Hi Wist!! I really like the anemone poem, I think you made the emotions very vivid by relating them to a physical feeling. I also love the use of switching in and out of italics, it maes the feeling of two different voices, but one overall purpose.
you lean on my shoulder
and i hold your heart as it weeps
it feels foreign in my hands

I love love love this line, there's something so heartbreaking about holding someone's heart in your hand, I love the metaphor <3

Awesome writing, I can't wait to read more of your poetry! ^^

You are rocking NaPo! Congratulations on already writing so much fantastic material in the first week! Love the lens of flower varieties and how you let that be a loose / flexible theme for your work. The graphics are lovely and make the thread seem cohesive and united. My favorite poem so far is "Lavender" where you go through the different sleep cycles - ah! love the creativity and execution and there's like a gentle but foreboding vibe of that whole poem that leaves an eerie feeling at the end of reading it.

Keep up the lovely work, you're doing absolutely amazing and I am certainly enjoying reading along!
