I’ve never written poetry
But I could write a million verses about you
The way you comfort me when I’m sad
Or hold me when I’m feeling blue
The way you crack a joke
Just to see me smile
I’d walk the earth for our love
Go the extra mile
The first time I saw you
Everything else in the room melted away
Soon those deep dark secrets
Turned a muted shade of gray
When you first looked at me
With those beautiful brown eyes
My heart skipped a beat
I let down my disguise
You’re a breath of fresh air
In this crazy ride of life
I can’t wait for the day
That I will be your wife
I’ve never written poetry
But one thing remains true
I’ve become a better person
Just by knowing you

The Fairy Dance
Introduction This image made me think of Irish and Welsh mythology, so I have decided on an ekphrastic casbairdne for the form, which, although quite short, is a very difficult form, and this is my first attempt. I did find this very hard, but hopefully I made it work.

FPS: The Last Flame Challenge Winners
Welcome to our first Winners Announcement of the year and to the final challenge in the Fall Poetry Series. The Last Flame invited writers to sit with endings, using fire as a central image to consider what remains when something burns out: ash, warmth, memory, silence, or the faint promise of what comes next. The strongest pieces treated endings as gradual rather than sudden, allowing them to flicker, dim, and linger.
