Inquiry - a poem for the Writing Impact Challenge

in writingimpact •  7 years ago 

I love this so much @bennettitalia. I snorted coffee out of my nose here:

That still sometimes
(Too often for your comfort)
Surprises you
By doing whatever the fuck it wants.

But then, you do that soulful thing you do that makes me feel wistful and nostalgic for simpler things, rendered through eyes that had seen more than any child should, trees, and wind and magic and china plates and the perpetual washing away of the stones by the sharp smelling waters of the sea.

You're an incredible story-teller, sir.

Ooohh... coffee through the nose, ouch! This has got me grinning from ear to ear. I don't think I could have received higher praise for that line 😍

Thank you so much for loving it. And for telling me about "that soulful thing" I do, and that I have a way with words. You're one to talk, miss "wind and magic and china plates and the perpetual washing away of the stones by the sharp smelling waters of the sea"!
