Also, I am a huge fan of creating one\'s own word combos to represent personal concepts. Some of my own are \"Silver-sigh\", \"Secret-heart\", \"Whisper-sigh\", and \"Shaman-man\". To me, \"Silver-sigh\" Represents a sort of melancholy sleep inside one\'s heart, the feeling you get from seeing someone so beautiful that will never truly realize how beautiful they are. \"whisper-sigh\" is akin to a deep dreaming sleep, and the \"shaman-man\" is a character from a dream, a spirit-guide. Naturally, I loved your use of \"Soul-beauty\". A poet should not be held back by language, when attempting to express a concept not quite defined by any existing words or phrases.

This one was thought out. Poetry should not be like a paper-mill, it should come from the heart (in my opinion, which I agree should be more humble). This was heartfelt, and with not a line wasted. Even heartfelt poems can become cluttered with garbage rhymes and needless syllables- this one of yours expresses perfectly what it sets out to say, in crystal clarity. Good job.

It does not make you two faced as your canvases are full of your likeness, and therein lies beauty.

What to do with the blank page? Fill it with meaningful musings such as these. She is an elusive child this Muse, always too early or too late, or off playing in someone else\'s field. I guess the only answer is persistence. - Phil A.

Thanks FAY for your beautiful \"Ode to Spring\". Love the way you express it as Nature\'s love affair with the Earth and the Spring Flowers ~ very poetic ! Love the visual ! We are all noticing how early Spring has sprung this year and nowhere more noticeable (in the UK) than in your beloved Cornwall ! Thank B.

Lovely. It\'s such a refreshing time of year, and you\'ve captured that sense in your poem. Love the personification of Spring, the plants, the flowers. We always seem to get that \"cold snap\" brief return of winter just as things start emerging from the ground. Loved your poem - Phil A.

MendedFences27 said:
Nature, in all its glory, can and does inspire. We become a bee, a fox, a tree for that matter, and it flows from pen to paper. Nature drags us to the realization of our place on this Earth. Egos are drained and \"I\" seems irrelevant. Could we stand on a mountaintop and proclaim our own importance? Very insightful, very well drawn images, beautiful poem. - Phil A.

FAY ~ Consider the Lilies of the field how they grow ~ they sow not neither do they reap ~ but I say unto you that even SOLOMON in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these ! ~ The closer to nature we get ~ the more we can learn about ourselves and the Wonderful World we are privileged to inhabit ! Great thoughts for Sunday FAY ~ thanks for caring and sharing ~ B

Yes, the wind can dance and twirl like a ballerina, and roar like a lion. It can whip the snow, the leaves, the dust, or it can leave us all in sweltering heat hoping for its return. Loved you poem. - Phil A.
