TWO SHORTIES
Robert Southwick Richmond said:
The swan of legend, of course, sings once before she dies. Back in the days when I was trying to learn to sing madrigals, of course I sang \"The Silver Swan\" (Orlando Gibbons, 1610):
The silver Swan, who, living, had no Note,
When Death approached, unlocked her silent throat,
Leaning her breast upon the reedy shore,
Thus sang her first and last, and sang no more:
“Farewell, all joys! O Death, come close mine eyes!
More Geese than Swans now live, more Fools than Wise.”
A friend of mine had a professor in college who was an inadvertent master of malaprop and mixed metaphor. On the last day of class he announced \"I\'ll do my swan dance today.\"
Love your graphic (I just stole it). When I saw your previous one, I thought \"Is that Joan Miró or Paul Klee\"?

TWO SHORTIES
dusk arising said:
I have a blackbird who comes to me in milder evenings to sing. His music is the root of all the music i hear elsewhere. Music is emotion brought into the audible sphere and that birds song brings all sorts of emotion to mind.
The blackbirds song is my tap on the reality of how i personally relate to the natural world around us.

I have seen swans singing pop, mind you they were Whooper Swans! 🦢🦢🦢.
I very much relate to the second one Cecil.
Another intriguing artwork Michael.

You\'re unusual on MyPoeticLife in that you write metrical verse. Iambic tetrameter couplets are something I\'m very interested in - see my Christmas Fete poem posted on Christmas Day.

dusk arising said:
I tried my hand at writing slush
gave it up, knocked down by a bus.
wrote a sonnet on the canal top ice
but the ice was thin, i paid the price
so i turned at last to compose in fog
stupidly i wandered into a bog
so still i try, here at my pooter
dumbstuck as usual, in a stupor

while I appreciate your skill for crisp imagery: \'patina knicker\'s\', is not something I ever wanted my over-indulgent imagination to picture with such detail... Ahem! lol
btw, your comment on Fred\'s write had me almost in tears (bits of me: indeed) lmao
oh and I took a few minutes to appreciate that beautifully serene scene of \'our everyday\', we sadly take for granted it seems,
thanks for all the chuckles on a dreary Monday morning Michael

FredPeyer said:
Thank you so much Michael for this wonderful watercolor. Absolutely love it! And from the comments you already received I guess I am not the only one!
I saw a redhead in shorts
leaving the courts
heading for the ports
to do some sports
of sorts

yup, some rhyme schemes do make us: frown... lol
I really like the uneven edges to your wall\'s brick-lines and that abrupt halt to your tree line on the left, makes it all seem more natural somehow,
Happy Holidays to you and Jeanne
