Beautiful swirl towards the bright abyss wallpaper - Abstract ...

found midst the moonlit sheets I swim your soul my flesh, wild water bound by blue beams swirling, deep your sea ... lost. Written and submitted on June 7, 2020 For the "Ninette" Poetry Contest Emile Pinet, Judge & Sponsor.

AWESOME poem, sir Gregory! Congrats on your #1 win in Emile's contest, a podium spot worth being proud of. You achieved a lovely ambiguity with this, and that unspecified sadness that allows the reader to fill in their own life details. Blessings, friend ~ John
