Aubade’s playbill
Fantasy
Come true
Flirtatious green
Whispered
A mythical view
Flecks exposed
Electricity
How sparks flew
Feathered, appropriately
Crimson
Dusk’s favorite hue
Slivered porthole
Climaxed
Awesome blue
Dramatic sunset
Premiers:
Dreaming Of You
Now that is as romantic as a poem can get… As I was reading, I had thought I hit the crescendo with “Flecks exposed, Electricity, How sparks flew” but how wrong I was as the poem grew from there until that perfect ending… Wouldn’t it be nice if life worked as well as poetry π Beautiful work Audrey Dawn ~

Okay, your comment is amazing!! I’m a sucker for romance. I’m over the moon. It’s official. You are far too kind, and once again, you’ve made me blush. Maybe life does work as well as my poetry, ever stop to think about that, Mr. Collis? π I love it when you call me Audrey Dawn…smirk. Seems as though you’re trying to seduce me, Sir. Giggle. Or I you…semantics! π

Hi, Willow. Thank you. .. I was sorting all the emotion and words flying through me. I had a heavy vibe running through me and it held on for dear life. I think I’m meant to write something important soon, so I was taking some time to reflect. All was good, I just couldn’t express myself. Hope that doesn’t sound too strange. I’m glad I was missed. I appreciate you saying so…

Aww. Thank you for missing me. I missed being here, too. My world is okay and I’m always smiling. However, sometimes, I have too many thoughts wanting a say and I have to shut down. Process what I need to say and decipher between what is appropriate to share and what isn’t. Mostly, what I can handle talking about and what I’m not brave enough to admit. Self vs control….more than anything I need everything I share to the authentic and real, so in turn, I wait. Patiently. Write and draw a lot and focus on truth and not negative inner chatterings that want in to discourage me. I think we can all relate.
Glad you liked the poem. The blue drew me in… Enjoy your weekend. xx

Don’t get the wrong idea — I get rattled by plenty of things, and plenty of times. And I’ve come to see that as it can be good. More interesting than being even-keeled all of the time — which would probably be boring π
