MARCH WHEN.....

Michael Edwards

           

 

MARCH WHEN…

 

           

 

           M arch when birds sing

           A nd small early flowers

           R each out between showers

           C ascading, celebrating and

           H eralding spring.

  • Comment from author about the poem: A bit late in the month but better late than never. The abstract hangs in my living room along with the painting posted yesterday. There are some paintings I just can't part with.

    Wow, Michael!
    I can just imagine the two
    paintings hanging side
    by side in your living room...
    stunningly beautiful!
    The contrast between
    the two is EXCEPTIONAL!
    I love the form and message of your acrostic poem! You are a master of your craft! Fantastic work!
    Definitely “better late than never”!

      I've got four in the living room plus two by another artist who was my mentor - now sadly no longer with us - I do miss him. So pleased you like the poem as well - short but sweet.

      • Laura🌻

        Very sweet!😊

        I too can understand why you have those two paintings in your living room, they are both superb.

        By the way the poem is good as well.

        A fine write Michael. Hope so - Spring!

        • Michael Edwards

          Bit like spring this morning - blue sky and raring to go.
          Go where you might ask !
          Shopping says I.
          Oh fiddlystickloads !!

          • orchidee

            Ohhh the highlight of your day?! The local shops. Well, good to get outdoors if we can. Erm, it was blue sky. Clouds over now and again.

            • Michael Edwards

              Still blue here!

              Love the poem Michael - "reach out between snowstorms" would have been more accurate this year (here at least)...... the painting took my breath away! How nice to have a handy man like you around the house just creating more and more beauty! You're a useful fellow indeed!

                I've just come in from gardening - first lawn cut and spring tidy up - and getting my vitamin D and a bit of sunshine. Now to write a poem I have an idea for - tomorrow painting all day. Tonight the AGM for the local Art Club. It's all go and I wish I was gone lol.

                • Lorna

                  Stop and smell the cut grass!

                  What a beautiful poem Michael.

                  A delightful tribute to March.

                  Keep writing

                    Wonderful acrostic and breathtaking abstract!

                    • Michael Edwards

                      Thanks so much for the compliment Christina

                      HI MICHAEL ~ I give you permission to post an ACROSTIC ~ but please warn me next time so I can wear my shades ! I'm not mad you wrote one ~ just mad it was so good Love the painting of the Lake District ~ Wastwater ? ! Yours BRIAN

                      • Michael Edwards

                        Cheers Brian - I will certainly let you know if I write another acrostic - I really do appreciate your encouragement - yes it could be 'Wastewater or possibly the slopes of Etna although when I was there last year it was covered in cloud.
