In the hush,
in
the sigh and pine of dusk, I
feel your aura call, and
the lust of you is all I
need to numb my skin, (to)
knit my soul that is akin to tin…
to you.
*
In
this room the dark can fade, and
in my womb there is an ache, and
I hope that Here,
a life is made, with
the song that is of me, and
the calm that is of you.
*
Thin
curl and arc of pale, June moon -
oh,
the rush it is to
have you in our view, may
we sow a cup of hope dust in
the lull and glow of you?
We
will mold and wish her into star, we
will hold her in our arms, she
will be the part of us that ties
our love into the sky, like
the dove that is of me,
and
the moon milk beam (that is)
of you.
*
Spin
silk and wrap me with
your kiss;
in
the stir of both our lips, I
can’t find a city (in) the sky I feel
will vie the high
of this.
Oh,
kind and cozy warm, you are…
so much so, my
mind and body star... (they)
bend to you --and--
mend with you -
(as if we were)
amid a sea of glue and Eden tar, this
drop of dew upon my hips (is)
all that I can wish, it’s
a gift to give this moon.dust.soul a life to
live with you -- so pure and soft,
so rich.
*
In
the pool of warm and sun
as
the ink of hope buds into dawn...
this
blot of dark upon our love will
turn into a swan that
is the song of me, and
is the calm of you, for
(from this very spot) the hush and rush
have gone, (and she)
will be the hue of me, and
the blue moon ease (that is)
so true and is
of you.

My Tolerated Self
I'd like to think I'd escape for better days. Even though the needles pricking into my skin may urge me to stay put, we are not meant for boxes and contraptions that will keep us inside. The needles aren't real, they are like bugs crawling on my skin—those feelings will fade with clarity, but some days I am unwilling to step outside of my tolerated self; my bones crumble at the idea of a future uncertain. I'm used to the boxes that keep me in place even though I know I can walk right through them and I'd be fine.

I AM
This is not who I thought I would be. Before my family was captured and forced into slavery, I had aspirations of becoming a wealthy business owner or possibly a scholar and philosopher. Becoming a warrior was the furthest thing from my mind. Unfortunately, our Roman conquerors had other plans.

Nice story 👍
I found you thanks to Paul and his Vocal Deep Cuts piece. I’m very glad I did. Your poetry gives such beautiful feeling to read 🤍✨
Great thank u for give me wonderful reading experience keep it up give suggestions my posts and subscribe me !! HAVE A WONDER FUL DAY
I thought I'd missed this but then noticed a comment at the bottom. But loved the revisit.
This is so beautifully written :) really… soft and all warm fluffy feeling
This is a dreamy dance across stars (and silk sheets.)😉 Very well done as always.
This is so beautiful I’m speechless!
"Thin curl and arc of pale, June moon - oh, the rush it is to have you in our view, may we sow a cup of hope dust in the lull and glow of you?" My favorite part aside from the closing lines. Absolute beauty. I can't help but envision you as a prolific bard, in a time when bards sang to lute song. You seem to have music in your soul and heart, and it spills out in perfect meter and rhyme, and with thread of unique magic. This poem is spectacular. A true moment of love and hope for the future captured in verse. I feel you have taken the wish of my own heart and placed it on the page, the beauty shining for all to see. Utterly masterful. ❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
some very lovely imagery here and a completed thread of story - very nice
Great job Gina! ☺️👏✨ Wonderful piece and cool and cozy image as well! See, you can do your THING with four words! I don’t know how you did it but you did! I can’t think of anything.. I seem to start a few short lines and it doesn’t go anywhere. Oh well. Such is life. Do you plan this intricately or does it just flow?
Whoaaaaa! Your poem made me extremely awestruck! I don't think anyone can write about this in a more beautiful way than you have. You also made this challenge as easy as taking candy from a kid! You are so wowwwww!
Dear Ms. Gina - Ah, you "Drop-Dew" onto my 2 new 'Hips' - Always fun to see what you come up with next - Jay
A night, not simply of passion, but of a much fuller love & hope for the future, so beautifully expressed I had to read it three times through, Gina. Marvelous.
Absolutely stunning my friend, bravo 😊😊
We all know who will win this challenge. Gina, give others a damn chance, will you? 😂 Phenomenal, as always!
You simply weave magic into words with such beauty and gentleness and heart. Now I don't know which entry is my favorite!! Loved it so much!!!
Gurl! This is gorgeous! So sensual & dreamy! I love it! So brilliantly crafted! This was so divine! Go Gina Go! So🔥!
Oooooo the silken threads you spin into a fine cloth of poetry. Beautiful poem Gina 🥰
Expresses love, union, the creation of life on every level. The degree of inner complexity you have built from such simple words is breathtaking: so many things come together in this. Loved this: "amid a sea of glue and Eden tar, this drop of dew upon my hips (is) all that I can wish" So unique. Thanks. :)
Beautiful work, Gina! 🥰
So beautiful!
Lovely!!! Loved it!!!♥️♥️💕
You spin words into the finest wool, Gina! I agree; you've created a winner here.
