SKIPPING STONES

WRITTEN BY IAMKIITAN AND HASTYWORDS ◊◊ Fluid yellow tinted strokes Color sunbeams on time They fade into a distance As a rotating globe defines   There and then I sat Looking into the skies Lost in the painful memory of it all Where do I begin?   Memories skip their stones Over shallow muddy waters…

BECOMING CALM

This is my second duet with TwinDaddy…aka Stuphblog and he has blown me away.  I have yet to find someone who hasn’t had poetry in their heart.  I love duets because poetry is like a puzzle of words just waiting to be solved.  TwinDaddy may have just found his true calling!  Check out his blog…
