Hello? This is Stephen. I've really been enjoying the poetic community here. And so the next one that I'm sharing is an ode to my candle or two candles. And here goes
I am so grateful that I get the opportunity to be in spaces like this, unswell with poets like you who bring me such a different perspective in poetry, but a fantastic one. Awesome piece. Thank you so much for sharing

Hey, I agree with Don Murray about this unique twist. The line I'm trying to remember it the dripping. She was just so not about the candle, the dimness and the dripping. It was more so much about the interplay between humans and emotions and light and dark and just being present with sort of a yearning. I just loved it. And it's nice to hear all your poetry. It's really cool. This space is so beautiful

I always say that, don't I? Ask Stephen. I agree. You have this unique, unique way of expressing and storytelling and capturing these kind of moments of contemplation, and it's very sincere. It's almost like you're communing with the elements. You're communing with the candle, you're communing with the moon. You're very in touch, you're very in tune. And the poetry is just kind of sublime and so well crafted

This is really, really beautiful, Stephen, as all your poetry is. You know how I feel about that. I really love how you say in my dreams I understand you. And then I wonder if in your dreams tomorrow if you'll understand me. Something like that. Absolutely, absolutely beautiful
