“The goddess [Flora] replied to my questions, as she talks, her lips breathe spring roses: ‘I was Chloris, whom am now called Flora. Latin speech corrupted a Greek letter of my name. I was Chloris, Nympha of the happy fields [Elysion], the homes of the blessed (you hear) in earlier times. To describe my beauty would mar my modesty: it found my mother a son-in law god. It was spring, I wandered; Zephyrus (the West Wind) saw me, I left. He pursues, I run: he was the stronger; and Boreas gave his brother full rights of rape by robbing Erechtheus’ house of its prize [Oreithyia]. But he makes good the rape by naming me his bride, and I have no complaints about my marriage. I enjoy perpetual spring: the year always shines, trees are leafing, the soild always fodders. I have a fruitful garden in my dowered fields, fanned by breezes, fed by limpid fountains. My husband filled it with well-bred flowers, saying: ‘Have jurisdiction of the flower, goddess.’ I often wanted to number the colours displayed, but could not: their abundance defied measure. As soon as the dewy frost is cast from the leaves and sunbeams warm the dappled blossom, the Horae (Seasons) assemble, hitch up their coloured dresses and collect these gifts of mine in light tubs. Suddenly the Charites (Graces) burst in, and weave chaplets and crowns to entwine the hair of gods. I first scattered new seed across countless nations; earth was formerly a single colour. I first made a flower from Therapnean blood [Hyakinthos the hyacinth], and its petal still inscribes the lament. You, too, narcissus, have a name in tended gardens, unhappy in your undivided self. Why mention Crocus, Attis or Cinyras’ son, from whose wounds I made a tribute soar?” – Ovid, Fasti 5.193 * / Selfportrait Resources: Textures by Resurgere@deviantart
“He lies right at you / You know you hate this game / He slaps you once in a while and you live and love in pain She cries alone at night too often / He smokes and drinks and don’t come home at all / Only women bleed” ~ Only Women Bleed (Alice Cooper & Dick Wagner) Reference image © photoport @ deviantART
The Golden Necklace, Night at the Museum Ball Rumored provenance of the golden necklace notwithstanding, no one could deny that it transferred magic to the wearer. The tale of the golden necklace is the story of its beneficiaries, their travels, travails, passions, and play. Tonight the golden necklace would drape the neck of Jill Monroe. It was a special occasion. She was going to the Fine Arts Museum Ball to dance the dance of her life and to gaze once again on her favorite painting in the world, Van Gogh’s brilliant Field with Poppies, visiting from the Kunsthalle. There on her dresser lay the necklace, so beautiful and other-worldly. Her perfectly manicured nails gently nudged the beads along an invisible straight line. Yes, it would contrast boldly with her pink floral gown. And he would like that. He would notice, and would lean in to tell her so, touching her ear with his hushed whisper of approval. What neither of them knew was the magic that the golden necklace would bring that night, when it went to the museum ball. / —by F.A. Moore, July 2009 Digital Fine Art by F.A. Moore, July 9, 2009 / First work in a series, “The Golden Necklace”. / NOTE: See A DIFFERENT VERSION – II, here Special thanks to stock providers katanaz-stock for the two models, which I used for model and hair, respectively; and to FantasyStock for the pink peonies used for the dress. Textures over or under the main background are from: B-squared stock. The backdrop is my ever-evolving “life collage”, featured in other works, including “Life-Giver” and “The Choice” series. Besides the background, the life collage was also used for the “mosaic” in the pink ball gown. Finally the necklace is made up of over 30 replicas of the circle in Golden Silk, a work just uploaded as a reference for this series. FEATURES 2009-07-09 The Golden Necklace… Museum in !

This poem is about hiding and finding someone in a relationship. At first when you are counting, it’s fun not to know everything… the fun is in the process of finding the other person and getting to know them. If they hide in to obvious a spot that’s not much fun, but if they hide within themselves and stay hidden then you can’t keep playing that game either because you wonder what they are really hiding from. At some point you have to open up because you can’t hide forever. My trick growing up was to hide behind a door and as soon as the seeker went off looking, I would hide where they counted, but i’m just clever like that :) much love

This is also part of the Renewal series, it is the first part with the person trapped in all their negativty before the water cleanses them. / This series was inspired by the song “New Soul” by Yael Naim. These pictures were quite a challenge as the model struggled to move and stay afloat with all the heavy material wrapped around her yet at the same time would float to the top with the air in her lungs.

