Thanks MICHAEL ~ \"Though the outward Man perish ~ the inner Man is renewed day by day ~ We are transformed by the daily renewal of our minds through Peace & Poetry\" Thanks for sharing. Love the scary abstract ~ Change & Decay in all around I see ! Life expectationwise I\'m only one third through my life ~ but my laugh lines are showing ! Please check my Poem & Fusion ~ both on TIME ! Thanks BRIAN.

\'A decimated earth post-apocalypse\', is what the painting speaks to me. A decimated man, devoid of love, is what the poem describes to me. Both so well done! Thanks for sharing them with us, Michael.

Thanks MICHAEL ~ The abstract smacked of No Man\'s Land in WW1 ? The poem is a TERCET indeed with a nice metered flow. If \"music be the food of love\" CUPID should liaise with Weight Watchers ! Notes have less calories than oats ~ or is that a double-entendre ? BRIAN

\"Who hath smelt woodsmoke at twilight ~ Who hath heard the birchlog burning ~ Who is quick to read the noises of the night ? Let him follow with the others ~ Where the Young Men\'s feet are turning ~ To the camps of known desire and proved delight\" Your poem evoked days in the 80\'s & 90\'s when we could still chop down trees and cook over open fires ~ now forbidden on our Scout Camp Sites. Your painting was a reminder of looking down on the camps from a 30ft observation tower (To scout fro the Cherokee !) awesome DEJA VU ! In the 21st C its all primus stoves and gas fired BBQ\'s and every tree is numbered and has a preservation order ~ SHAME Baden Powell is like a chicken on a spit in his grave. Apple burns well with a sweet smell ~ ash burns well wet or dry ~ take care with pine it spits at you ~ oak burn forever etc useless knowledge in a hi-tech age ! Perfect PICTURE ~ Perfect POEM ~ what are you on ? Thanks BRIAN

\"They never sang nor spoke nor met yet in a dream she cradled him\". Something about this one touches me at a hidden level ... my favorite by far.
