mango scented love story
. dedicated to you… o3.1o.2oo9 . i planned to do a drawing today / but a dream seeped in through a button hole / and brought the constellation / the broken moon / and the river along… so / i made a sandwich with them… and i’ll have a half for my lunch / and the other half for my dinner… : ) .
Sometimes, before the sultry night air / caresses the sycamore trees to their / slumber, I can hear them whispering / in the muted emerald …
When I forget about myself, my troubles, my needs, and really listen to the world around me…
*_I have been waiting for a moment like this / you snuggled your head onto my shoulder / snogging on the shore / one special kiss / under th…
dedicated to all lovers!!!!
Go on. Open it, sweet one. I dare you.
i’ve been reading virigina woolf and emily dickinson lately. Her breast is fit for pearls, / But I was not a `Diver’ - / Her brow is fit for thrones / But I have not a crest. / Her heart is fit for home - / I – a Sparrow – build there / Sweet twigs and twine / My perennial nest. - Emily Dickinson there were a few things that inspired these words on this blustery rainy day: Writing Workshop’s Exercise Four white witch, black heart / Mariposa, / I bet no-one’s called you that since we lived in our shack by the sea with olive trees and peeling green shutters; when you twirled fire, I painted the sun and all we needed was lemons, salt, and Jose Cuervo. / I wouldn’t miss your launch. / Where was he today? / I don’t care about him. / Here I am. / Does he know you howl at quarter moons? Does he know you drew constellations in black ink on my skin? Do you remember us… cocooned in our chrysalis of tangled salty dreams and coffee-creamed skin? / Your words betray you, my love. Why is your book full of love letters to a girl who wears my middle name and has a scar along her jawline, just like me? / I know that when you come out to your car, you’ll search for this scrap of paper under your windscreen wipers. You’ll hate yourself for it but that’s what you’ll do. / Here I am. copyright © 2008, Holly Ringland. a few days after writing this piece, i stumbled across leith o’malley and his space here on redbubble. when i came upon the mesmerising black butterfly. it was like finding my words and Grace’s heart freshly plucked and arranged in a vase of charcoal and magic.
to ease things just a little.

He gave me 10,000 promises / And I thought he will keep them / But one day he gave me a yellow rose / And said sorry time to dash off

OK my friends….believe it or not…. / This is the very first poem I ever wrote in my entire life. / Was a long time ago and written to Liz, ( the girl in / “Like Leaves We Touched” ).

Here we were in Rome, like lost angels in a ruined paradise!
On every flower that shuts its sweet eyes / In timely sleep. Let thy west wind sleep on / The lake; speak silence with thy glimmering eyes,
