That's why I love to stroll the woods once Spring begins hiding in
the first flowers.

Loved the line about wild garlic since we have a lot of it around here and just reading about it evokes that scent (an acquired one, but I like it) that fills the forest.

Wonderful evocative poem! β˜€οΈβœ’οΈπŸ’œ

Soon there will be lambs

signs of spring
light chasing
calves chasing each other

even the fallen trees
bring new life
soon there will be lambs

wild garlic 
transforms the woods
nettles regrow

the world beyond
desolate 
cold

Soon there will be lambs signs of spring light chasing calves chasing each other even the fallen trees bring new life soon there will be lambs wild garlic transforms the woods nettles regrow the world beyond desolate cold

Ju's #promptcombo #free40 this morning was tricky! I had a go at something seasonal, trying to remember that the real world rests and restores regardless of human ignorance and stupidity. Thanks @hool415.bsky.social for the prompt I'll try to read others later! #poems #poetry #writingcommunity

To hopefully improve her post visibility. She's nothings short of an awesome prompter/poet/community builder.

Check out her feed for inspiration. It never failed to pull out another piece of poetry out of me so far.

#PoemsAbout #Consent starts Friday.

Write the clarity.
The moment the body relaxes because it’s heard.
The heat that arrives only after agreement.

Consent isn’t the absence of refusal.
It’s the presence of want.

Draft now.
Share from Friday.

Silenced in Plain Sight – The Washington Spectrum: Algorithmic Suppression Ms. AWashington | ARW-RAW

β€œSilenced in Plain Sight β€” The Washington Spectrum.”

It comes directly from what I’ve been witnessing here: voices growing, engagement collapsing,communities disappearing from our own feeds.

This paper names the pattern β€” and the infrastructure behind it.

The Lucky Ones

whatever 
keeps you afloat 
these days
drowning in headlines

Anxiety 
this new old houseguest
wears a smile of rubbles 

your doors wide open
through the glistening 
of black mirrors
she enters

rearranging the furniture
leaving burn marks on 
that carpet you love so much 

please leave! you try to scream
yet nothing but a whimper
leaving your mouth β€” 
teeth grinding
a deeper understanding 
aching

within your marrow 
she feeds on
eventually β€” sated β€” she goes away 

because you are still amongst
the lucky ones

i am the breath

the peony
opening in your hand

you call it future
i call it spring

my body remembers
the warmthβ€”

Saw a Red Fox on the walk home this evening. Didn’t have my camera, so here is another March fox from a couple of years ago - trotting and then stopping for some scritching 🌿

we are the quiet ones
those who seem shy
introverted
even antisocial
we sat in the back of class
silently reading
while the world went on
we stand by the wall
at meetings and parties 
seemingly daydreaming
unaware, ignorant
leaving them free to gossip 
we observe you all
silently, carefully
ingesting information
every detail you didn't notice
every word you'll say was a lie 
we will remember, for
we are the quiet ones

if I told you
I was from the future
it wouldn't even
be a lie
I've kissed the dawn
before you saw it
It's a different dawn
A different day
but a kiss all the same

Jolted Memory

jolted memory - lightning struck
in the softness of sleep undisturbed 

some thoughts brewing β€” emerged before
they were uttered and set free into this world
talk labeled cheap yet in the pauses
the unsaid commenced filling whole volumes

between the times in witching hours
witching songs writing themselves 
a bell that tolls, a well that dried up
being replenished as reservoirs renewed

parched throats and parched minds
parchment rustling in the spaces between 

hot concrete cooling under a steady pour
new rain taking away pain, thirst and memory
alike β€” not mine as I remain thirsty for life

Matthias Geh

Yeah, thank you for the prompt. I immediately went there mentally. To the "basic" clovers and how we always go looking for the odd ones out yet we kinda overlook the odd ones out in our midst. Now you made me think again.

Photographed from directly below in a worm’s-eye perspective, this double snowdrop (Galanthus nivalis) reveals its hidden interior in full: three broad, luminous white outer tepals spread outward like wings, their silky surfaces catching the bright late-winter light. At the center sits a densely layered rosette of frilled inner segments in deep emerald and pale green, a compact, rose-like formation ordinarily concealed from view, creating a striking contrast against the pure white of the outer petals. The green stem curves gracefully to one side, while a web of bare, leafless winter branches fans softly out of focus around the bloom, their warm brown tones framed against a clear, deep blue sky. The image captures a quiet moment: a single flower of intricate botanical detail, suspended mid-air against the sparse, skeletal beauty of the season turning toward spring.
