Written For My Honey: To Bee Or Not To Bee

I thought to write a Short Story… then thought, what if my story required more? Then thought to write a long story...and thought, what if my long story dragged-on to just bore? So, I gave more thought to writing...and concluded, with a hefty purchase at the local bookstore. I don’t know good poetry… but have written enough bad poetry -- to have learned great poetry!

Honey and bee go together. Any act to please your honey, writing a story or poem or gifting a book, in itself is a great gesture!

Yes, lots of buzzing in our little hive. Fortunately, we are both artists by nature, and relate our art though strong, spiritual ties. So, the age now, with dependency more on patience and kindness toward the other, it has make our relationship even stronger.

I love what you did there so cool and so engaging too, i would say i dont think i write poetry i write emotions, and some may call them poetry. But i call them my echoes of my heart. Its always so good to read your work and i think you write very well , seamlessly whatever you write, and that makes your poems worthy of a read more than once! Absolute pleasure visiting you today. Sending you light always

First off, I love your writing! You write Truth...and without it, there is no poetry, great or otherwise. Blessings my friend.

- Short stories are fine - Long poems, I easily lose interest ... I like short poems that don't bore the reader and say a lot between the lines :) - You are a skilled "poet" Joe :) - Thank you so much for the "fave" on my poem today...I really appreciate it :) - hugs

No, thank you...for sharing such fine art with us. I understand the living, the joy pain and suffering that goes into great poetry. Blessings my friend.
