MORE MONOSTICHS
FredPeyer said:

Agree with Santi! The last one is the best. But I also like the other ones, especially the bird one.
The print is great too. What kind of printing is it that you could only make one copy? Straight from glass? I used to deal with original graphics, silkscreens, etchings, etc., but this one got me stumped!

THE BURGESS SHALE
dusk arising said:

Reminded me of the man who ran up expenses of $2 million digging up old relics and finally found something rare. He made the Fossil bill possible.

Excellent haikus strung together to form a larger piece. Very old fossils and modern art, opposite ends of the time spectrum. The painting looks oceanic to me, something blue-watery about it. I even thought I saw a dolphin. - Phil A.

Thanks MICHAEL ~ good use of poetic structure ! Multiple HAIKU is an excellent way of presenting a serious poem in a digestible form. With most fossils the \"soft parts\" are often missing ! Please check my RICE PEAS \'N CHICK befor it all gets consumed ! BRIAN We are both on mega serious topics today !

A fine write and pic M. I shale commend this poem (corny joke there). Ahh, some of us saw it being formed originally, 508 million years ago. We were there. See, carved like a fossil \'I Woz Ere\'.

SHE MONSTICHS
MendedFences27 said:

The \"She\" in #4 is the girl for me. Lots of fun in your Monostichs, which \"Spellcheck,\" won\'t recognize as a word. Learning new stuff every day.
Art - Polar bears in as few lines as possible.
Loved both. -Phil A.

No 3 is definitely the best, but no 2 is good too, leaves a lot to the imagination, then no 4 and finally no 1
But then, who am I to judge!
Great monostichs, all of them! (Had to look up the word too)

Some days I don\'t write any poems at all. Do I cheat? I may write 1, 2 or 3 on other days! I don\'t of it on purpose to keep up a backlog, it\'s just how things go with my inspiration.

I\'ve just about run out with about only three poems not yet posted - at the moment I\'m spending all my spare time preparing paintings for display and an art demonstration plus just a couple of commissions which will take a while so hanging in on MPS by my finger tips - perhaps I should have posted these one at a time. Thanks for your comments Santita - I think No3 is my favourite - it makes me smile whenever I read it.

LIMERICK 43
dusk arising said:

I used to visit the Gower every month of the year, a favourite area with best beaches by far.

My memory often stumbles
To peninsular past The Mumbles
where such outstanding beauty
often found me fruity
To revisit? - my heart grumbles

First area in UK to be designated \'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty\'.

I love a limerick, would write them all day. Great to see you enjoy them too. Enjoyed yours here and obviously struck a chord in me.
Big thank you.

MendedFences27 said:

I think I worked for that guy. He always left early.
I was about to say \"Nice limerick,\" but they aren\'t supposed to be
\"nice\" are they? I\'ll simply say \"Fresh limerick\". Enjoyed the flashback to my working days. - Phil A.
