          This seems a compelling truth where words are merely the tool by which poetic feeling can be expressed a type of projector of the image. Nicely said my friend

            Words like tubes of paint brushed onto palette pages, thanks dear Soren 🎨

                β€œIf you focus on one leaf you can miss an entire forest”

                • arqios

                  Oh, even better! Like missing the forest for the tree, or something like that! πŸ•ŠοΈπŸ™πŸ»

                  Inverted commas? A quotation?

                  Well said
