Thank you all for always supporting me, been having a bad migraine attack, so bad, that I havent been getting online but here now a little better and will try to read your poems today

when air-brushed stars croon.. my soul sways, tied to the moon lost in twinkling tune seeking for rose light from plum reveries tonight~ questioning twilight.. am I not fine art metered refrain to restart music of your heart.. but will rivers heed thoughts that stream in neon fields~ of teal auroras .. swirling and twirling… vinyl rhythms of warm astral~ spirits cloaked in sage… in silence, I dream in a bed of lilac clouds~ of you, me, and love..

IE, a very interesting poem about the flow of love and how much of what happens in this arena is unpredictable at its start. Sorry you are having a really bad headache. Years ago, I fell on a cure for migraines when I was having them (with lights and then pain on the opposite side of the head). Doctors won't recommend it and many people can't take advantage of it for a variety of reasons. I wrote a limerick about it called Common Sense Corona on 07/14/2013.

"but will rivers heed thoughts that stream in neon fields" ....The poem is beautiful, but I particularly like the wordplay here. Very clever, Ink!

Dearest Inky, many congratulations on a very worthy POTD. Such a beautiful set of Senryu’s and I love the title too. So beautifully artistic and exquisite as always from you dear one. I adore all the wonderful lines but especially,’ lost in twinkling tune’ and the last Senryu. Truly scrumptious and gorgeously romantic! Makes you want to float up to be entwined with the moon. Loved it dear Inky. Inspires me to try and write one too. Hope you feel better soon. Luv and hugs to you xx
