Bring me your grin
to tickle my toes
bring me pickles and sins
your happiness mess
of tonic and gin.
With giggle and glee
unravel my dusk
turn grey into gold,
turn sour to sweet,
Girl,
you’re spinning me dizzy
I’m giddy
I’m glad.

Björn Rudbergs writings 
So light hearted Bjorn!
Your poem made me smile, Björn, and warmed me up like a big hug while I’m sitting in my cold study. We’re easily pleased with ‘pickles and sins’. I love the lines:
‘With giggle and glee
unravel my dusk
turn grey into gold’.
Love the light-hearted romantic that you are in this poem! 🙂 Giddy indeed 🙂
Yes, this brought a smile to my face, thank you. I’m not quite giddy, but I think you have the monopoly on that this evening!
Happiness with love. Isn’t that the best kind of happiness to have? Beautifully written, Bjorn!
I sense you have the right partner in life; me too.
That giddiness of love–delightful. This was a delight of a poem in feeling and in the sound of it.
Happy to know you’re giddy and glad, Bjorn. Lucky man!
Love your lively care-free idea of happiness ❤
Such delightful giddiness! Sounds like a fun evening. 😉
Lots of fun here, Bjorn. Don’t often see pickles in a love-poem!
I’m tickled by your play with words love and joy in this .. delightful!
A giddy time was had by all, it seems 🙂
Love your lighthearted song of a poem… Nothing like a perky pickled love to make one happy!
There is such a stunning, natural rhythm and flow to this one, Bjorn! 😀 I love; “With giggle and glee unravel my dusk turn grey into gold.” 💝
this shines with the love you share with your partner. great to read
Very nice, I think I knew someone like that… once.
Lovely Björn, I so like the mixture of sublime and noble with the earthy – and that’s what love is I guess.
FYI: Giddy can be very contagious. Thanks, BR.
Unravel my dusk. Yes, it is that powerful!
This poem made me giddy and glad!
Nice one Björn
Happy Monday
Much💙love
A charming piece, Bjorn. Lovely!
Fun piece to read.
This is simply wonderful!
I love the sounds of the words here, almost like a tongue-twister. There is delight in the distractions of love even in dark times, and you’ve conveyed this so well in so few words.
So much said in so little poem ! Wonderful 👍🤝
love the subtle sensuality of this piece, Bjorn!
Delightful and carefree piece, Bjorn.
To embrace another’s messiness. Wonderful! “Your happiness mess.”
