Explain
Shadows color
The movement of the trees
The tune of it is touching me
The eyes curiously
Unblinking time
Dappled

I watched shadows
of cottonwood
dapple sanctum walls
with yesterday's
early evening sun...
and a rainbow or two
from crystals hanging
made splendid
my thoughts of
dappling...

but your poem
hits home.

Time does have dapples
Some are light, some aren't

Nicely phrased. Ken

Through rubble and trouble and dark of night
The yawn of a dawn will hasten the light

I love to see you work, to watch you think and feel what will become a poem. It's a beautiful thing.

This made me think of a time when I was a child and my Mother and I went to visit a neighber who had a dappled grey mare, and my asking, "what does dappled mean?"  Much appreciated your explanation, Martie!  Have a good weekend.   ....jo
