This poem is so sensual and deeply intimate, I loved it so much! I love how you explore the connection between nature, femininity, and desire. The imagery of the human body as elements of the earth is so so magical✨

I also adore the personification of the earth as a lover and how you talk to her through this poem, "my lover earth, don’t be shy" and "you are mine, I shudder as you quake."🥹

The rhythm flows so well with all your lovely rhymes and the use of assonance and alliteration.

an ode to the cyclically, vulnerability, beauty, and openness of the earth and the feminine 🤍🤍

Thank you so much 🥹 You captured the essence of this poem so beautifully and with such care.

Yes, Earth as lover, the reminder that she isn’t just here to take care of us, but that we are here to take care of her also. The earth is the ultimate lover girl.

Thank you so much for your magical reflection of my poem 🪞It adds so much and I feel so understood. I treasure you 🌱🌷

I love this poem so much! And I love the idea of the earth as a lover! She does give us absolutely everything and takes care of us with skies of rain and fields of abundance! What human could do more! I love our dear earth so much, and how you have captured how sensual our relationship with her truly is! ☘️💕💗💜🦋🌎🌍🌏🌈

Oh how I love hearing your voice Jennae! Mother earth as goddess, mother earth as lover, as provider, as life giver... the many facets of being in our feminine. I really love how you blend such beautiful words and create magic in moon flowers, in tulips pouring from our lips as we sing, in the rosebuds of your heart -- in essence it feels like we too can be mother earth, we too are nature personified 🌹🌘🦋

What a stunning love poem to earth and nature, written in the language of flowers, rhyming with the heartbeat of rain, dew, and lunar shine :') It was such a treat to read this right after "queendom reclaimed" - I feel like they are poetry soul sisters!

Aww thank you beautiful Suyin!! I definitely feel like any love letters we send to the earth should be written in flowers. The love language the earth and us both speak. They are definitely soul sisters and I’m so glad you could feel that.

Thank you so much for reading!! 🩷🌷

Love this 🌺 nature and art and spirituality can all be so sensual and soft and I think it’s so easy to forget that especially in hyper masculine paradigms and modes of thought, so thank you for this!

Wow, this is gorgeous and fulfilling. I feel embraced and shaken in the best way. It is such a delight for the universe to discover itself ("because I am you" as you pointed out) in these playful, enriching ways. Your assonant words capture that connection so gorgeously, from your delicate reading to the beautifully centered italics. Details matter, and you nailed them all.
