You see things very clearly. That one we admit into our hearts can be our undoing, can’t it? Glad you liked the charactizations in stanza two. Thank you so much for reading this one!
-
I’m glad you enjoyed that second stanza as much as I did writing it. This was a fun one to write.
-
Thank you, jp. I really appreciate your reading this series, and your comments.

Masquerade Who are these figures in the dance of Autumn's heady, sweet romance? I know I ought to recognize their faces as they sport and prance. I know Attraction by his eyes, and Mystery goes in disguise, see how Seduction rocks and sways to bring his partner up to size. But there are others in my gaze on whom my wishful thinking plays, broad shouldered, blond, with smile serene, and tinted orbs in blues and greys. Love's retinue I

I am still reeling from Election Day, 2016. CJ’s reaction was understated, compared to my own. He did amazingly well, did all that he could do - and you entertained us with it all along the way. Thank you for the ride, my friend.

anniversary and beacon
Parker Owens commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in anniversary and beacon
anniversary speaks to me in reflective words of steadfastness, of love, of shelter. beacon shines in the darkness, radiating words of hope and faith and strength. One seems to send the spirit inward, the other, outward. Together, they are even more beautiful than they are singly. Happy Anniversary, tim and Michael. -
Blessing and being blessed with those you love and take joy in - that’s the delight of Christmas. You say this so well, it makes me smile. Merry Christmas, tim, to you and Michael.

Some wonderful things in this chapter: Galen connects with another injured creature; connecting again with Josh; getting professional help. Miracles aren’t happening overnight, but hope gleams on the horizon. Thank you!

Why Research Is Important To Me
Parker Owens commented on Mikiesboy's story chapter in Why Research Is Important To Me
I could not agree more. When I run into trouble in my writing, it’s often because there is something in it that begs for research, for better information to guide me and the story. Your writing clearly benefits from your research - it’s wonderfully crafted and utterly believable.- 23 comments

Hope your Birthday was filled with joy. And cake...

Your kind words made me smile. That this could conjure images and sounds for you is surely testament to the delight in sharing poetry. The silent watching and listening is both erotic and loving, I hope. Thank you; I am so very glad you liked this.
-
Thank you, jp. I like that you can hear this as I do. I’m glad you like this.
-
Sometimes the night is full of notes. I love the idea that these sounds sing to us - that’s very comforting. Thank you, tim for reading this one, and responding to it.
-
The night has its music, and we can enjoy the rhythm and the melody. Thank you for taking the time to read this.
-
Thank you Val - glad you liked this and caught the sounds of the night in its music. And the edit is now done...you are very kind...
-
Puppi is completely right. I am very much enjoying how this story is developing. These two are becoming fixtures in my heart.
-
Thank you for picking up on that detail. For that reason, the whole mood and color of the last stanza changes, and with it, the tenor of the poem...at least that was the idea. I am so glad you liked this.
-
Thank you, Gary. If this poem set and painted a scene for you, then I feel glad. And classic jazz was kind of fun to use as a metaphor...
