Titled "Lake with Cypress" and was created by French artist Camille Bombois (1883-1970).

This oil-on-canvas painting captures a serene, sun-drenched river or lake flanked by towering cypress and deciduous trees, rendered with rich textures and delicate brushwork characteristic of French artist Camille Bombois. The composition draws the eye down a shimmering water channel where the soft afternoon light reflects across the ripples and lily pads, creating a tranquil, luminous atmosphere. In the distant background, hazy blue hills and hints of a small hillside structure evoke the peaceful, idyllic countryside of a classic European landscape.

Don’t know who wrote this — it was posted on Instagram by “Warpaint Journal” in April 2025 — but it’s making the rounds today and is pretty great. I dream of this too ❤️

Most people don't dream of being fancy-rich.
I dream of being rich enough to say, "Treat's on me," without thinking twice. Rich enough to have a home that feels like a hug, a fridge stocked like a five-year-old with adult money, and a tray of chocolates waiting for someone to grab. Rich enough to quietly help a friend before they even have to ask. To send a care package when someone's too tired to reach out. To buy all the pencils from a kid on the street so they can go home early. For me, the real money dream isn't about luxury - it's about having enough to give, enough to comfort, enough to turn ordinary moments into something extraordinary.

Love. Dreaming of you, Soft and blue, Thinking of you, Night and day. Ever so swiftly Trying to escape Your push and pull, The tides of desire, But sand gets in the way. We fall to the ground, laughing. #vss365 #pull #poetry #writing #WriteSky 💙🖋️ #Photography #PhotoSky 💙📷 me

William Corbett, that last line

A SHOWER IN JUNE

Peeling a hard boiled egg
the downpour curls my hair
flick of shell into garbage can
where does memory not intrude?
Another June whose roses
swung “stitched and gored,”
the very words, across stone
swallows this rain and birds’
broken song. Memory
gorges every single thing
who are we to forget so much?

"I didn't mean to fall out of bed after sex" by Lin Hart @poetry-with-hart.bsky.social #nationalpoetrymonth #poem #poetry

I didn't mean to fall out of bed after sex
but don't worry, it'll probably happen again.

Call it applause, call it a compliment,
call me whatever name you like, call me back.

The early stages of falling for each other,
pushing and pulling against unseen forces

until the resistance collapses and
hearts accelerate at 9.8m/s².

Along my equator I grow hungry and
weaker for the sight of you standing to wash

offering me a hand to help me up
that I decline, because I like the view.

This is how we communicate, bodies in heat
reaching pinnacle velocity, then cooling

grounded in the fact that we are not one soul,
but two separate entities orbiting the truth

that we may collide but never reach understanding
of one another, or of love for that matter,

but that goes without saying,
down here on the floor.

I’ve been a bit scatterbrained over the past couple of days trying to get my latest ebook out. I also went back into Aion’s Wake and made some edits and changed the cover to better match the story. If you bought the earlier version, you can re-download it on Kindle to get the updated edition.

THE CYTHERS is available now! I’ve been waiting a long time to put this out into the world. I’ve wrestled with this idea for years because of its subject matter. I even questioned whether it was derivative or gratuitous sometimes. But in the end, I knew I had to tell this story.

Yesterday I saw a picture of a Painted Bunting (Passerina ciris) and knew I had to draw it. They are really pretty. I also had a good laugh when I realised they are called "Papstfink" in German, which translates back to "pope finch". Fitting for a member of the cardinal birdfamily 😄 #birdart

Watercolour painting of a male and a female 'Painted bunting'. The male bird very colourful, the female mainly in greenish-yellow colours.

Today’s Ars Poetica is a tongue in cheek sonnet by Tony Walsh If you have been following my posts you will know I am fond of a sonnet, a little fist of a poem that punches above its weight. They are easy to appreciate but not so easy to write (well). #Poetry #Poemoftheday #Nationalpoetrymonth

Day 6 is Steven Heighton’s Selected Poems (1983-2020). I don’t like when poets die, especially when it seems that they ought to have had more time to be here with us. I am, though, always so grateful for what they leave behind—their voices clear and strong. These are a couple of my favourites.

Easter is here.

Easter

For years I trusted ruin
was the only beauty.
Now I wake my one son
in the darkness, and carry him
to find the gifts I've hidden.

Three times
I have courted death
in this one life—with whiskey,
with bitter pills, with winter—
my own heart
like a traitor
with its kiss.

No more, no more closing.
Now I stand in morning
with this child
and the blossoms lift
their faces to the radiance.

Love
says two things,
and one is greater:
I would die for you.
I would rise for you,
and live.

—Joseph Fasano
