Julian~ This is so lovely. I have seen the taupe of the sunset ... how beautifully you've written it. The graphic is a PERFECT companion. ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ |

ethome; Janet Marie and Marge: I'm never sure whether I shall hit my mark or not, but was thinking: taupe evokes a daguerreotype, that sort of hyperclarity coupled with ... nostalgia. Thank you so much. "I am not now that which I have been." |

In the right light, skin reflects the color of taupe...your painting here, and the commune, leave me to believe, two met as one.... a lovely write! |

Thank you, Sunshine, I find such peace within short form and love to share. "I am not now that which I have been." |
