INEBRIATED Inebriated full of air, the honeybees frolic and nip, devoid of worry and of care-- inebriated, full of air. Straight from the tree, we shared a pear, and then my girl yielded her lips, inebriated! Full of air, the honeybees frolic and nip. © selma

Thanks so much for reading, and happy national poetry writing month.
I’m a simple woman who dares to see the beauty in ordinary. I’d love to connect with you and like pen pals, I want something beautiful to blossom between us. Will you join me? Selma is my middle name. Its meaning—peaceful, complete, are euphoric affirmations I like to think of myself as having. They compliment the joy I feel when I write. I sincerely hope you decide to join me on my writing journey. I Wish You Miracles.

Destiny, dearest. So happy you thought it so. Blessings and happy writing.

I love the imagery that your poem creates in my mind, Selma. It’s beautiful. I also love your photos – all of them are so lovely, it’s difficult to choose a favourite; however, if I had to choose, it would be the ‘stitch in time’ photo. Sorry, I’ve missed some of your recent posts; I’ve just been so busy with having my grandchildren here and, since then, trying to chase my tail in order to catch up. I wish you well, my friend. Xx 🌼💞
Stitch in time is pretty. How precise the bug/bugs that made those holes! I’m amazed. One would think they carry a measuring stick. Thanks for reading. All the best to you, Ellie. xoxo
What a lovely & so sweet words use in poem. “Love the rhythm & imagery the poem. Wonderful photos.
Thanks, Raj. Glad you liked the rhythm and imagery.
Hey, Raj, did you ask about the photos? I’m concerned because it shows as anonymous. And I do not respond to anonymous comments. Is it you?
Forgive IF it’s not you. Blessings.
Yes, it’s Comments is mine. When I can comment on picture then I can’t fil the name & email.

What a sweet poem,Selma. Love the rhythm…’Inebriated,full of air…’ and the imagery.

I’ve been looking for you on the site but I find it so hard amidst the comments. Then you wrote a comment on my post, today and I found you. It’s always a pleasure to read you. XOXO.
It’s complicated— that Disqus I cannot find my way around. And on phone, forget it. Drives me crazy. 📱 A stress I don’t need.
Be well. Happy writing.
I’m so glad you understand. I thought I was the only one with the problem. Wishing you a very happy and blessed Easter Sunday, Selma❤️
This is so delightful!
Thanks, my friend. I went off prompt. I just read yours. Brilliant. Your story asserts how we are never alone.
Off prompt is good. What I love about this month is that it pushes me to try new ways of writing.
That was so sweet, Selma! 😉 I loved it!
