Cuddles & Poetry
Added 2019-03-27 21:00:00 +0000 UTC
Come take a nap with me.
I'll hold you close, keep you safe...
and whisper poetry in your ear until you fall asleep...

β£ Belonging - Eileen Carney Hulme
β£ If I Thought - Dana Schwartz
β£ Baby When You Hold Me - Shelagh Bullman
Be still my heart π This is so achingly sweet *sigh*

So today is a hard anniversary for me; and Iβve been heartsore and exhausted and weepy all day and this is so sweet and comforting and loving and exactly exactly exactly what I needed to hear today. I cannot express how much. Thank you, G.β€οΈβ€οΈβ€οΈ

I forever melt when you say angel, it's so so cute. I just want to physically wrap myself up in this audio. I feel so soft and loved. You are just the sweetest β€β€β€

I took that like someone having a thought hiccup. Like maybe he got distracted and had to backup to finish the thought.

There's a teeny editing glitch at around 2.12... 'Do you want to hear some..' is repeated twice. It's no biggie, though, this was lovely!

Even the German swans are crazy AFπππ but it was a cute storyπ I remember it very wellππΌπ

The world is vast thousands of kilometers, the universe is infinite,
but all I need tonight is a small space between my chest and your shoulder, where the head can rest,
where I can listen to our love that breathes calmly.

I feel loved after hearing this audio β€β€β€
Loved all the poetries you've recited but the last poetry was amazing! It comes from the heart. From a loving man.
Thanks very much for recording it so well and for sharing with us!

It's been gone for me for a few days already π£ the community page still works though. You can access it via the browser by adding /community. I don't know about the App though, since I don't use it.

sorry to burge in off topic but does anyone else not see the community tab? it's not appearing for me today :(

Do you know the story of the black swan named Petra, who lived in Germany and who fell in love with a swan-shaped boat? She appeared one day on a lake and started following the boat for two years. They even shared their winter quarter cause she didn't want to leave the boat.

More of this, please! It was so relaxing and beautiful. I tried my hardest to fall asleep but the burning in my chest from how sweet you are was too much. π₯°β€οΈ
2019-03-28 15:29:25 +0000 UTC
This was so, so lovely. It relaxed me so much I fell asleep last night before the end of the audio. Listened again this morning to hear it all.
I loved this. I could listen to you recite poetry all day. β€
2019-03-28 13:32:44 +0000 UTC

2019-03-28 09:52:55 +0000 UTC
I just want you to tell us lovely poems like this all the time. β€ That voice, man. The way you use it. Please and thank you. π
2019-03-28 07:58:31 +0000 UTC
Absolutely sweet and beautiful π’
2019-03-28 07:03:36 +0000 UTC
This was so nice!

"We never really slept, we just buried the clocks in the sanctuary of the night" ββ€ Happy hearts, happy hearts with the perfect poem to end β€β€
2019-03-28 03:51:56 +0000 UTC
I've honestly been into a lot of poetry and spoken word recently, so this was placed timely. π
2019-03-28 03:51:44 +0000 UTC
Iβve never really been into poetry either, and much of it makes me feel a bit glum π₯Ί But one type of verse I can always get behind is the dirty limerick!<br><br><i>There once was a young Irish rapper<br>Who thought himself really quite dapper<br>He was quite elated<br>'Til Swifty deflated<br>And now heβll never get to tap her</i><br><br>And since that limerick was terrible, here are some better ones I pulled off the Internet! π€π<br><br><i>I have been on dozens of larks
I like it indoors, not in parks
You feel more at ease
Your ass doesnβt freeze
And strollers donβt make snide remarks
There was a young lady named Claire
Who had a magnificent pair
Or so thatβs what I thought
'Til I saw one get caught
On a thorn, and start to lose air
Whatβs the worst you can say after sex?
Such a question continues to vex.
But youβll be a loner
With this little boner:
βYouβre not even as good as my ex.β</i>

This really went to a deep place in my heart β€β€Swans are the symbol of the city I live in and I have always loved them. Such majestic creatures. We have a lake full of them here. This poetry was divine. β€β€β€πβ€β€β€π
2019-03-28 03:01:38 +0000 UTC
I need to know where do these poems come from ? πβ€
2019-03-28 01:57:28 +0000 UTC
As much as I respect the works and the people who write them, I have never been able to really get into poetry. But...I don't know what it is or how you do it, but when you recite poetry, I become interested in it π All four were beautiful, but 'If I Thought' and 'Baby, When You Hold Me' were my favorites (you're making a romantic out of me, bud) π

Beautiful. Just absolutely beautiful. You reignited my love of poetry. Embarrassingly, I cried a little. β€οΈ

The perfection in this was stunning
Too good to be true
Words will never be enough
To say how we feel about you β₯οΈβ₯οΈ
2019-03-27 22:00:10 +0000 UTC
Only Yeats could reconcile me with swans. I swear, they're as evil as geese π
This audio sounds like a perfect dream β₯οΈ

« If I Thought » by Dana Schwartz is so beautiful:
If I thought for just one moment that this would be my last breath,
I'd tell you I'll love you forever, even beyond death.
If I thought for just one moment that your face would be the last I'd see,
I'd take a million pictures and save them just for me.
If I thought for just one moment that your voice would be the last I'd hear,
I'd listen attentively and promise not to shed a tear.
If I thought for just one moment that your touch would be the last I'd feel,
I'd embrace you and know that this has all been real.
If I thought for just one moment that my heart would beat its last beat,
I'd thank the Lord for allowing us to meet...
πππ
Gael pls know that you have an amazing taste when it comes to music and poetry. This whole piece is amazing and I love every sec of it β€οΈ
