Aw Hayley, I felt this. Beautifully written but so much truth and I am sure many can relate. You take care and maybe try to give you a little attention every now and then 🤍

Awesome piece Hayley, the formatting adds so much to the piece. It’s visually gorgeous as well as the writing. Really great stuff.

Bloody hell, this packs a punch in all he best ways. Sums it up pretty much I think!

Wow, wow. I agree with Celia, this is quite the punch. Really exquisite work here Heather.

I really enjoyed this one, and I’m glad you paired the song, it was a good companion to this piece. Really beautiful flow and rythm, nicely done!

So many beautiful lines in this one Heather, Beautiful things make me cry too. I really loved the ideas and the sense of moments of hope and freedom. The music also paired so well with it! Perfect choice!

I love pairing music and poems together, while I am already in love with the words I want to listen and read a couple more times!
Just got done on my second read with the music playing and it really gave the words so much depth as I read; I feel like I really relate to being sensitive to the good and bad and you captured that amazingly here!

Simply beautiful, but I think I already told you that. P.S. I’m still trying to work my way back to finding some inspiration.

This is so hauntingly beautiful and so, so sad. Your descriptions ons of the jelly are stunning as are the subtle details of the brush strokes 🤍

This is twisted, in a really great way. I immediately was attached to Sam. Your first paragraph was so strong, really brought me in. Nicely done!

This is one of those short stories that you think about long after you’ve finished reading. The pace, the character development – it hits on all cylinders.

Oh my…this was so frivilously fun until the sucker punch of the last line – that slapped me right in the face! Very true though, I use it a lot and hate that I do but its that western kinda thing we do to ourselves when we just wanna moan but have been programmed to not. I love your cover art so much also! Beautiful!

Grounding is an essential part of enjoying the simple things. I too have bunnies and they are eyeballing my romaine. Nice work and I love the lead image.

Ah felt this one. I often get annoyed at myself for not stopping enough and taking in the beauty around me. Well written and love that image!

Really nice, it’s so hard to stop for the small things especially now. The little things bring a lot of joy. This is such a good reminder.
