Congratulations! Well deserved, Cole! Yay!

I love that 'love' is a name you call your beloved, it says so much if not misused. It's so much better than the German 'Liebling'. You're telling a story of growth, commitment and perspective. I love it.

You pulled out all the stops for the last week, huh? #21 'That will never come to fruition' put a damper on it. I so know this feeling. #22 It's a holiday here tomorrow. Can't wait for this feeling. #23 Yes, sometimes it is too much. #24 That's simply beautiful. #25 At least the night is sometimes all we can get. Another damper I know well. #26 lol Never did this. #27 Saw this this morning. #28 I always thought someone had to do what he did, otherwise it wouldn't have happened as it has. It's almost as if someone preyed on his weakness to get everything on track and he had to live with it. Preyed and prayed. Sorry for the rant, lol. #29 Sometimes a blanket can be suffocating. #30 Yes, yes. It can be just like that. Val, this was another great collection. Thank you, for reminding me of NaPoWriMo. Until next year!

You picked 'Summertime'. Chapeau! I really like it!

Thank you, Tim! Great praise! I'm happy you liked them.

We did it! Thanks, Val, for reminding me of NaPoWriMo! I've been in a weird mood last week, I'm glad the poems worked for you.

Thank you, Tim! I'm glad is over, still it was fun, almost cathartic. VAMP! We have to do that again soon.

Again you commented on every single poem! I love reading your thoughts! My cat is fearless (or stupid)... XXVIII is one of my favorite, I am happy I could find the right word for this unspeakable situation. Thank you so much, Parker!

Oh man, not you too. I'm going to quit my job and only write...I wish. Thanks, Tim!

It was a theme party...lol. I've been waiting for a dinner prompt for a while. Thank you for your comment, Tim!

Lol, yes! What is he waiting for? Right? Thanks, Tim.

Sorry about that, but you found something positive, hope, nevertheless. Thank you, Tim.

22: Impressive 23: I'll definitely come visit you at your house! Never did a poetry slam though. 24: Got sweaty hands while reading this. 25: Oh my God! Yes! 26: Bridges are inspiring! You found a much better use for them than just driver over them. 27: This made me wish to sit in the cool shadow of a (the) three and read a book. 28: I've been there, your words recall the feeling. 29: For whatever reason I thought of hats while I read this. 30: I'm still learning, but I dance. 31: 'A lightning to clear the mind'. Absolutely. Thank you, Parker, for a month of fine poetry.

22. Day : closure. 23.Day: I can feel the love 24. Day: not alone 25.Day: I agree Day 26: I hate those days Day 27: hug Day 28: Nice Day 29: yep Day 30: You took me with you on a journey this month. We even wrote something together. Thank you.

XXII. You just go on and slap your knee, Yes, I know the joke’s on me. I just could not help myself, Now your eyes gleam with glee. Rub it in all you want: I barked up the wrong tree. Yep, you told me long ago, Even bought the fucking tee, Borrowed words from old man Bill, “I told thee.” XXIII. The bodies seeking out their own spotlight, Ice cubes fly, expertly caught in a glass, Just flip the bottles; it’s a damn hot night, flex your arms, show your smile, and shake your as

Thank you Renee, for featuring my story.

Lol, yep you're right, it were two. That's why I love to write this story: brief encounters that hopefully incite readers to think about. Thank you, Puppilull.

Thank you, Lisa! For the speedy edit too.

I apologize for the mistake! Thank you and Geemeedee for telling me! To many stories in my head, maybe one day I'm going to write their story.

Haha, if I had the time for all the stories in my head... This prompt story is my opportunity to show at least parts of my ideas. I'm glad you liked it, Val. Thank you for leaving a review!

Hi Geemeedee, Roman is an attorney, who comes to the bar with his colleagues several times the week after work. Thank you for reading the story.

Prompt 494: Use the following words in a story: army uniform, a dog, a tent, a hamburger, and a toy. Roman scanned the bar. The piano bench was still empty, the spotlights off. It seemed the whole room was waiting for Martin, just like him. For whatever reason though, the man was taking his time, and Roman was getting more and more nervous. It made him wonder if that was exactly what Martin was aiming for. The fucker! When the door behind him opened, Roman turned around to see who was comi

I might reopen LHC sometime this week. 494 looks promising.

Happy Birthday, old man! Come over to the bar and I play you your favorite song. Yes, there's drinks too.

It has been a hard week for you and your family and you shared some of the pain with us. It reminded me of those I loss and I felt with you by reading your poems. I'm so glad there are happy ones too. Baker boy is really great. Thank you for sharing, Tim!
