I think it is, yes! My genre knowledge in poetry is not great, but it felt like I’m writing a poem. I love it, though, because is new, and free-writing and liberating for me. 😊
Thank you so much, Siodhna! “Transcended” is a perfect word to describe how I felt when I listened to Be Water, My fried, and the images simply appeared in my mind. I’m sure you’ve experienced this almost semi-conscious state of mind when perception, words and images entwine. It’s magical, isn’t it? If only all my writing came from this place…
Yes, I have these moments in nature and with music. It's a force, sometimes gentle, other times more of a rush or clarity. Feels divine at times. My writing comes from this place too.
Lovely lovely lovely! I was a little worried to read this one just now because I’m working on a story that involves a lighthouse too right now, but that was a little silly of me.
I think there’s serendipity in this. The idea of writing this story was lingering in my mind, and when I saw The Sand Castle and the lighthouse there, I felt the nudge and there was no excuse 😊 Passing the good creative vibes on 🌬️😊
Thank you, Miles. I didn’t know the quote, but I’m sure it’s embedded in the music. “Empty your mind, be formless, shapeless like water… Be water, my friend.” It certainly has put me in the right state of mind, because I wrote it free, without any preconceptions. Quite liberating 😊
I close my eyes and I can feel the power and smell of the salty mist dance across the foreboding jagged rocks below…. thank you for the imagery. 🌊
Thank you, dear friend! It means so much to me that these images, music mirages, have reached you too! 🙏😊
It’s like a prose poem!

This is beautiful. And the music accompaniment. Transcendent.

It’s like music!❤️
It was inspired by music, indeed.✍️🎶Thank you, Nevena!
You did heed the muse, and look what you’ve done*•*
Yeah! 😄❤️ Thank you for your encouragement, Mahdi!
This is beautiful- love the accompanying music. Vivid and haunting.
I’m thrilled that you’ve liked it! Nothing more to hope for but share the mood and the images in this music. Thank you, Rosie 🙏
Lovely story. As a violist myself, appreciated the viola cameo lol
Beautiful prose Ronnie!
Thank you, Nancy! I’ve never written anything like it, and I’m over the moon that I could.
Wonderful!
"Be water, my friend" I wonder if the song title is inspired by the Bruce Lee quote?

Wow, such beautiful imagery. Easy to get lost in...
