Always with the hope wrapped in dark tones. You capture that true light in all the stories of old, in my opinion. But that dark, bitter flavour that I am addicted to in poetic art remains always. Thanks for sharing, Julie.

This is so tender, so achingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing something so full of truth and feeling. You are still that shimmering soul, still full of light, still worthy of peace and safety. The bee will find you again, when you need her most—drawn to the sweetness you carry even in sorrow. You are not alone. You are loved, always.

I'm usually not a fan of fuzzy feel-good poetry but this just feels SO GOOD.

I felt like I was a kid again. Beautiful work, dear Julie.

There are a lot of layers to unpack here and I’m not sure I can say something new that hasn’t been said yet…Jozef put it best I think. This is absolutely lovely and I feel that much closer to you after reading this. Thank you for your vulnerability and sharing. Hope wrapped in dark tones, for sure! 💖
