My ions are on my side

I open my eyes To beauty, sometimes It's my day today My friend will pick me up (Not because I've done my share of lifts but just because...) And we'll go out and meet our other friends The whole evening we'll reaffirm each other Because each of us brings delight We'll bring our flaws too But for some reason in that space Flaws enhance everything Turn mundane into high level fun I'd explain but you have to be there :) But right now I feel bathed in love The chat on the group is acting like a shield Comments on my poems last night and this morning just elevating me to a different version of myself I can still feel my heart aching But it's far away for now

Diversity is the name of the game Dilly, friends all bring something different to the table, flaws n all, what would man (well women in this case be without flaws) lol! we try reassure each other without judgement and enjoy the experience! lose a few negative atoms in conversation whilst ionising the rest, enjoy the night, cheers David

We honestly have the best times no matter where we are or what we do, when the mood strikes I'm quite keen on an opportunity to dance like everybody is watching though. My ions were slightly off key because the place said I can't win all the prizes, if I go again I'll have to hold back til it's the big prizes on offer :)

It is usually tough times that bring out the poet in us, writing has allowed me to embrace myself a lot more than I ever did before and the great thing is my friends consistently cheer me on. Thanks for stopping by x

Your poem radiates with warmth and joy. A wonderful portrayal of friendship and the shared experience of upliftment is deeply touching. The way you express the transformative power of companionship and mutual support is truly inspiring. What a beautiful reflection on the bonds that elevate us to our best selves. - Blessings, Daniel
