Something quite ethereal about this sentiment. And I'm glad I got to hear it here. I enjoyed reading it. I'm glad I got to hear it here because that warmth and intention really came through. I do love your work, I love your sensibility, and I really look forward to more. It's always worth the wait

Wow. This is so beautiful. Echoing Pixie's response to what we're poetry lives in this space is so gorgeous because we can just take our time and listen and relisten. Sometimes when I hear poetry on swell, I don't know if I want to reply because I don't want my voice to get in the way of someone's experience of the actual first swell of a poet. But you know, that's what's so interesting about this

I just really enjoy how all of this came from one conversation you had with a friend, and it just really shows how inspiration just can come anywhere. You just got to open your mind and kind of just start writing. So, yeah, thank you for sharing this beautiful piece. I really enjoyed it. I just kept playing it over and over and over because you just have this really beautiful, soothing voice, and it's just easy to get lost into

Greetings. Wow. That was very kind of you. I appreciate you listening and allowing the words to find a space. I really appreciate that. I appreciate you, and I hope you're well. And again, from the bottom of my heart, thank you very much
Love, love, love. And as I sat and listened, I remember closing my eyes. It is almost like my skin, like, drank it in. It diffused through me. And so I'm going to listen again. Again, because I'm just taken away by the visuals, by the sound of your voice. Just all of it. It's a whole mood. It's a whole vibe. Thank you for sharing your craft and your words with us

Greetings, Dr. Joy Khalid. Just want to stop by and say thank you from the bottom of my heart for such a warm response to the piece. One never can exactly envision how their words will be received, but when they are received as warmly as what you conveyed, it it absolutely envelops my heart. And I just want to thank you and tell you that it does not go unappreciated. And Happy New Year. Thank you again

Good morning. First of all, your voice is very soothing. Your poem was the first thing I listened to this morning with words. My other was meditation music. But that poem really, really hit. It was I don't know, it was indescribable, but I absolutely loved it. So thank you for sharing

Hey, Sarah. Colleen. First off, thank you so much for such kind words and for taking the time to listen to the piece and just give me such a beautiful, warm feedback. It's very encouraging. And as writers, we often jump from literary cliffs and hope to land. And it's invigorating and expanding when the words find a home. And thank you. Thank you. Thank you

Wow, that was beautiful. And it reminds me of the poem or quote whatever you want to say that they played. They said, in the shape of water, unable to perceive the shape of you, I find you all around me. Your presence filled my eyes with your love. It humbled my heart for you are everywhere. Thank you for sharing and have a beautiful evening
And so it's very comforting to view the world in that way because, as I said, my grandmother is no longer with us, but really, she is in spirit. That really this piece really touched me. It was very beautiful. And thank you for sharing. Thank you for inviting me
