Pinned
When she saw the thistle
not as a violet crown
but as a fortress of needles,
the tether slipped away
folding into the forgiving earth.
The air around her cried,
each tear holding
autumn’s falling leaves.
She carries no seed of anger,
no ghost of regret,
only the bone deep #delight
of freedom

Twilight's hour is upon me
Glinting of faint stars
Against the blanket of #purple
Marks the fading of the first day
Into the deep darkness
Of the first night
This new beginning fills me
With undeniable excitement

There is a #delight in starting over, taking the positives from the past & letting go of the rest. A fresh year opens its arms, welcomes you. In them are endless possibilities. May you find happiness, health & kindness and endless creativity for stories in 2026. Happy New Year #vss365 community.

Disintegrated Doubts

My disintegrated doubts
are no resolution of delight
no promise to revivify

My disintegrated doubts
are a reclamation
of uncharted territory

"Look at the crime scene,Sholmes"

"I'm looking at it Hatson"

"Nothing's wrong here"

"That's the problem"

"You're certain?"

"Yes, Hatson. It's Geriarty..."

"But there's nothing..."

"He delights in flawless emptiness, Hatson"

A subtle smile,
An expectant glance to you,
Delight is to come.

In longings,
a sense of belonging,
departures from reason,
half-truths
almost lies.

An unsold story
quietly dies

What is life?
A trifle, yet mundane,
a tender ache
learning to rise

Distant vibrations linger,
in solitude we search for
small stimulants of #delight

When hope died, the world turned... silent.
Athena layed down her arms without delight. Her heavy heart sunk like the sun at dusk. In the darkness, a force older than the Gods...

"I got a little face and a pair of brown eyes. All I'm here to do, ladies, is hypnotise..." Nora heard from the bathroom. She smiled. Bob singing Rapper's #Delight into his hairbrush, meant that 2026 was already off to a good start.

Iridescent light gives birth to tortured dreams.
Dancing with #delight they revel in the furling of the sails.
Rising up from deep below the waves
borne on salty tear filled seas.
They sail across oceans of weeping souls
Into the bleakness of her grey.
Where you can hear their crying wails.

My nephew Christopher hasn't been seen since December 10th. He is a big man, receding grey hair, 5ft7in tall. Please tell Nottinghamshire Police if you have seen him in the last few weeks.

Silently calming my storm

She writes to slow the hand of ending, shaping what must pass with attention rather than fear. #Delight here is less happiness than freedom: the right to choose a line, a tone, a way of going on. It steadies what she gives to time, leaving behind a gesture. Hopefully kind.

Delve in poetry...
Delicious #delight to clean your palates
Scrumptious ideas that whet your creative appetite
Share your prose
There's more room to share with all of us...

The normal amount
Of #delight fell
Like snow showers
Blanketing
Every void
And crevice
We scurried
From one to the next
The desire to stay
Behind the scenes
Greater than
Our curiosity
We found joy
In the creation
Writing each scene
Manipulating worlds
And left the rest
For you
To perform

Delight slips through unannounced with morning hues of blue.

Welcoming its presence for a new year.

Nissa yawned, rubbing her eyes. Stretching tiny arms over her head, gossamer wings unfolded gently and she felt great #delight in the power returning. Rising winds lifted the fire fae’s flame red hair, filling her with ecstasy and long forgotten joy. Today, all she wanted to do was fly.
