In the place past midnight I listen for the pale opening of a dream I ask the moon for the sound like a footfall in the growing spring around while past the thick street the sky begins a harvest of clouds |

In this poem is the" red wheel barrow" of Williams, the "wet, black bough", of Pound... Canyon scribbles indeed...how they place me at the scene. I love how so few words, written well, can make so clear a picture, that only exists in my mind.. And the way good poetry, like this, transfers that scene, from the poet to the reader.. Excellent poetry, Martie ___________ice/ford ><> |

Aren't there some pages over there in the yucca clinging, waiting for you to pick them up and scribble upon them? I think there are. The moon knows. |

"I listen for the pale opening of a dream" made it sound so soothing and comfortable...  "too bad ignorance isn't painful" |

I only wish that I could write something more significant than “beautiful writing” but I am in awe of this wonderful piece of poetry, so beautiful writing it is Andrew |

A picture of you.....scribbles you call it, but it is a snapshot, of one small part of your spirit. Therefore it is beautiful. |
