The disturbing print feels like my insides in sensory overload ... scrambled. Love the three one-liners, and you expanded my vocabulary with \"espaliered\". Good post, Michael!

Thanks Michael for another uplifting Poem \'n Pic for a sunny Sunday morning ! Brown & Blue are a powerful combination and evoke the newly harvested fields of East Anglia ~ as seen from the Train ~ so beloved of John B ! You have exact shades of rich brown loam and the tracery of the unsown fields criss~crossed by combine & plough ! My favourite Poem is number 2 and I have encountered many such ladies in the past 17 years ! However I am grateful the ANGELA is more well groomed and elegant ! Thanks for caring & sharing ~ Yours BRIAN

\'Held in passive hands\'...how many times do we hold our live and memories in \'passive hands\'! This poem is profound, Michael! Love it!

I can hear the solemn melodies from the flute just reading this great poem.

SHE PLAYED THE FLUTE
Laura🌻 said:

She certainly did play the flute...my daughter that is! I will email this beautifully penned poem to her! I’m confident that she will recall some past dreams and be most thankful for the new ones that have come true. She’s now a soprano singer of classical music.
I’m reading a lot into your painting! Fascinating!!
Thank you.

A fine write and pic Michael. It was only bitter, with no sweetness, when I accompanied her with my singing! Trust me to ruin it. doh!

BRIAN & ANGELA said:

Thanks MICHAEL ~ great theme for a Saturday Morning. Angels on Christmas Cards are often depicted \"Tooting a Flute\" or a \"High Flyer on a Lyre\".
Your Picture shrieked ZIMBABWE ~ Crossed wires of BROWN & BLUE ~ we are praying for a peaceful transition from Despotism to Sanity !
Thanks for a challenging \"POEM et PIC\" so early on a Saturday Morning ! I\'m just off to CHURCH for the Men\'s \"Full English Breakfast\" (35 of us !) and Carpet Bowls ! Yours BR IAN

Very good Michael, those sounds can bring back lost memories.

The painting is interesting, it is another one where much can be seen within it the more you look.

MEASURED REASON
Christina8 said:

That\'s quite a nice sketch, Michael! As always, you composed a great poem to accompany your art. We are much more reasonable in the light.

FredPeyer said:

You are quite the intellectual here, Michael! I do love it. Want to be able to read it again, so into my favs it goes. You know, unfortunately, \'measured reason\' seems to be in short supply in today\'s world. Just look at Washington!!!

orchidee said:

I\'m all behind - something to rhyme with \'shun\'? I\'m still trying to think of something! heehee. Now come on Orchi, that was about a million poems ago!

MEASURED REASON
Louis Gibbs said:

\"The doubt that measured reason brings\" to \"A victim of illusions call\' ... Nails it, Michael! If only more of that transpired in this world of blind followers! It could break the cycle of \'ancient transitions\' referred to in my poem today. Great poem, my friend!

The man behind you who took the photograph just wanted to capture an artist in the process of creating a work of art. I understand your smile Michael.

It is kind of magic to me that the lines turned into sketch, and the colors turn the sketch into paint. Fine poem with deep thoughts.

Incredulity versus reason - -- interesting thoughts Michael on logic that becomes wisdom through being measured. Hhhmmm - Great stuff for a morning read.

orchidee said:

A fine write and pic M. Got to go back to bed a while now though. This \'deep\' stuff, this time of morning has given me a headache. Too much thinking by me, that\'s why! lol.
Then again, working out 2+2 gives me headache sometimes. Is the answer 5?

IN PRAISE OF MILK
FredPeyer said:

Your great little poem reminded me of a time when I was little, watching a farmer milk his cow (by hand, not machine) and drinking still warm fresh milk directly from the cow. Delicious!

IN PRAISE OF MILK
dusk arising said:

I remember that butter being patted and cut with a wire for my mum. Cheese too...... then along came yogurts (Eden Vale) and life began to get complicated (growing up). Great waft of nostalgia in your words. And now its even healthy to eat butter again.... what madness have we endured (blue band marg in 4 rectangular packs) and now they tell us our lovely bovines are the cause of global warming!!! How dare they? Look what you\'ve started! LOL
