I talk of the angels
And you point out the wires
When I’m feeling fragile
You make me feel inspired
You help me believe
In the things I can’t see
When I’m feeling weary
You offer reprieve
You show me the magic
In the curve of your smile
When things get sporadic
You hold me like a child
When I need attention
You offer applause
Is it too much to mention
You’re like the wizard of Oz
Taking me to the clouds
In a hot air balloon
Soaring above the ground
Hanging out under the moon
Falling into the notion
Love is not a façade
Pulling me in like the ocean
Or the mighty hand of God

WARNING. I will be tapping into one of your favorite creative tensions: The absurdity of humans worshipping their glowing rectangles as if they were tiny oracles. There’s something deliciously poetic about that contradiction, and it lends itself beautifully to an instructive proviso.

Oh this is so beautiful and romantic. I really liked this poem, great work
I find this poetically romantic ❤️
Oh Kelli. This is fantastic. Well done.
Dear Ki - You've been 'In Front of the Scenes' every day so much that I think your 'alter ego' is wearing your fingertips off. I can't imagine, you as an 'observational writer' - have the time to observe all of your topics - you're terrific. btw; "To Be Loved ~ Oh what a feeling ~ Someone to care ~ Someone to share lonely hours during moments of despair." - My Respect - Jk.in.l.a.
Whoaaaa, this was stunning! Loved it!
ohhh! I need one of those, did they throw out the mold on that model. Lovely, lovely ode to joy.
A beautiful ode. Kelli
This is pure and beautiful Kelli! 💖💖💖
