I feel every layer of queendom reclaimed through this gorgeous poetic rewilding inspired by the overflowing lushness of nature! These are my absolutely favourite lines -

"Erupting with delight,

falling in love iridescently,

with all elements of herself

that are wild and serene."

I love how your poem captures the feminine beauty of the wilderness and becomes a mirror for the beauty of our own inner wilderness. Reading this just makes me feel so alive! Truly beautiful <3

Ohh! What a soft daydream it was to listen to you read this. There is so much beauty pouring out of this poem. Some of my favorite lines: falling in love iridescently, as water begins to fly/

and trees begin to rain, and Monarch naked in her splendour 💛

Awww thanks Joscelyne, I love that. So glad you like it 🙈 Thank you so much for reading!! 👑🌱

Such a lush, vivid celebration of self-love and the natural world, feels almost mystical!

I love all the metaphors, "tangles of verdant whimsy" and "iridescently falling in love," ahh🥰

The earth and ourselves have such a complex landscape that is both external and internal that we need to reclaim!

Such a lovely piece to remind us to be tender with ourselves and nature and return back to our own power and beauty💚

Thank you so much my beautiful Nadia! Yesss I love how when we consider tending to the earth we also need to consider tending to ourselves, it’s all related, we are nature.

Thank you so much for this lovely comment and thank you for being the first person to read this!! 👑🌻🌱
