"She smiles (thinly) spins

Posted on Sun, 29 Aug 2021

"She smiles (thinly) spins and twirls," seems sad? Is it because she is trapped doing the same dance over and over, like a doorkeeper into magic, so though she seems fragile is powerful. But longs to have wings be in the place she guards?

If so much in a conciousness

Posted on Sun, 29 Aug 2021

If so much in a conciousness is inherent instinct, there must be connection with those sharing that instinct in the present, I like how you say "a surge of the energy of one" and maybe too with those who passed the instinct down. In such brief...

This is gorgeous Jenny, I'm also not sure I understand properly what it's about but find it very comforting and I am sure that it holds great truth

How you have broken up sentences makes words seem frightening, like falling through ice and the bits are all sharp, where once skated effortlessly. Even the rhythm jars in your poem, adds to the fear. I am so sorry about your father, it is aweful...

Posted on Wed, 25 Aug 2021

Ah, did wonder about that, they are a great advert for a Creator though, aren't they? Would be easy to think of how amazing a Creator must be, when thinking of those colours :0) The thing is, idols are man made, second hand gods, and birds aren't...

I love the long, flowing

Posted on Wed, 25 Aug 2021

Posted on Wed, 25 Aug 2021

they are so BEAUTIFUL! I had never heard of them, those COLOURS! It seems specisist to me, that it might be a sin to kill one kind of bird but fine to eat another, however there must be something so wrong with a person to want to destroy such...

Well done tackling this

Posted on Tue, 24 Aug 2021

Well done tackling this subject. I hope people remember how they feel about Afghanistan now, when those able to escape need somewhere to live. There must be lots of asylum seekers here and in other countries, already, wishing they were accepted

Gosh! They must be like

Posted on Mon, 23 Aug 2021

Gosh! They must be like treasure, being written by hand makes them much more powerful than emails, I think? That the sender's hand shaped the words, touched the paper, makes it feel like they must have some kind of link, still, to that person? As...
