Abstract Tapestries Sand and water polished smooth Then sun has scorched you dry Twisted on this island shore Pale sculptures left to lie Roots that once held you tall Now exposed to air and sun Like tangled, abstract tapestries Quite distinct, yes each one Water’s journey washed you here To exhibit you upon this shore Gifting artworks to this scene Nature’s beauty to explore What a voyage you have made From seedling to your demise Yet even in your noble death Such beauty you gift these eyes |

I love to work with driftwood, flotsam and jetsom, 'free' articles from nature in kinetic sculptures. This is a fine poem. Your poetry is wonderful, and so are your photos. I visited your web site today, and will go back again. You project many wonderful thoughts and perspectives with both photos and words. Thank you for sharing them, but mostly I thank you for being a devoted caretaker and steward of planet Earth. [This message has been edited by Midnitesun (01-13-2002 11:35 AM).] |

Brian...you have proven that a piece of driftwood is a fine piece of time worn art. Nice Poem... |

Brian, you are truly a visionary poet who sees beyond reality into the beauty of all things! A friend hears the song in my heart, and sings it to me when my memory fails. |
