When Talk Ignites A Fire
I'm Imagining'
*
Embers still burning after all of this time
Cleansing the pallet of touch
Love once empowering - completely entwined
I've never imagined so much
Pain is the catalyst that now redefines
Simple pleasures now viewed as a crutch
Evolving realities of what I imagined and the essence of what once was mine

Doing it for the troops
The others dropped like flies around me. We fought and struggled to get to this point. I'm the only one left now. The objective is right there. A mere two hundred feet away. The last of my team got a bullet to the head right next to me, but I couldn't do anything. I was able to locate and neutralise the sniper as he shot my friend, so his death was at least not in vain.

Sadly beautiful. Well done.
And she does it again. Wonderful work, Kelli. Wonderful. I mean it's really quite heartbreaking, but done so beautifully!
Pain is the catalyst, I really loved that. Beautiful Acrostic!
👏👏👏👏👏
Good work and quite a definition of one form or 'eclipse'.
Another beautifully thoughtful poem, Kelli. Just one editorial note: on the fourth line you have "I've could" where I'm pretty sure you want either "I've" or "I could".
Incredible. Btw, your dense pal in Sweden wonders if there is an eclipse I haven't heard about coming sometime soon..or did I sleep through it?
Awesome!!! Beautifully written!!! Love it!!!💕❤️❤️
