Of Pete’s Pond Chip to me oh scallywag of bug-ness, oh winged blur. The music of your tatting rumbles and clears the ridge, resonates into the pond with light, sings, yes sings slapped water sounds of night and the timbre of the soft dredge of sky. A huge beast tiptoes into the savannah casting a shadow into the dark, and I am taken into the slush and slurp of Africa, without even saying a word. ------ With thanks to Sharon, Poet deVine, for the link here that inspired me: /pip/Forum3/HTML/003779.html [This message has been edited by Martie (10-06-2005 05:14 PM).] |

smiling, knowing you probably meant savannah, not tundra but I love the way you interpreted the imagery...the sounds of 'bugginess' |

You captured the essence of Pete's Pond Martie. I've spent a few hours waiting and watching to see who comes to drink from the pond. A great site. believe in what your heart feels... |

I tried to watch that link, but it was not working at the time... however, you did a fine job of allowing one to see what wasn't there...  |

Well, I'm a putz. It seems I need a picture. You always make me think.  If tears could build a stairway and memories a lane, I'd walk right up to heaven and bring you home again. |
