Start slow beat by beat
What’s the sound?
Listen carefully
roll along a pulse
Beat
If space shrinks:
Lock those eyes
hit a smile
Are you dancing?
Evoke mahogany bass flow loop resonate
Edge the tone
high and low
wild while soft
sweet
hot

Thank you for such an eloquent “welcome back” note! I’m glad to be back. Had to take a break because my career (geophysics) needed much of my time, and my artistic side focused on painting.
Young? Old? That’s in the mind, right? Glad you are well and blissful.

Hello Adriana, so glad to see you back, I have missed your words. Love the way you describe the slow falling in love, that dance to the heartbeats… I think it’s the slowness that makes it forever.

Thank you for such kind words, Björn. I did miss the thrill of reading and writing poetry. So, just like the tempo in the poem, I am slowly making my way back to continue my lifelong love affair with poetry. 🙂

I love how love goes from soft and sweet to hot and sweet! Beautiful!

Thank you. The idea of love inspired me. 🙂
