This winter is serving so many brilliant sunrises. 🧡✨

Under a misty weight veiled Eyes can’t hide a sadness The whole world sees Except you, tear Shadows keep you heartless Your sun rays filter through Onto skin elsewhere Yet this loveless skin feels, its #sear #vss365

she pursues a strange chase searing across mutilated lands once wrought with splendor & promise her calls scatter searching for the path vain is the exploration the answer is sealed from thicket to darkness only an unresolved thought remains #vss365 #sear #poetry #blueskypoets 🖼️ Lady Amarius

Spinning water world's Racing away from dusks edges As lapping waters darkening blues Picture Ewuana waiting for stars Indigenous guardians in night sky's The calming waves feeling her heartbeats Pacific Ocean's Trails 🌊💙🌏✨️🪶🌎💚🌿

A dragon! Now this was a challenge. Especially considering that no-one else was around to help, so, not so much a challenge as a practically impossible task for Rory and Esme, considering her low level. The dragon tried to #sear the flesh from Esme’s bones, but Rory played smart. He ran. #vss365

First things first, and Dylan returned to a tactic used with his flight of former-smugglers. Practice with the weapons systems against a relatively easy target. The batteries burst out to #sear the surface of the asteroid, but it wasn’t accurate, was far too slow & the ship moved sluggish. #vss365

your beautiful words left an soliloquy of sonnets seared upon my soul, your wondrous touch filled my poetic heart with illuminated hope, but, your final goodbye tore my world apart, with my broken pieces fading into lost darkness, knowing i would never be your forever girl. #vss365 #sear #poetry

Hello, my fellow vss365ers! Your #vss365 #prompt is #sear Song: “Black” by Pearl Jam “I take a walk outside, I'm surrounded by some kids at play I can feel their laughter, so why do I #sear? …I'm spinnin', oh-oh, I'm spinnin' How quick the Sun can drop away?” youtu.be/qgaRVvAKoqQ?...

for you i would animate the stars their glittering dance a heartfelt love note brightening your shadowed nights, for you i would become your moon a glowing beacon of hope & love illuminating your darkest hours, for you i would do anything, just for you, always for you. #vss365 #heartfelt #poetry

in my reveries i find myself answering the unasked questions from you where you offer me the call of your soul the key to all those intricate pieces of you & in that question i find a forever hope as our beating hearts embrace within the yearning of an everlasting love #FoxProse

that wonky smile you gave me with twinkling eyes as you gently brushed the cupids bow of my lips, yes, that's the place i visit when i get lost in my dreams, a sweet serenity of moonlit memories captivated by your touch, with kisses that immersed my soul my once enchanting love. #vss365 #wonky

we woke to snow blocking all roads we couldn't meet for so many days my #heartfelt wish was to see you even if we didn't talk or touch your sweet smile is enough to make me breathe easier #vss365 #FromOneLine 400

So Much To Say Too much to fear A #Heartfelt Heartache Keeps lips away #vss365 #poetry

solitary tree heartfelt appreciation for existence #vss365 #heartfelt

The dialogue from the NPC felt very real, poignant and #heartfelt. It really made Rory feel genuinely empathetic to the character, but they were a Bad Person. It just showed how well the developers had thought about the game. Feeling sympathy for a bad guy? That was some deep storytelling. #vss365

She was a good ship, the ‘Anthill’. A good ship with a half-decent crew, and the other half he could work with or ship them out, but did he want it? He looked at Magpie with #heartfelt worry. If he took this position, he may rarely get to fly her. That was wrong. He’d always fly with her. #vss365

for you i would animate the stars their glittering dance a heartfelt love note brightening your shadowed nights, for you i would become your moon a glowing beacon of hope & love illuminating your darkest hours, for you i would do anything, just for you, always for you. #vss365 #heartfelt #poetry

Last light kisses the mountaintops. Even wayward birds have returned to their nests. In the valley dusk comes early. Weary from the winding road, I wait on your #stoop for the door to open and let me in once more. #vss365 #poetry

her poetry begins where blood boils mirroring the instant of splintered desire answering the dark it digs bone to marrow rips the coat from the soul cuts through the #wonky night of a #tense mind & bursts onto black sheets holding tight patience of veins & outcry of fire #vss365 #emoetry 🖼️ HolgaJen

