boundary of my being My heart is wrapped inside. Captive, captivated.   Trapped forever, content to be so.    How you wrestle each problem with reason, How you kindle a smile through the pain, How you battle the night and its demons, How you rise up to fight once again.   My bejumpered, bespectacled beauty  Whose passion could shatter the moon And replace the sun with a fire more fierce Blackening my nights and  Scorching my soul with bright embers. My heart is warmed by their glow. They light the way ahead. Illuminating our path, Together through the dark.    How I love you with all that I am, How I breathe only under your skies, How I follow wherever you stand, How my world lives and dies in your eyes.

I have given up the notion that I will ever inspire a love poem, so I wrote my own (before I started working on making my poetry more concise!).

@blueskyrelay.bsky.social

i'm flattered Chris!

Thanks for the wishes!

#Love isn’t about ferns & petals.
It’s about devotion.
It’s about surrender.

i might lend that line from you Ann!
