Stormy Nights

Oh mother come soothe me
ComeĀ make war with air
Pound on my window
With punches and drums
Lay me with lullabies
Frenzied in rage
I've need of your mad storm
To rip through the page

Of today

Marionette, you amaze me with your beautiful, mysterious, words. You portray such feeling using minimal verbiage. You’re great! I wish I could do that. Brilliant! M.

Matthew you seriously underestimate your own work... perhaps you are not aware of the deep emotions conveyed in your own work. Be aware. Because your writing is aching beautiful. (nit the mad stuff cos that's just relatably mad lol)Ā 
thankyou you kind man ...hugs x

To sit on the kitchen table and just let it all out, I know how special it is to you dear Marion, come make war with air, that's a wonderful line, it's a beautiful piece filled with emotion and then your two last lines, oh how I wish my own mother could be here to do this with me some days. 🌹 ā¤ļø

Aw love... that line feels so tragic to me
I truly feel your loss.
to yearn for your mam by your side to witness and honour your own works of artĀ  and also toĀ  experience the freedom of emotion that poetry brings.
I am.tempted to say she is right there just above your shoulder but won't. Because platitudes irritate the shit out of me and so I won't inflict them on you. I'll just say
I hear you.Ā  Ā Thankyou and hugs to you X
Will catch up with yours later...

I hope she is  and no when someone like you say such things it's for comforting and I appreciate that so much, but yes I agree it depends on who says it to me, I know you mean it with love. Thank you. 🌹

Well she delivered last night! That was a storm conjured if ever there was!

Dear Marion, what a clever, clever writer you are. This little poem is pure genius. Oh how it flows it begins and flows as inocently as a sweet little nyrsery rhyme. From the second line down its clear it is an alternative nursery rhyme. And I love it! Awesome xx
