Welcome back to Poppy's Preferences :)

This week I didn't find as many creators that were new to me but definitely stumbled across some beautiful poems. Please check out the links below and look at the poets' profiles too!

Give Me More to Love by Hannah Moore

Okay, this has got to be one of the cleverest poems I've ever read. I'm assuming it's for the Short and Sweet Challenge; she did an absolutely amazing job of saying so much with just four letter words and less. It was incredibly captivating and like I said, INSANELY CLEVER. I can't even explain how good it was.

And Then Suddenly by Callum Smith

This one told a beautiful touching narrative which was effortless to read. There were multiple gorgeous lines I had to reread but the end one really stuck with me:

And if heaven exists; I know it is a sofa with him next to me; existing, loving and being.

On Marriage and Summer Squash by L.A. Hancock

This one was so creative and unique filled with affection and warmth. It all led up to a beautiful, heart-touching ending.

This is New by Mackenzie Davis

Mackenzie Davis always writes incredible poetry, never ceasing to take my breath away. Her poems from the past week have given me a new appreciation for haiku. This was probably my favourite but it was hard to choose. She has incredible talent.

Here's another few that already has some reads but definitely deserve more!

Wildflowers by Joelle Nanula

These four haiku are beautiful on their own and even more amazing together. They flow so effortlessly and have an uplifting message behind them. Some of my favourite poems I've read lately.

Every Inch by Kelli Sheckler-Amsden

This one says so much in such few words. The similes are gorgeous and I found myself rereading it multiple times to fully appreciate the beauty of it.
