Velvet Whispers

         night drapes 
       like v e l v e t,
       your voice 
        wraps 
      o   u
      r         n
       a   d 
       my soul~
        like silk 
      PRESSED
       to skin.

Silent One Date: 5/8/2025 6:37:00 AM This is really creative Billie, you have taken the hiku trend to another level here... love the opening and ending to it.. great imagery...

Ink Empress Date: 5/8/2025 1:08:00 AM I find it so clever how you made the word " around" go around in circle! How creative of you sis! And the hiku is so evocative and has a dreamlike quality to it which makes me wanna fave this one! Best wishes!
