I have been writing poetry since I was a child and it has helped in the good times and bad times. I am always looking within to find the answers to life's problems and to write thought-provoking poetry and prose.
Thanks for checking it out.

What a sense of loss in the end… I read a brief encounter that was doomed to end after the brief tryst that you had.
The passion and togetherness that comes full circle in the end… That’s depicted brilliantly, as well beautifully. No one knows what life shall become, but facing it together is all the difference in times of bliss or hardship. Another beautiful poem, Christine. I really enjoyed reading this one.
I like this Christine – “both knowing more of what was still to come” Altogether delicious… Evoking the best of such passion and its promise.. so well. Makes oneself realise how lucky you’ve been to know what you are talking about… Thanks for prompting some real good memories tonight!
I so love this one Christine. I love how the construct builds and leaves room for more and more.
At the start such an evocative scene
“Hummingbirds hovered
by bougainvillea
tumbling over
whitewashed walls”
Then memories of a distant past flooded in.
“Desires sated
as light rain
showered
surprised
entwined bodies”
Thanks for joining in and making my morning tingle ❤

No, not at all. They had connected and they both knew there was “more of what was still to come” ☺️💕