Like usual midweek humps today Could be a another #wonky Wednesday Instead let’s make it a winky one Under the stars Sunset reds You and I Starting with Morning tequilas Go on, don’t be a grump Nudge nudge Wink wink #vss365

Rory had skipped dialogue and had, accidentally, accepted a side quest that he really didn’t need to do to complete the main part of the quest and it had gone all #wonky, because he had only done it once before, forgotten what he needed to do and the quest didn’t have the usual markers. #vss365

Guiding Magpie toward the ship’s hangar bay, Dylan could see it had been heavily modified. It looked #wonky, lopsided. Not that it mattered in space. The Antilles, which, of course, he already knew the crew called ‘The Anthill’. A small warship, barely worthy of the name. His now. #vss365

that wonky smile you gave me with twinkling eyes as you gently brushed the cupids bow of my lips, yes, that's the place i visit when i get lost in my dreams, a sweet serenity of moonlit memories captivated by your touch, with kisses that immersed my soul my once enchanting love. #vss365 #wonky

Spoiler alert Get ready. The multi talented Bethany Samaddar @blsamaddar.bsky.social is poised to take over as prompt host for #vss365 from the 16th of January.

#vss365 #prompt for 14 January, 2026, is #wonky So let's be having wonky poems/prose. You can have a wonky nose and a crooked mouth and a double chin and stick-out teeth, but if you have good thoughts it will shine out of your face like sunbeams Roald Dahl, The Twits

Good morning. the cardinal's trill from tree branch high a whisper of snow passing by as the sun climbs the eastern sky my tea steams the windowsill the rising sun ethereal ~OProinntigh 🍵🫖🥰 #poetrycommunity #blueskypoet

Swooping in trying to save me In a Superman fly catch trope When all I see Is a bended figure In a cloaked #stoop Today is not the day to be A mock superhero I can kick punch and ankle bite My own way out Of my clingy bed, eventually Just make sure the coffee’s hot #vss365

Rory had gone into a materials gathering frenzy because one of his stores had gone below five thousand, and he watched Esme #stoop to cut the flowers or pickaxe the ores. It took time, but it all became important when he needed potions or to build some new armour for his characters. #vss365

Dylan sat on the #stoop outside the training facility and took a slug of something not too far removed from whisky, if he didn’t think too much about it. Captain of his own ship. It sounded ridiculous. He already had his own ship. Admittedly, not a warship, but why would he need more than Magpie?

within your wondrous touch of love you found my lost heart ~floating~ amid stooped sombre skies & with scoops of moondust you scattered over the shadows of my soul it let breathtaking light in filled with radiant firefly hope & a promise to forever share starry skies by your side #vss365 #stoop

#vss365 #prompt for 13 January, 2026, is #stoop "Wisdom is oftentimes nearer when we stoop than when we soar." - William Wordsworth William Shakespeare, Henry V “When pride is willing pride will stoop.” “I would never stoop so low as to be fashionable.” Dolly Parton

we woke to snow that luminous misty morning in a woodland of wishes spellbound amid lustrous birch trees 'neath soft snowy skies & as iridescent icicles sang an enchanting winter aria our two rare oddball hearts brought together in the aurora light of dreams found a forever love

there they are again those fluttering butterflies that breathless sigh when i catch a glimpse of you as your eyes meet mine i'm left awestruck & beautfully soaring high for i would deliver my sunset soul to you i would deliver my entire heart to you if you asked me to #vss365 #poetry 🎨 Freepik 🦋

Dozens of soldiers surrounded me. I holstered my weapons, summoned my mental power, and hurled a bunch of them across the room. Having spent a lot of mental power on telekinesis already, I went on a #slapdash, hand-to-hand combat rampage to deal with those remaining. #vss365

#vss365 With a #splashdash of this & that, my world flourishes in the midst of past moments recalled & treasured, a collage of emotions, a colorful bouquet, a fabulist's delight!

It was like slipping on ice A disaster movie sequence #Slapdash manoeuvre Sweaty palms galloping heart Outside the college bus stop When he asked me out He was 16 to 18 I, near 40 Showed him my ring, sorry—married His mates laughed My bus, phew came fast #vss365 #truestory
