Summer Fantasy
poem included in my book Passions: Love Poems and Other Writings (Vita Brevis Press, April 2020) available on Amazon here
my eyes are water wells
mirroring your body
into a time which shrinks
my lips shine on stained glass
windows to the sea
a virgin violin
faints into your lap
sick with jealousy
the summer hangs in trees
seduction
fantasy

@Gabriela Marie Milton
As soon as I read the poem my mind flashed to Emily Dickenson.
Oh, I am humbled by your words. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
Wowww 😍😍😍
Thank you Joe. Lots of love right back to you.
You too G!
Thank you Joe.

This has always been a favorite! xoxo
Thank you so much. I am glad you like it. And thank you for your support. Are you going to write to me? 🙂
I will likely send something along for consideration and trust that our friendship will not color your editorial eye. I did not want to impose on your new venture or our connection without an invitation. Or did you mean, am I going to write you the love letter I have been composing since we met? 🌹💖🌹
Please send a poem. I am all business.
Oh, the love letter. I’ll read it with you by my side when the Indian summer comes. I love Indian summers up North. 🙂
Beautiful Gabriela 🌺 I look forward to reading your new book! 😊
Thank you so much Ingrid. That really humbles me and touches my heart too. You are a true friend.
xoxo
You’re welcome 😊
Wonderful words you’ve penned, my friend ~ have a pleasant day Gabriela 😊🌹
Thank you Phil. You too. Enjoy your Sunday.
xoxo
Really beautiful poem, Gabriela.
Thank you so much Timothy. Sending everyone purrs and treats. Are you going to send me a poem?
Here’s th lyrics to a song I’m working on:
Canonical Day
By Timothy Price
Bombed at Vigil
kitties in the night
Martins listens
Owls
Hoot under moon’s light
Lauds wakens Dawn
Throw off covers
Colors spread
Reds, pinks, yellows
Tugs on sun lights blue skies
Primetime rise
Face another day
Lost in ironic phases
Teeth comb hair
Sad and pretty faces
[Chorus]
Sacred routines never fail
Hundreds, ten, thousand times
Begins each day a blessed right
Immortality of the whole
[RAP]
Terce it all coffee’s cold
Virtual whistles blow
Tap on keys, boxes packed,
Phone music
Plays on hold
Sext at last
Satisfies
Food fantasy
Peanut butter tofu chicken
Thirty minutes of ecstasy
Nones dear coffee’s gone
Eyelids weigh a tonne
Ninth hour sleepy time
For Heaven’s sake stay awake
[Chorus]
Sacred ways never fail
Hundreds, ten, thousand times
As each day goes by some insane
Immortality of the whole
Vapors rise at vespers
Dinners hot-cold served
Debates circles tables
World made right
For an instance
Compline pulls on covers
Sun tucked in welcomes night
Bedtime lost videos play
Medianoche greets another day
[Chorus]
Sacred darkness never fails
Hundreds, ten, thousand times
Conjures spirits Ether
Immortality of the whole
Great. Can you send me me the song/video together with the lyrics ? No rush but do send it please.
I have finished the recording the song. I will probably post the song on my blog when I get finish recording it.
I am writing to you now.
I can find your email anymore. Can you contact me at gabrielamariemilton@gmail.com please?
Okay. What I meant is that I have not finished recording the song.
That’s ok. When you finish could you please get in touch with me?
It’s like music for me some of us are the audience
Appreciating song or poetry
That was beautiful
Marty, thank you so much. It means a lot to me you think so.
xoxo
Seems all responses see your talent
Oh, that’s so sweet of you to say 🥰🌹❤️🥰🌹❤️
My blog can be so serious
But we all crave approval
And people to like what we write
Indeed, that is mostly true Marty. And your blog is fantastic,
Now I thank you for your gratitude
We journey on this earth together not in competition
Took me many years to understand this
I am so glad you said that. My parents taught me so when I was a child.
xoxoxo
My
Dad
Taught me the opposite
I had to be twice
As
Good as every other boy playing sports
So I realized
We
Are
On this path together in my 60’s
But I found my way
That last sentence makes me happy. Lots of love to you.
xoxo
As Brad, I must agree one of my favorites too. Beautiful imagery and provocatively delicious Beautiful Button. Sending love and jasmine in silk lined cans as it is blooming on the land and it’s smell will go lovely with your lovely poem.

