| Posted by Linda Fuller on 06/29/10 at 04:33 PM I couldn't have identified a hyacinth either - beautiful flower, beautiful poem - googled hyacinth and learned the mythological background. If I had taken that photograph, I would be quite pleased to have it associated with your poem. |
| Posted by Charlie Morgan on 06/29/10 at 11:27 PM ...morgan, like you 'do it proud' as Loretta Lynn would say. serendipity in clicking-on your pome...i'll never look at a hyacinth the same. like linda says your beautiful words and the line-breaks are totally KICKING! you can be proud of this one. as you should be many of yours...i'm just sayin' |
| Posted by Therese Elaine on 06/29/10 at 11:57 PM Ah Morgan, this is a lovely piece -suited to Victorian chapbooks of young-love poetry, art-gallery contemplation on sleepy Sunday afternoons and the arboretums of olde. |
| Posted by Gabriel Ricard on 06/30/10 at 03:48 PM Gorgeous last couple of lines. Loved it. |
| Posted by Anita Mac on 06/30/10 at 05:54 PM So out of character for you. Love it though. Funny... The flower I'm stalling on drawing for my current series is a hyacinth. (You'd know that if you were facebook... Just sayin'.) Lovely, aren't they? ^_~ |
| Posted by Nanette Bellman on 07/02/10 at 06:58 PM It's nice to see this softer side to you. I think you did an amazing job with the imagery in this piece and the photo, well that's just icing on this cake you've baked for us. Good job, Moe. |
| Posted by Chris Sorrenti on 07/04/10 at 02:59 PM A quaint positive message here. I especially like the reference to Heaven in the closure. That photo almost looks like a painting at first glance. |
| Posted by Kristina Woodhill on 07/04/10 at 08:39 PM Heaven on earth in my own garden - I will think of this poem each spring. Lovely. |
| Posted by Tim D Livingston on 07/09/10 at 04:16 PM Love it. I learned a new flower today. What a beautiful, epic introduction for such a complex flower. I'm learning so much about landscaping this year. My two latest plant learnings are Zinnias and Gardenias! |

| Posted by Wendy Sparling on 08/10/10 at 03:48 AM This poem is the best I've read in ages. One hyacinth will scent your entire garden. My POTD pick for todsy. |
