The sun dips into the sea, making it blaze while the waves, amazed, shyly retreat.
I’m the only witness to this explosive orgy of flames as you’re standing behind me with your arms around my waist and your face buried in my tangled hair.
For that one brief moment, as you inhale deeply with your eyes closed and I attempt to fully grasp this extraordinary spectacle, we are one and the same β fierce, invincible, we are the guardians of the Galaxy.
Really nice … you’re great.

Hi Nathalie.
I just wanted to take a break from
Wordpress for a while.
So I deleted my site.
I did try two or three different
poetry forums, but I found them to be
quite unfriendly places.
It’s good to be back. π
And with a totally new site. π

Hi Alan!
Sorry about late reply! Notifications screwed on here for me, and I’ve hardly been present anyway. I’m sorry you found the poetry forums unfriendly places, I have no experience with them myself. I’m glad you’re back though, and I will check out what you’ve been up to later. I did try your old site several times when you were gone in the hope of finding a different message each time than “this site has been deleted” π
