shadows hide
inside

glass trees

we seek
to catch them

then
let go

Glass shadows
hold no warmth
but shattered
we lose ours


Trees
limbed reach
grasp for heaven
but leaves
drop with changed
season
always apleasure to read your words my friend... and play with the thoughts they leave...

Nancy:  pencils are too temporary -- use a pen and stay a while

ThisDiamond:  as long as the impressions are good ones...

Honored and flattered, Ron...  I have learned much regarding minimalism and juxtaposition from your work.  Thank you for the word-play.

Sunshine, I would have it no other way...

Kacy, perhaps if the glass house is stained, the secrets can camouflage within its mosaic...?

Can you believe it Sandra?  And it all started as a simple little experiment...  (doesn't it always...?)

The illusive thought
is more enchanting
to try and catch
as yours