/ DIRECTIONS/MISDIRECTIONS by Barry Tebb / I sit inside the train of tears The station mellow in shade Unoriginal phrases air-brush the canvas. Puzzling minds I wonder If all are like my own Closed to stillness. From girders hang the acrobats of gone Pearl grey Whistlers. We sat on A train like this once, you and I, Face to face but travelling In opposite directions- Or was it you alone I watched depart, Stood on the platform edge, anxious and alert?
REFLECTIONS OF OUR BEING Ecstasy slides into the seas of passionate love…. / For ever warmed by… / Intune by our reflections of our beings / You sky so sweet… / You sand so deep…moves in perfect unison of natures gift… / I shall sit and watch with envy the passion that binds you together….. / Some day my soul mate will appear as you do….. / PatriciaLM
/ Lying Down by Robert Desnos / To the right, the sky, to the left, the sea. / And before your eyes, the grass and its flowers. / A cloud, the road, follows its vertical way / Parallel to the plumb line of the horizon, / Parallel to the rider. / The horse races towards its imminent fall / And the other climbs interminably. / How simple and strange everything is. / Lying on my left side / I take no interest in the landscape / And I think only of things that are very vague, / Very vague and very pleasant, / Like the tired look you walk around with / Through this beautiful summer afternoon / To the right, to the left, / Here, there, / In the delirium of uselessness.
Collaboration : Image From Isa Rodriguez _and the Poetry of Happyfeet5 Woman, oh woman / What have you done to me / You are only a memory / You are not real anymore / just a dream / So why do you invade my thoughts / You are only a sweet memory / But pain and hurt / is what your memory makes me feel / but still my mind and heart / your memory will not yield. / You were gentle and tender / as sweet as a beautiful, fragrant rose / even your thorns were gentle in my hands / and your beauty out shined everything it touched / in it’s presence time froze. / Under the twinkling stars above / how we used to dance the night away / I remember thinking, “I’ve finally found love” / Your eyes told me that you felt the same way / I remember those sparkling eyes, your smile / your loving body, how it used to be / making love was so easy / but now it is only a sweet sad memory / I try not to fall asleep / because you’ll be there again in my dreams / that’s when you become more than a memory / So I fall upon my knees / and ask God, “Why did she leave me?” / Did I do something wrong? / If I did, then please, please forgive me / for I cannot deal with your memory. / I want to let go / and I come so close, oh so close / but I see the memory / of the beautiful woman, of the beautiful gentle rose. / The rose is standing so proud and tall / my tears are falling on her petals / they are saying to the woman that was once mine / goodbye / but the memory will settle / more deeply in my mind. / You will be my lasting / memory / memory / memory / of woman in my mind.

Irish Eyes is the fifth of the Nuala Anne McGrail series of mystery novels by Roman Catholic priest and author Father Andrew M. Greeley. “When Irish Eyes Are Smiling” is a lighthearted song in tribute to Ireland. Its lyrics were written by Chauncey Olcott and George Graff, Jr., set to music composed by Ernest Ball, for Olcott’s production of The Isle O’ Dreams, and Olcott sang the song in the show. It was first published in 1912. The song continued to be a familiar standard for generations. Decades later it was used as the opening song on the radio show Duffy’s Tavern. The song has been recorded on over 200 singles and albums and by many famous singers, including Bing Crosby, Connie Francis, and Roger Whittaker. Round of drinks, a traditional method of paying in a drinking establishment / In many places it is customary for people to take turns buying rounds of drinks in which each individual in turn pays for a set of drinks for all present. A ubiquitous custom in Ireland, United Kingdom and Australia. In Australia it is referred to as shouting. This practice is also customary in New Zealand and in many parts of North America, especially in areas where people with cultural roots in Ireland and the UK predominate. A notable exception was the UK State Management Scheme in which treating (i.e. buying a round) was forbidden, from July 1916 until June 1919.
