Quite a depth to this moving write Michael - - and to counterbalance the poignant mood such a glorious shade of apricot-pink on that lovely self-seed.

Trump is a horrific joke come true. He was featured in cartoons decades ago as president! As a joke! I CANNOT believe they made that moron the president! He\'s practically illiterate. Have you listened to him speak when he\'s not quoting a speech he\'s memorized that someone else wrote?! America used to be great in several ways but there have been several prominent people admit that we\'ve lost a lot of what made it great. It\'s sad to think that with all the advancements we have made, this is the mess that we are leaving our children. Btw, the natives were horrendously treated and many still are. Although the government, has over time, given them certain rights and benefits to attempt to make up for stealing so much from them in the past. (Too little, too late if you ask me) I have native great grandparents and some of the stories I\'ve heard are truly horrific. You\'ve really started something this time Michael!! Lots of comments and opinions. Well, you\'ve gotten us all thinking!

I\'ve always admired the craftsmanship that goes into each boat. This is a wonderfully descriptive piece. The flowers are beautiful and exotic looking. We don\'t have those here. I usually screenshot your work (and a few of the flowers) to read (and look at) whenever I want (they\'re saved in my pics) I\'ve saved both of these! Another great post! I always make a point of checking your posts whenever I can get to MPS. Thank you for sharing your vision.

This is such a wonderful description you could fool us into thinking it was you building the boat. Well as a craftsman you probably took it all in by osmosis.
What do you do with the seeds?

Michael,
An engaging read!
I can almost hear his humming!
Beautiful pic of the Nigella.
Do you actually use the seeds?
( Before I read the poem, I read the author comments! I thought you were talking about Nigella Lawson. Silly me...or better yet...dopey me!)
I enjoyed the whole reading experience with your write and visual!
Thank you for sharing, Maestro!

Michael,
Perfect abstract for a Dream sequence...the ones we want to go back to sleep again and continue the Dream! (Not the nightmarish ones as Lorna said)
I enjoyed the read!

Isn\'t it funny how in our dreams we never question what is going on but just roll along with it (unless it\'s a nightmare of course). Another magical abstract Michael!

Daytimes beta brain wave patters cannot assimilate the information which passes through our brain in the theta and alpha brain patterns of our dreams. Hence, on waking, our wonderful dream, once so vivid, falls from consciousness.
Not a very poetic way of describing a dream is it? Whereas yours is simply a \'dream\' by comparison.

dusk arising said:
Maybe Trump is the first prominent U.S. leader to actually acknowledge that America has \'lost\' something and he wants to re-dress that.
Certainly we are led to believe that in a lot of countries the U.S. is regarded with scorn. If he is able to change this then that alone will be a move for the betterment of America. Certainly a move in the right direction anyway.
But hey, i\'m only a Brit.

It needs saying. Nothing bears looking at too closely......... Full of opportunities so that is/was good for the huddled masses. Then they \"made it\" and lost humility. Full of \"might is right\" which is/was bad. Ask the poor Indian tribes. Also this country has had very little in the way of humbling moments on its home ground (unlike Europe). The reaction to 9/11 was to me over the top and exploited as if no one else in the world had ever experienced anything like it.... wonder how we would have responded to day and night bombing for months on end......... Trump is a symptom...... let\'s see if we can right ourselves by getting rid of him.
