It stained the Rockies a kohl burnt sienna and flooded my throat with adjectives piled one to top the other Leaving the lines with shrunken verbs and me gasping for air. as it crawled into my mouth perching upon my tongue; To escape this gentle rise in my belly . . . butterflies. . . an overkill of beauty Yet, the only thing I recall feeling was this pen gripped between my fingers The scene dying before me . . . And rancid words strewn on paper discarded with each stroke as they bled easily purples and blues mixed with Aspen gold each cut off to lie silent muted by the fade scattered in the fall of rise my belly no longer filled I thought surprise is folding itself again |

Well, I clicked on this collaboration faster than the fluttering wings of a butterfly! I am so glad that you, Sue, took El Capitan up on his offer! You two make one rocking good duo! Your fine poetic inks created a masterpiece together! I knew if you two combined your talents we'd be in for a special treat!!! Linda |

"Leaving the lines with shrunken verbs and me gasping for air." that's how I'm always left after reading either of you gasping, gratefully |

thanks you all.. for the nice words.. Now I have to tell the truth here.. Sue began this piece.. had it written in outline and in form.. I edited a few rods here and there..added one or two.. but the beauty in this is hers... not mine.. Ed.. you have a good eye.. the blend is from editing rather than opening my own mouth and ruining what she began... thanks again all.. and Sue... it was a pleasure ma'am... now..take a bow would you? |

Despite what the good Cpat says when it comes to his dueting with anyone, even the slightest tweak that comes from his pen is sure to enhance one's words... Sue, you gave him the grist... together, you made a poetic feast. Thank you both! |
