I\'m not against abstract paintings, though I don\'t like too many dark colours. That abstract of yours may sell for about £5 million! Ohh, wishful thinking - or no?!
A fine write and pic Michael.

Not for me, Michael. I need a picture to be a picture, I\'m afraid.

Good luck to all abstracters, though. There\'s a place - just not my place.

Michael, an incredible poem and a beautiful painting. Being married to a Chinese woman, the first thing I saw in your painting was abstract chinese character brush painting.The next thought was to be open to whatever comes our way.
And finally, your last stanza is right on! I find it unfortunate that children\'s minds are being limited by us adults. WE should be more like children!

It took me a long time to come to understand abstract art, what I found was I need to LOOK at a painting not just see it. It is the same with music to appreciate it properly you need to LISTEN to it and not just hear it.
As you know Michael I have appreciated your abstract works that you have put on this site and this one is no different.
I can always find something within the abstract that calls to me or makes me think.
Good write and that last stanza is so true, children do not have stains in their minds.

A COUPLE OF EDONES

Hey Michael, I\'m happy to be back here and read your poetry again. Nice form. I\'m studying a bit but forms still too complicated for me. Answer for your question\' I have very lite sleep and have mostly little dreams that I can remember instantly. Some dreams can affect my next day with happiness, excitement or sadness. Negativity.

Wonderful stuff. Great ideas expressed in a rigid format. Very difficult. Too challenging for me, I have enough trouble with meter and rhymes. On the second Edone (my favorite) I believe un-remembered dreams soon become
De-ja vu. Your artwork is, as always, outstanding. - Phil

I know Edone better now. I thought it should start with one letter word, in this case, there is not much to start with. Start with two-letter word, open it up to more possibilities. Enjoy both.

These are both excellent but have you ever considered doing one in reverse form? Just a suggestion.

Two very clever Edones Michael. I too like the second one. Dreams are there to inspire us, if we ever reach our dreams for what do we then aspire.

Interesting form for pithy reflections. They evoke reflection and pause. Nicely done!

Like both of them. I also sleep very heavily, nothing can wake me. You could probably steal my wife from right beside me! But I usually do remember the last dream, or at least part of it, right after waking up. But not for very long.

SHE SOUGHT HER LIBERTY
myself and me said:

The red wild poppy is one of my favorite flower. It blooms in the field, the bright color makes it stand out.
\"and though conceding to despair
she probed herself anew.\"
I sense the courage and strength in it.
A great piece. Love the simple line paint. Who ever got it have a good taste.

SHE SOUGHT HER LIBERTY
Louis Gibbs said:

A strong poem, left open to interpretation as good poems often are, compelling the reader to share her plight. Good write, Michael!
