Friday Writings #36: Sunset:

how golden these clouds
to a passing day causing
wonder of glare

to stop and watch
ponder with nostalgia
words and colours

tagging friendship
fit to savour and preserve
in time's passing

    I love that those clouds stopped a bit, for them to watch but also for us to marvel them.
    I like to your "Loose Ends" drawings. Perhaps you have created a new art form. Maybe assign meaning to each or let viewers call. I'd call these two :Driving on muddy roads.

  21. I have to check up 'kiskadee', and what a lovely bird it is.
    Your first drawing reminds me of an Alexander Calder mobile, and I like that portrait you done of him.
    And what a lovely tribute to Beverley.
