frenzied florals shaking in the wind - the storm didn't weaken them; they only grew stronger - resilient hardy reaching skyward #emoetry #frenzied #poetry #photography #flower #bloomscrolling

There was a time your verses held me spellbound; but turning back the pages now, the more you write, the hollower they sound.

🌺 "How to Live This Morning" The geranium in my bay window blooms in quiet glory, untroubled that it will fade within days. It teaches me how to live this morning. #Poetry #Micropoetry #Flowers #NatureWriting

Felt. I stress about that sometimes after I DO post something. My thoughts are often random and come 5,000 at a time, and sometimes whatever thought spurs a poem isn't reflective of what my actual emotional state is (or even about something that happened recently...and sometimes it's fictional!)

sometimes I don't post something because I'm afraid it will be taken the wrong way or I'm already embarrassed by it #emoetry #embarrassed #poetry #writing

I need to stop procrastinating and start back on this grant proposal that is stressing me out... 🫠 But first, here's a poem I thought of at lunch just now when I smelled the first ripe peach of the season. (Written in the middle of a court case I can't say much about) #poetry #summer #mindfulness

The #moon the other night was beautiful as it rose. #blueskymonday #photoaday

the way you light up the room and my heart when you smile, eyes all sparkling and crinkles at the sides #poetry #love

@poetryandwords.bsky.social I love this so much. Something I have had to get used to is the quiet love. I was used to people who would often loudly say all the right things, but not DO them. Jack is a quiet man of few words, but his consistent actions show me that he loves and prioritizes me. 🥰

You saw my vulnerability and just went with it, didn't you? DIDN'T you? #poetry

Twenty-three years ago today, my Nana - my mom's mom - passed away from suspected fentanyl overdose while I lived over 2,000 miles away. I had lived with her just before, and have always had the thought in the back of my head: "what if it was my fault?" I know it wasn't. But still. Mom's death..🧵

Remembering all those years ago - I had never turned so red, So red. #emoetry #embarrassed #poetry

#DavidsMonthOfMusic Day 1: one hit wonder Gotye: Somebody I Used to Know My husband loves this song. I ask no questions 😅 (Though I'd happily listen if he wanted to talk) We were both just months shy of 30 when we started dating, after all. Sometimes past pain still surfaces, even if it changes.

YAY it's Mizz Whozza Whazzit day!!! IYKYK 🥰 @mwplovesmusic.bsky.social

It was my kid, and I was mad. (I kid, pun intended tyvm 😜)

Literary cat on #caturday.

I have mixed feelings about Fourth of July this year because I am no longer a very big fan of this country, yet I remain a very big fan of burgers.

I call this one "Jeez". I think we all know at least one person like this. #vss365 #remnant #poem #poetry #writingcommunity

In solitude, a person often feels more surrounded by life than in a crowd.
