you’re nameless and faceless some shun you, claiming your existence is baseless you’ve been with me right from the start, always together, never apart you’ve spoken to me softly over the years sometimes your wisdom reduces me to tears you’ve talked with me quietly, sometimes loudly--your voice loud and deep your words I’ve learned to rely upon and keep you’ve never forsaken me even when I ignored you making you doubt in your very existence and in your clout you’ve stayed with me regardless, always close at hand your insights I’ve come to trust and understand you’ve never sent me astray keeping dangerous situations and toxic people at bay you’ve always provided me with life’s provisions saving me from horrible decisions and almost certain ruinous collisions you’ve helped me in discerning little lies rescuing me from their cloaked, shadowy disguise I feel twinges when you are near I cherish you like a beloved friend, my dear you’ve been and still are near and dear to my heart know in my life you play a huge part you’re my featherless angel with keen, panoramic vision our relationship is more than I could ever envision you’re the highest form of intelligence scientists say there’s no such thing as your sixth sense or your eloquence you’re a sensation, a frequency, an internal vibe one of which I consistently imbibe you’re as real as any person I know because of you, I have few fears, no need to lay low you’re my intuition, don’t ya know

Dear Sara, this is so unique and so creative how you’ve interpreted the prompt and written for it! Very different from other takes on the prompt. I love how you’ve described intuitions as featherless angels, and how you’ve described many ignoring intuitions and how theyve helped you through confusing times etc! “ you’re the highest form of intelligence” i agree with you! Intuitions being a sensation frequency, that not many connect with! How profound! CONGRATULATIONS on winning, being placed 1st

Oh dearest Ink--I'm stunned, humbled, but grateful that my poem placed first in your contest. I'm at a loss for words. I appreciate your complimentary words and for deeply understanding my thoughts on intuition. I'm delighted that we're on a similar frequency. Thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul for the first place honor. I'm floating right now. Have a splendid day, hugs, Sara

I loved your Couplets, Sara. It reminds me of a riddle with the closing line exposing the mystery, intuition. Lovely clues throughout. Smiles ~ Blessings Bill
