Happy Friday! Today is the last day to vote!

On By Lauren Scott, AuthorIn Nominations & Awards, Poetry

As I stated in my previous post, I am honored that my poem “Chilling Embrace” is nominated, and today is the last day to vote for Publication of the Month at Spillwords Press. I hope you’ll support me!

Here is the link: https://spillwords.com/vote/ and you’ll have to log in to vote.

Thanks SO much to you who have already voted! My heart is full of gratitude regardless of the outcome!

And Thank You to Dagmara and her team for offering their site as a home for my poetry!

Chilling Embrace

I have been embraced
by the chilling presence
of loneliness.
I have wondered
where the niche
designed for me
exists in this world
in which my breaths
originate.
I have waited
for the glow
to emerge from
behind the shadows.

But when I take
that wise step
into the splendor
of nature,
listen to the trees
whisper their sagacity,
feel the flowing rivers
move my pain,
creating vast distance
between it and me,
I have been revived
by the compassion
that nature offers
so unselfishly.

  8. Win or lose, it reads like a Publication of the Month winner to me. Love the imagery and how it puts into words, nature’s wonderful power of reviving us. Makes me want to throw in the towel for the day and head out into the woods in the rain!

      1. Oh my gosh, Michelle, it’s so good to see you! Thank you for the wishes and for popping in here. No worries! You could’ve been thinking about shoes (Uggs)! 🙂 I hope all is well! I’m still here after 12 years. Crazy! ❤️🤗
