I love this Josh! Such excellent storytelling, and the photo brings it to life, too. Great capitalisation-characterisation of Beautiful Flower. And great personification of Despair. I can picture you both at the downstairs fridge.
Thank you so much, April. Sometimes (actually far too often these days) forgetting what we went downstairs for to get from the fridge also helps keeps us fit.

there we go! That explains Despair lurking behind the fridge 😉
Oooh great storytelling Josh! That Despair has a sense of humour! “Not a hope in hell”- love this.
Hi Jamie, thanks for commenting. Me & Despair, well, we have quite a history together 📚 ✍️
“Have you been seeing Hope?”
This is so good, Joshua. I love the personification of Hope and Despair. So often they do feel like roommates. 🧡
Thank you.
what a fantastic story poem❣️ Many congratulations to this piece.
I can just see you and Despair down by the fridge, grabbing some veggies.
The jealousy of 'Hope' made me laugh. And the ending is priceless.
Thank you. I'm intrigued to experience what my 'Despair Muse' might come up with next 💜
