A sonnet for a wonderful friend who is always there for me so I showed her a little care in the form of a necklace from The Glamorous Owl.
The music is “Both Sides Now” by Joni Mitchell

Upon waves' break
Staring blankly through savage waves, breaking upon worn jettied rocks. On tired tongue a salty taste, taunting spray portraits your face, In cursed thoughts, your voice mocks: "Be a man, real men don't break." Yet here stands "less than a man" poised atop crested wave. Turbulent undertows of mounted lies. Saltwater stings tear prickled eyes. Wash away by ferocious tide. Dragged out, adrift vast open ocean, Weathered driftwood, debris, discarded notions. Softly spoken lies echo through tortured mind's hell. Floating aimlessly at rhythmic water's swell. Day fades away with night, light brings day again. Cast upon discarded's land, silk fine grain white sand, Strewn together gifts of sea, randomly along the beach. Feelings return slowly, cracked open eyes. Sudden streak across the sky, fiery tail cuts black of night. Dissociation breaks to hope in light. Countless stars shine through space and time. Filling empty space..... in time.

Mismatch Challenge Winners
Blending genres isn’t about stacking elements side by side. It’s about what happens when two sets of expectations refuse to cooperate. The strongest entries in the Mismatch Challenge understood that tension and leaned into it. Rather than smoothing the edges, these stories let their chosen genres complicate one another, creating friction that carried through voice, structure, and consequence.

Awww, this was so sweet!
Beautiful poem and tribute.
This poem is a work of art!
How very lovely :) I'm sure the poem and gift were well received.
You have some truly lovely and wonder-evoking words in here, like "goddess", "Aphrodite", "magic dust" and "princess"...I'm a sucker for enchanting stories and poems like this; I love this! And I'm sure your friend love it, too :)
Very nicely done.
