my favorite cluster of stars that hold all my secrets ... is Pleiades also called, the Seven Sisters. Somonka is a Statement/Response form written by two with a syllable count of 5-7-5-7-7.  Pleiades, Sing Statement Something in the night; a sigh, pure as ivory encircles my thoughts. I feel your breeze undress me as clouds revealing this moon. Response Seven hold the kiss; star-dew bathed in luna lace threading here to there. Naked, you kneel to accept nymphs of the west communion ©Willow&Snow'05 "i close my eyes and gather up the puddle of this life, one teaspoon at a time, into a bucket with holes" ~me an excerpt from "she still sees ugly" |

Great economy of writing to express lines of wonder... Goldenrose. Justice cannot be for oneside alone, but must be for both. (Eleanor Roosevelt) |

You do not get the recognition you deserve. This is outstanding in form, format, wording, depth and visual. Well done! "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

a collector's edition here! I, too, enjoy watching the night skies. I remember my dad and I standing in the cold with a blanket wrapped around me as we gazed. I love watching its meteor shows. Quite a show! Outstanding words! miscellanea |

A challenge from Ed -- spend a moment today, thinking about how we should treat a good person who is one of PiP's finest poets....if not this one, then one of your choice....it seems we need to. |
