BLACKBERRY WINTER

I like the simple pleasures of life:
The first bite into a ripe fruit, freshly plucked
from an overhanging branch
that was almost out of reach.
All you had to do was stand on the tip of your toes.

I like looking at the moon
through photographs you took.
How the angles tilt differently
from how I normally would see it.
How you artistically include the silhouette
of leaves from an unseen tree to frame each shot,
knowing I would mention it
and we’d have something new
to talk about in the next couple of minutes.
How I wish we could stretch this moment to an eternity.

- L. V.

L. V., i found this poem collecting dust in one of your old photographs

How do you overcome the terror of your art being known?

Knowing that I am unknown.

You're too kind, thank you! And YOU write so beautifully. Will be going through everyone's poetry as soon as I find free time—with my cup of tea.

Do you have any poets whos stuff you think i should give a read?

ABSOLUTELY!

First and foremost, everything that @randomshowerpoems has written himself. And @literaryvein has AMAZING poems as well. @most-ment too. And @accordingtolauren .

Then. Robert Frost, Harry Baker, Gregory Orr.

Would you like some individual poems as well?

Detail of "Distant Thunder"
by: Andrew Wyeth, 1961

In my neighbourhood, the man who wanted to die lived to be a hundred and two.

In my neighbourhood, the man who wanted to live died yesterday.

grief makes you want to die every single day. but you don’t.

Tulips in a Milk Carton (detail)
Paul Wonner, 1989

you go on with what’s left of your life. you make the bed every morning.

you take out the trash. you buy your weekly groceries.

and as you inspect which milk carton looks the least wonky,

you realise this is how to kill yourself without breaking your mother’s heart—

you go on with what’s left of your life.

L. V., i found this poem grieving in aisle 3
