Love Storm

article image placeholderUploaded by @Pixiepoet4life
Hello, swell family. It's 11:15 p.m. And it's a Monday night and I just finished doing a live poetry open mic and performing, so I'm still in the spirit of poetry. So I decided to come on here and post another poem to Swell. This one was inspired by a fellow Swell authoris. She is also a poet at nourish, you. I am doing this for you. This poem is inspired by your piece

I couldn't work out if you were bringing him to you or he was making his presence known, but there was power and magnetism in that piece. I loved it. I loved it. I was, like on the edge of my seat waiting for that line. Killer, killer piece. I really enjoyed that. I'm going to listen to it again. I'm so excited. Thank you for writing to it and sharing it here. So, so good. So good

And so that's kind of how that developed of me being there in my sunlight and then this storm overtaking me, that's kind of a narrative. But I got lost in it and was so much fun. I had so much fun with that piece. So thank you. Thank you for pushing me to do that and giving me that prompt

Greetings, Love Storm. Absolutely astonishing. It was. I could go on and on, but your delivery, those word choices and those cinematic visuals that you evoked as you read and as you delivered that piece, it was very encompassing. It was a delight to listen to, and I look forward to listening to it again. You are indeed gifted, my friend, and we, the listeners, are very fortunate to be able to explore and experience your beautiful job

As always, you humble me fully. And I so appreciate you for your feedback and your time spent actually listening to my work and my pieces. It's just such a joy to be able to have someone like you, as well as all the other poets on Swell who take the time to listen and to respect and nourish what it is that we as artists and what we do

Wow. Wow. That was amazing. You are a one storyteller, even down to the cadence, the speed at which you tell your stories. I love how you kind of slow it down and give us all a chance to catch up with your flow mentally and emotionally. We really get to think about the words before you continue on to the rest. So I appreciate it. That was dope. Wow

Thank you so much. I fully appreciate your reply. It's so beautiful to me and important to me to be able to get the chance and opportunity to share my pieces here on Swell with the Swell family and all of the different amazing poets that are on this app. I just love it. And so I truly appreciate whenever anybody gives me the A response feedback and just takes the time to communicate and share their thoughts. I just truly appreciate you for doing that. Thank you so much

I'm just so grateful to have been found. My whole life, I have just always wanted to be seen and heard. I felt like I was never heard when I was younger, I went through a lot of abuse and suffered a lot of things that created a lot of traumas in my mind. And so to be seen as a whole person that has something to offer, to be heard, as a voice that has something worthwhile to say, is so important to me
