Posted by Kate Demeree on 11/19/03 at 04:09 PM *soft smile*.... an ode... and a beautifly written one. Funny isn't it how something so sturdy, that is such a survivor can be so very delicate when it is ready to send forth it's seeds. |
Posted by Leslie Ann Eisenberg on 11/19/03 at 04:10 PM the colors alone stun! this piece is a PRIME example of taking the simplest image, and unpacking the sensory details in a memorable way -- color, texture, sight, sound.......... filigreed filaments stretch
pointy white fingers
to the universe
they intend to impregnate.....beautiful, and the whole piece, rife with movement and natural rhythm
movement. a keen observer, felled by a mere weed. well done, indeed. |
Posted by Max Bouillet on 11/19/03 at 07:31 PM Naturalistic and totally stunning observation in verse. My favorite lines has to be... "pointy white fingers to the universe they intend to impregnate." Great read! |
Posted by Charles E Minshall on 11/19/03 at 07:37 PM Great poem Glenn, I like the color. The dandelion is not a dandy plant for me, I fight
off their puff balls all summer...Charlie |

Posted by Ashok Sharda on 11/24/03 at 03:29 AM The most beautiful aspect is the 'oneness' without. But this is only possible when one has attained stillness within with the attention INTACT. And I can see that since the SCENE presented just can't be looked or imagined. It has to be SEEN and you saw it so beautiful. So beautifully. |

For me, the formatting contradicted the atmosphere, but that's me being pedantic I guess :) |
