Words are losing definition worn and reduntant as the stamped on trees in this too bleak winter stilllife echos of eachother, stiff as wooden soldiers, one upon the other diminishing in the distance falling like dominos, they erase now, my eyes become brushes painting the empty branches, with the overflow of sundowns colors before they stetch over the nighttime horizon,locked away in the artist's box safe until morning, i empty and fill in the same blank spaces over and over again, tired wallpaper waiting for something that hasn't yet come, meantime time moves |

Profound and beautiful. The awareness of the passing time is a melancholic note ... but you fill the waiting time with beauty, which acts as a magnet for what you are waiting for ... Love and hugs. Margherita |

my eyes become brushes painting the empty branches, with the overflow of sundowns colors before they stetch over the nighttime horizon,locked away in the artist's box safe until morning, Michele, this is so beautiful. Your writing gets better and better..... and it was already excellent!!  Hugs  Ethel |

This is so pretty Inked one. There is a sadness and a longing ever present, and you give it life and release it so gracefully to us. TD |

"my eyes become brushes I could have picked any phrase or verse, so many poignant threads to pull on here...Such passion in your longings and longings in your passions, you render the moving moment, passing time, beautifully ~C |

"i empty and fill in the same blank spaces over and over again, tired wallpaper waiting for something that hasn't yet come, meantime time moves" I agree....hard to choose. "sit on top of the world and tell me how you feel...'cause what you feel is what I feel for you.." |
