"TWENTY OR LESS...#93"

She gulps
her evening

her darker
living

walks in
time's filtered
shadows

sinking deeper


the night grows cold

(big huggssssss) Oh Mark, I sensed despair reading this, sweet friend, I hope this doesn't relate to one of your loved ones as I send angel hugs out to all your family and my Thanksgiving smiles today! (sigh) God Bless You, sweet friend, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Mark, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Nancy, as always, thank you for enjoying.

Noah:  no worries -- just abstract, open-ended images...

You certainly created a mood with these images and economy of words! You are very good at writing these!

Earth Angel, I just chip away at these sculptures and hope that I don't lop off a nose or an ear...

Riley, sometimes it's all in the response...

I close
the curtain
to the light
in the darkness
I am held tight

I like the way you write these, Mark. You put so much meaning into so few words.

HeLen:  never close the curtain to the light -- the darkness is always there, anyway...

Ethel, I'm pleased you enjoy these -- they're a lot of fun to concoct...

nicely done Mark... you sculpted this one quite well, leaving impressions and outlines but not defining the features for the reader...

Whoa! Superb images, lines. Like the filtered shadows of time!

Whether on the shoal or on the shore,
I'll seek the lighthouse evermore.

Kacy:  Agreed.

Virginia:  Thank you, but really, they're just triggers for the reader to fill in their own imagery, so this tells me that YOU have great imagery!
