Poetic Moment #1
Just because it's not a poem, it doesn't mean it can't be ✨poetic.✨
When -
like the stars in a constellation -
you're able to connect the dots...
and suddenly,
everything makes beautiful sense. 🤍

Author's Note: I admit that I'm kind of cheating (again) for my post today.
This Poetic Moment was taken from my TikTok account and created by me awhile ago. I have many, many more Poetic Moments on my platform there that I plan to start posting to Vocal (TikTok is probably getting banned...😅...so I need to start backing up my material there, anyway!).
I don't consider these Poetic Moments to be poems. They are meant to be tiny, inspirational instances which have been captured in a jar and set on display to ponder. ☺️ That said, they are indeed "poetic" and I'm allowing them to count for my challenge! (My challenge, my rules! 🤗)

This is Poem #5 of my personal "Poem-a-Day" challenge. ☺️ Can I keep it up? We shall see. 🫣

Getting Serious About Comedy (Part I)
If I were asked to remark on my life and the childhood that paved some road leading me to this point, I would have to say something about all the funny people who surrounded me for the last 26,872 days (and counting). Somewhere along that road, I became a big fan of laughter and the comedy that spawns it – and, I mean not only my own laughter, but the laughter of others, some of which I have actually been responsible for inducing.

This beautifully illustrates the profound clarity and interconnectedness that can emerge when life's seemingly random moments align and reveal their true meaning.
Love the words and the images...
Ooo absolutely loving this poem!
love writing that makes me exhale and grin just a little wider... like this one
Oooo, that was so deep and so true! But to me, that's a poem hehehe. I loved it so much! About TikTok banned, is it really true? Is it a worldwide ban or certain countries?
You doing a great job 😁 keep them poems or even just poetic moments coming 👍🏾
The moment sticks.
Yeah, I've had several of those kind of moments before. However, I also have to discern whether or not those dots are actually related to each other or just some form of confirmation bias.
I like these! This is often how my poems start. Just a tiny poetic thought that can maybe be expanded upon. Maybe not. Great job, Gina!
