Backflash What… flash Hush… sounds But flickers Shhhhh scents Moments sighs There breezes Oceans depths Blues greens Darkness warmth Dejá you ©KRJ 7-29-11 "The business of the poet...is to show the sorriness underlying the grandest things and the grandeur underlying the sorriest things."

Had to study it for a while, before I could absorb the whole. Once I did that the essence of it all came together. ~ Money can't buy happiness, but broke can't buy anything. ~ |

I've read this a few times now, K. It's elegant, and quite intriguing. One almost anybody is able to dive into and connect dots, and personalize. I know I did. Would love to be able to peek into your mind and spy out the inspiration for this. Michael |

Dear Sunshine, I read your poem in several different ways, (1st across in zigzag line, then, down each column). Each time I read it, the poem evoked greater emotion. I LOVED IT! ebonygirl |

Very creative writing, Sunshine. Love the thought process gone into this one. Fine writing. "The secret behind survival of mankind is kindness and love within our hearts" |

I'm very pleased that a lot of you were able to interpret this poem for yourselves, and perhaps be part of it in your own way. Note to Michael...you really don't want to walk in that quagmire, my friend...you never know what you're going to find. Thank you all for taking a moment to share me with you. |

Spiros, thank you so much, but I do not believe this a new genre, more of listening to both sides of the brain, perhaps? Where dreams start, and reality stops? Vice versa? I'm not sure, but I've been here/there in this "voice" if we could call it such...I've experienced the moments of deja vu, and can easily recall such moments back to the age of two. Certain moments still remain in the brain and I can "see" them quite easily. Sissie...thank you...but you already know all about me...and still, you remain. |
