Notice of absence from arqios
🕊 🙏🏻🕊️
🕊 🙏🏻🕊️
Three dots dancing, blinking bright,
Like marquee lights in the dark of night.
A rhythm timed in silence creeps,
Promises held, secrets to keep.
Each pulse a breath, a hope replete,
In moments paused, our souls meet.
Thread of words, fragile yet strong,
Keeps us close, like we belong.
In those dots, life's spark revived,
Without their glow, we feel deprived.
So wait, heartbeat’s trembling pace
For each succeeding worded grace.

Those dots will become letters and the letters become words and the words become poetry arqios.

Nice, now that the way to screw on the noggin! Thanks Andy🙏🏻🕊
Behind those dots on computer screens there is 'More' - all sorts.
Meanwhile, I'm fussing over ellipses (if that's the plural of 'ellipsis'). I've always use three dots for them. Some people use two dots. Oh well, it saves a milli-second each time, if using only two dots. And think of the ink that can be saved, if using two dots each time in writing! lol.
And some use four or even five! They got nerve! 😂🙏🏻🕊
A technological marvel becomes a poetic display of mastery. This poem a dance of dots indeed. Loved it Cryptic it left a sense of distant closeness just as the phone does. Well worded my friend
Thanks dear Soren. 🙏🏻🕊️
The joining up of the dots in the correct way, which we do not always do, yet have been correctly joined in this poem, enjoyed the read

A much younger set have yet to opine… but that’s the way of things. Perhaps later in the day, they too will have their say.
Three dots dancing...they can be a source of hope, dread, or unnoticed completely. In your poem, hope and connection. Eager anticipation for the words the other has to offer to you. A wonderful write, my friend! 🌹👏 Easy fave.
Thank you 🙏🏻 that dread part does get to ya🕊️
