WINTER NIGHTS (2)

Michael Edwards

 

 

 

Ivies wrap the stuccoed walls

where balconies weep winters rust

inside I sleep in my retreat.

      Drove to the gym through the countryside at 6am this morning and green is beginning to show, birds are starting to sing, flowers are blooming and my car is now covered in cow muck !!

      So clear I was there alongside whoever was sleeping in that ancient overgrown mouldy building. Great write again Michael.

        Why wait? just fall - it much easier. But do it in the morning - don't wait til dusk.

        Cheers da.

        Beware that "winters rust." Don't let it affect your art. Perhaps the long seasonal sleep will give you new ideas. So much said in so few words. Nice one. - Phil A.

        Now you use your words to paint. Brilliant.
