There's a peace in the cold and darkness A blessed silence in the soul Fearful in summer's comfort But recognized with joy In the gentle and Glittering light Of the first Falling Snow

Summer Apple

A nonet for the prompt “Summer” for GOetry Monday

@goodomensafterdark

(9) Shall I compare you to the summer?

(8) You are more ardent, fierce and hot!

(7) I melt in you like ice cream,

(6) let your heat seep through me,

(5) boneless beneath you.

(4) Tempt me, Summer,

(3) apple red,

(2) neath sky-

(1) blue!

“He couldn't see why people made such a fuss about people eating their silly old fruit anyway, but life would be a lot less fun if they didn't. And there never was an apple, in Adam's opinion, that wasn't worth the trouble you got into for eating it. “

~ book!GoodOmens

Aziraphale (who’s sky-blue-eyed POV this poem is in) may carefully, lovingly mock the first two lines of the world’s most famous sonett (18) by Shakespeare:

„Shall I compare thee to a summer’s day? 
Thou art more lovely and more temperate.“

It's another Five Words Good Omens-themed poetry challenge from @whickberstreetwriters!

Using the words astray, dust, laugh, sigh and smoke, I've done another nonet from Crowley's POV 💜

Caution, Still

In the dawning, the noon sun, the twilight sighs

In the daybreak, the dreaming, the stardust night

your laugh races, embraces, swooping around me,

like a white plume of smoke

I choke; hold my tongue -

astray I should stay.

Yet I'm forever

drawn to

you.

[salovie]

If I only had one “I love you”

and my whole long life to give it,

I’d give it to you today.

A hasty, precious choice,

but you should know that

my perfect joy

is soft, blue,

close to

you.

[alaraowowrites]

Exotic

It does not matter where you are from There are places you haven't been People to you are strangers But you're strangers to them No matter where you Go you'll always Be diff'rent To some One

[loveregrown]

I'll take gaybait over boring gay representation any day

Skill - Nonet

As I sit, writing, composing here I slowly begin to ponder: What if the reason I use comedic tendencies in my poetry is that I fear my lack of writing skill?

Translating NORN9: Hiyokos

Welcome back to “Translating NORN9”, where I translate NORN9 content!

Today I’m going to translate the Hiyoko Page. As a bit of trivia, all of the Hiyokos share thier VAs with the main characters

The Hiyokos living in Norn

These hiyokos take care of the personal belongings of those who board the Norn. However, no one knows their identities.

Pu Hiyoko

A solid Hiyoko who is good at cleaning rooms. When the bath is ready, she may come directly to notify the passenger.

Hiyoko?

A white Hiyoko made by Natsuhiko and powered by AI. Using the green board it has, it acts as Mikoto's caretaker while having a conversation.

Mine to Solve

A labyrinth of passing minutes

eating away my precious time

among fitful intervals

no one seems to control,

least of all myself,

a strange surprise

unforeseen

startling

me.

NaPoWriMo #25: A poem about a superhero

Those watching the hero's awesome flight Envying his freedom and grace Can't fathom the loneliness Far above Earth's embrace Or know the relief Of gravity Bringing him Safely Home

[serenitypoetry]

Human Heart

A question I should have never seen,

Another fragile human heart.

Progression through photographs;

Hurt when I see it stop.

Pink stains the metal.

Take me with you.

Human heart;

No beat.

Gone.

[angie-words]

It's Five Words Friday in the @whickberstreetwriters poetry challenge! We selected five words and I, of course, took the opportunity to write something (very slightly) smutty-adjacent 😏

I chose to write a nonet poem incorporating: dew, ink, hunger, feral and wanton

Marginalia

Etching memories with ink, pages testify to our tale

of clandestine sojourns. But unwritten is the hunger

of which I can leave no trace:

craving the touch of dew-brushed skin;

how I ached to enscribe

desperate, wanton need deep

upon wanting lips;

my feral

adoration

[salovie]

She heard us all root for warmth and light,

for the sun to win out and end

winter’s deadness. Jealously,

slipping straight to spotlight,

Moon had her moment,

sweet as can be:

“You can cheer

for me

too.”

[gay-poet-from-hell]

You shine like the sun on the ocean

Bright like the green leaves in summer

You are a god of nature

Shimmer like a river

Smile like the sun

Laugh like you’re all

I want and

Better

More
