Yesterday went a little differently than I’d hoped…a concussion, 13 stitches, and a lot of fear and uncertainty. All is well, and I feel grateful that things weren’t worse. My point is this…. (1 of 2) #wellbeing #mentalhealth

I scan the night sky seeking the star we called ours my glint in the void #haikufeels #scan

Reason can’t explain that which love can well reason such heartfelt logic #haikufeels #explain

Hollow scapes The light is low The damp earth yields beneath the foot The world seems far away A quiet rest the soul seeks A single fern begins to rise Reflecting hidden skies Twilight gathers deep and cool A sanctuary, beside her still As she watches tall grass nod to the breeze #BluSkyPoetry

if i could travel anywhere it would be within my rocket of dreams upon blissful moaning lyrical waves straight into your heart where my poetic words of love would beautifully blend with the music of you & chords of my soul becomes your eternal melody as you make me your forever #FoxProse

#vss365 In my parenting garden I planted ideas sowed seeds of protection Words blossomed their #intent defined by the butterfly You did not accept the flowers I offered; to you, they were weeds; #betrayal Now in each fleeting visit each turning season that day #lingers among the flowers I offer.

They’d met in the park. Seemed like as good a place as any to break a man’s heart. Ewan screamed and grabbed Anna, ‘Why did you tell me? Do you enjoy seeing me suffer?’ Ann #lingered even though Ewan was hurting her. Whatever it takes, she thought, until he’s mine #vss365

Unless there was another quest giver in the area it never paid to #linger in one place too long. There was always something else to do somewhere. Some barbarian in distress, or wicked damsel to defeat. Rory wanted to do it all. And if he did do it all, he’d do it again with a new character. #vss365

Only twisted, broken and useless wreckage remained. The Enemy didn’t #linger, nor did they leave anything that they could use. Not even bodies. If only they could find out more about them, learn their tech, examine corpses, the Alliance could do something, anything, to even the odds. #vss365

leap from towering cliffs, through orange beams to the dark, where live corals glow. divine depths hold this hidden prize, sacred love devours the night. #tanka #poetry prize #maytanka

Perhaps you have no idea How your poetic words Command to #linger In the clouds all day And the stars all night Perhaps you know exactly In the echoes of their whispers Reverberating within my ribcage perfectly #vss365 #poem

Your presence lingers Skin tingles with blush and dew Spring blossoms flutter #vss365 #linger #haiku #poetry

#linger with me a while longer in this moment that claims fate stay in this irreverent bliss please i have forever to miss you we only have now to be overwhelmed by possibility to be crux not periphery flame not umbra to be everything to each other and the stars #vss365

When the past lingers longer than I prefer, I nudge it back where it belongs. I say, "goodbye," and tuck it safely in a memory that is no longer alive, as long as I let it stay dead. I won't allow the past to rip my heart out again. I allow the present to heal me #vss365 #linger Gabe's Little Book

Still #linger #vss365 #poetry #bskypoets #writingcommunity

Sand in my hair salt on my skin & the light lingers                just            enough           to take your hand and     suddenly         the world softens again #vss365 #nature #photography

"Well, Montor," she says, touching my arm, "how about buying a lady a drink? I have never seen you here before." "This is my first time." The tip of her tongue #linger-s at the corner of her mouth. “I thought so. I am here often and surely would have remembered you.” #vss365

- i see you at a club, sequins capturing fluorescence then casting it forth to blind your suitors champagne or ambrosia – who can say? but i feel the purr numb my throat silence lingers between us like smoke, the surreal of thresholds, & the haze aches so pretty - #vss365 #poetry

That moment before you leap into the cold blue sea or step out on a quest for wonder that last breath held in the hollow of your chest before you slip away to the unknown on the other side where spirits roam and questions linger in the air unanswered #vss365 #linger

airing out distance with retiring rainfall fresh silence #lingers #vss365 #DailyHaikuPrompt #airing_out #blueskypoets #nature #seascape #photography

Linger a little longer, Stay an old man’s tears— What’s another moment, Next to all these years? Life’s a little lighter, When that you are near, So I’ll linger a little longer Knowing that you’re here. #vss365

Bright buttercups unfurl beside a pristine brooklet, perennial currents flow molding the pebbles and thickening the meadows, dainty dandelions float wishes linger in the breeze, serenity softly sealed in fragrant springfields. #vss365 #inkmine #poetry #thingstowriteabout #BSPP53 #vssfantasy #emoetry

Pt493 Ang was going to have to push down any #lingering emotions that made her react like this clone was in any way her actual mother still. It wasn’t easy to manage her #thoughts, much less be rational when this clone kept toying with her feelings like this & SMELLED like Mom. #vss365 #WIPSnips

shed skin still clings newborn form imprisoned by the dead a shadow self outgrown for an eternal moment lingering in the in-between trapped/almost free but new scales harden shine become beautiful shed skin can't cling the shape within at last is free #vss365 #linger

Our love is old clothes #Lingering threads hang loosely Our own ties fraying #vss365 #haiku #poetry

I sip you too politely, craving that smoky sweet breath you drizzle on my lips, a tiny reservoir of you #lingering in this long light of day. These lances of heat enthrall my skin, and I stifle the unearthly urge to devour you like a desert swallowing those first rushes of hungry rain. #vss365

#amlistening “Oh, give me a shot at the night Give me a moment, some kinda mysterious” ✨🎶 youtu.be/X4YK-DEkvcw?...

