Honeysuckle Heartbeat


You bloomed in heartbeats of cream daisy, longing to be born like breaths of gold honeysuckle petals, but, when fate smeared silence on twinkling throbs of innocence, life sighed in crisp embers of faith as your feet basked in peace above earth. Weaving shine with a pearly smile, you swirled in a snow-white lily's soul when heaven melted in moonstruck sight; I'll miss you, beyond love, my flower.

I really love the opening, great use of metaphors. "Feet basked in peace above earth" pieces like this shows how calm and beautiful love is, it's boundless.

Dear Hiya, ah this is such a touching and evocative nonet that flows with beautiful metaphors and descriptive diction. I love how you’ve written this, and i felt so much especially as i read “ longing to be born like breaths of gold honeysuckle petals“ that made me feel so much and also “ life sighed in crisp embers of faith” sigh! Made me sad. Sometimes some are meant to be angels, above the cruelty on this earth, for me this nonet depicts loss but also shows love and loss. Congratulations

So poignantly sad, Hiya, with your signature images like "cream daisy," "fate smeared silence," "heaven melted in moonstruck sight." This is grief mixed with a tender farewell so beautifully expressed. Congratulations on your POTD. Sending you blessings of comfort.

Dear Hiya, life is found in blooming heartbeats. Which is beautiful in every way. Until, "smeared silence," leaves an emptiness inside. Your thoughts caress gently around me and my heart. Moments and memories remain, of those gone on before us. Congratulations on Poem of the Day. My best to you. Hugs, Brandy
