Evelyn congratulations for your win! You really dove deeply into your colorists' palette of hues that evoke the "blazing" colors of spring. Just delightful! Happy Easter to you!

How lovely! Love your comment to Gershon. Reminds me of an artist, Simon Bull, who would paint the big picture and then in time zeroed in on the inside of one flower. Love your zoom in and zoom out lense, dear poet! Love those final two lines! Gold indeed!

It's wonderful to know you enjoyed this, Kim. Thank you so much for your expressions of appreciation, and also for your kind comparison to a distinguished artist. God bless, Evelyn

Am I the only one who sees you winking at how you set your poem up against this (strictly) Blue Ridge Mountain background?! ~ Not to Worry. This Emp. wears clothes. lol.

It's a play on words and colors here, Gershon. But the mountain range is very blue when seen from a distance. The big picture comes from a distance. :)
