Wrapped Up

Thanks Cheryl ! It’s the shortest poem I’ve ever written, but I was happy with it.

Thanks Tina ! It’s based on a hanging tree root that I have in a new two-up design – it reminded me of a tentacle. No stingers, but maybe a few bugs and spiders in it ! :D

Thanks a lot Antanas ! Much appreciated !

Thanks Flip ! :D

Thanks very much Jim ! Love is powerful – that’s what this poem is about + the profound things in life.

Thanks very much Carmel. It’s the image that conjured up the words and they both bounced off each other until it was written.

Did it really ? That’s an awesome reaction for such a short poem Rella !

That poem is inspired by women, love and beautiful things in life whatever they truly are. It’s actually my own prayer and worship right now, and maybe forever. Men don’t say things like that do they ? Well we should and I have. I don’t care about tradition and garbage, I care about being open and real ! Only !

That’s stronger and takes more courage than most blind and cowardly men will ever be aware of ! They don’t realize their weak, sheepishness, ever !

Nice to cyber-meet you too linaji ! you sound like you amy have been ob RB for just a short time. Me = 12 weeks here. The most amazing part of RB is interacting with people who love creating art and imagery. We all talk about art initially, but then other subjects gradually come up and I find it just has a revolutionary effect on my perceptions of people, the world and myself.

John Scott’s art is so otherworldly it’s mind-blowing. He’s a really relaxed soul too – great fun, highly intelligent and very perceptive at the same time.

I imagine that the way men are supposed to behave ( steel exterior ) is the same in the USA. I don’t care about those traditions and constraints. I live the way I feel matches my belief system and it gives me freedom.

Thanks very much Jianina ! This is actually a prayer of sorts – a prayer of the soul. You don’t need a church to feel that, or to pray it. I prayed it right in my chair – I’m not kidding !
I actually chose the two images to go side by side. Then I decided to write a poem to put on the tree root / tentacle side – I didn’t want just images by themselves. After I made that imagery I thought this mini poem can stand by itself – it doesn’t need anything else but it’s words.

>:D

Thanks v.much J ! It’s appreciated – thanks for checking out multiple pieces today too ! :)