❤️❤️❤️🤗🥰🥰honeybun
Honeybun, you responded. Thank you again for your kind words and love. Sorry I am so slow on answering to comments but I hurt my right shoulder and it’s very difficult for me to write. I did more writing than I should have yesterday. Please know I read and appreciate everything. Sending love 🌹❤️🥰🌹❤️
Oh I am sorry your shoulder is hurt. Thanks for mentioning it I will pray for quick healing. I know you work so hard I honestly don’t know how you ever keep up and yet you do and continue to create more beauty in the world. Sending you much love and I will be praying your healing is quick. Love you Beautiful Button.
Honeybun ❤️🤗😘🥰🙏🙏
Thank you sweetheart 🥰❤️🌹
You are so welcome Button. 🤗❤️😘🙏🙏
Beautifully seductive.
Thank you Bo. You ok sweetie?
My foot’s better. But my mom got sick, and I worry. There’s always sth, isn’t there?
I am so sorry to hear about your mom. Let’s hope she is going to get better soon. Please keep me posted.
“There’s always sth, isn’t there?” Are you kidding me? Yesterday I went the first time – after a long time- to the gym. I hurt my right shoulder. I screamed in pain the entire day. I can’t even talk about this. It’s horrible. I type only with my left hand and the pain it’s killings me.
Jesus, Gab. My nan would say, it’s as if we had thrown stones at god.
Stop typing. Relax more.
yeah, it’s unbelievable. I am going to take a brake soon. I hope your mom gets better.
xoxo
Please do. (I do hope myself.)
🌹❤️
,,Gabriella BRAVO, so much fantasy, beauty, my eyes were ancient vacuum cleaners, which sucked out of the page and cleaned all your words into me, thanks, unforgettable cleaning! Great ! ”
This first occurred to me when I read your poem … it was suddenly in me.
Your comment took my breath away. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your unbelievable comment. I am truly humbled.
Love this!!!
Thank you 🌹
I am big fan of classic literature and when I read your poem it reminds me of that. Amazing poem dear 🤗😊.
Thank you so much sweetheart. I hope you are doing well 🤗🥰❤️🌹
Yes we are doing well, in lockdown. My husband was not well last month but now he is perfectly fine. Thank you so much for asking. How are you doing?
I am so glad he is well now and everyone is safe. Sending you lots of love. I am ok sweetheart thank you for asking. Please stay well.
xoxoxo

🥰❤️🌹
Oh how beautiful. It is so so rich and luxuriant. I really love this piece of poetry Gabriela.
“my eyes are water wells
mirroring your body”
Unbelievably beautiful and exceptionally well thought.
I love how it narrows down to the two simple words in the end. I am more than speechless. Continue to mesmerise.
You are adorable, thank you very much. Your words are silk. What would I do without you.
Sending love and please stay safe.
xoxo
You are absolutely welcome G. I hope you’re feeling better now. Say hi to Maya for me.
Oh, my ankle is much better thank you. I just hurt my should when I went to the gym yesterday. That’s life. Maya… Did I tell you I have two kitties now? Mr. Churchill is a new addition to the family 🙂
Oh no. How is it now? Better take care of yourself.
Now that’s wonderful. Is Mr Churchill the same kind as that of Maya?
It’s not good but it’s going to get better. Thank you for asking. Maya is a Tonkinesse cat. He is just a tuxedo cat 😊 😊😊
Well done, Gabriela.
Thank you Mark 🌸
