Firelight, Wine & You
Date Night, Done Right.
Picture you,
Picture me,
Pizza on the floor,
A little tv.
A quiet night in,
Lights down low,
Firelight flickers,
A smooth Merlot.
A playful touch,
A sweet embrace,
A little tease,
A hint of chase.
A dance we've danced,
A hundred times,
Maybe its the music,
Maybe it's the wine.
A face so familiar,
Now looks new.
A perfect night,
Just us two.
And I wonder if,
I could steal a kiss,
A chance to take,
Or maybe miss.
Two separate halves,
Together whole,
A lifetime of love,
The ultimate goal.
So hold me close,
As it grows late,
A perfect end,
To a perfect date.

Whispering Woods Challenge Winners
Congratulations to Morgan Christy Rickards for their winning Whispering Woods story, Guardian at the Gate. Morgan has been a Vocal creator since February 2021, and this is their first time placing in Challenge — well done, starting with a win! Guardian at the Gate draws evocatively from Welsh tales of the Cantre'r Gwaelod, a lost sunken kingdom between the forest and the sea. Heledd’s dangerous adventure pulls her towards the water but her spirit is anchored in the woods: Morgan’s writing is atmospheric and exciting.