Where do her lost words flutter off to? Do they slip into the dim alleys of forgotten people, frayed #intentions, dying light. Do they form on others’ lips, kissing warmth onto hearts she’ll never touch, Or perhaps they’re folded into dreams and reborn, waking as a glint in someone’s eyes. #vss365

moonlight, through dark leaves, shadows on my lips our #luminous loss of senses our soliloquy of surrender do you feel it? your hands our language this liminal menagerie this electric dance. 📷 Pixabay #vss365 #poem #poetry #blueskypoets #poetsofbluesky

a world in turmoil collective surrendering waving the peace flag

Crow’s nest Heart to heart Sitting with the rhythm Across Lily’s chest. A loving betrayal She tickles, His sleeping breast. Rare lightness, To chest. In the morning Apples and fresh mince, She’ll enjoy keeping him fed. #vss365 #betrayal The Landican Burrows

venus stirs the smoke jupiter wakes the flame we flicker as one #dailyhaikuprompt #haiku #poetry

love’s betrayal, when you gave up on me and I gave up on you… the order and frequency of these events matter not #vss365 #betrayal #poetry #haiku #tanka #ECK #nature #photography #ImageAndVerse #art #painting #NaturePhotography #writingcommunity

I betrayed myself for you Made an idol of your love … #vss365 #betrayal #poetry #survivor

'Why was Pixie banished from Faery Valley? How did she end up with Gabe as her angel guardian? Did her #betrayal of him almost end the world? There's only one way to find out... read the books! 😂 Book 3 coming June 2026. #vss365 katemachon.com/books/

The cunning and completely unexpected #betrayal happened just as Rory had expected, but the game mechanic meant that Esme had to be as ‘fooled’ as everyone else and preceded a chase through the castle. The point was for the betrayer to get away. Didn’t mean Rory couldn’t outrun him. #vss365

Even though Dylan knew why they were held back, the Antilles was simply not powerful enough, it still felt like a #betrayal to his crew that had seen the signs and called in for back-up. He watched as the destroyers smoothly moved in toward The Enemy. Maybe, this time, they would win? #vss365

When you’ve stepped over her line Words you spoke, they hit her mark Don’t burn the bridge Don’t close the path Don’t get caught in her web Her subtle smile As you walk, to her less forgiving grounds It’s not anger or her raging storm Just tread carefully when crossing her line #BluSkyPoetry

may hope send me where the night birds caress the skyline no perfidy, no #betrayal only the sound of eternal heartbeats. #vss365

it's not your calm mask that soothes me during our farewells it's the way you hug me as if you're trying to absorb me into your being I never tell you but I love this #betrayal of your nonchalant act #vss365

Trust is the betrayal of the mind Love is a betrayal of the heart Friendship is a #betrayal of the soul. #darkprose #vss365 Going through old notebooks, I'm all good now. I learnt I didn't need butterfly wings to fly like the others.

Your points, Betrayal has not broken, Do you know, You’re worth something Equating a star ? Your hearts Not been stolen It's a little tired, Feeling a little less red Love, I know is sometimes Cruley miss-fed. #vss365 #betrayal

In the sanctuary of shared shadows, the knife whispers your name before it twists: this is #betrayal wearing the mask of home. #vss365

#vss365 #Betrayal From 2022, when I wrote what was my writing account, before I morphed into ArtistDora. New version slightly edited. Charity begins at home, I've often heard. Nay I say! Envy, when fortune smiles, equals fake tears & duplicitous smiles when disaster strikes.

it would be complete #betrayal not to say that you, only you are the sovereign of my slumbers and the constant muse of my waking mind #vss365

I know when my madness begins, I have to remind myself, Again and again Not to betray, not to give in. Not to let The words accumalte Remaining scared, unwritten, Nightmares begin to seep Into the world of the living Please, please, Keep having something To say #mentalhealth #awarness

the #betrayal lays with the insufficiency there just aren't the words i could pen you more clichés serenade you with synonyms whisper sweet nouns that you would recognise but could barely scratch the skin but here i am another last stanza wishing you adored me too #vss365

The quietest #betrayal isn't the knife in your back - it's the fake smile that promised loyalty while sharpening it. In a world of fragile alliances, who are you truly trusting? #vss365

“One, two, #three. Now #turn a full circle then open your eyes & look up at the sky.” She did as her dance teacher instructed. A beam of light formed a never ending tunnel above her, pulling her in. Looking down in horror she saw her teacher smiling. The aliens above, were not. #2wordprompt
