Notes About The Poem

 

I borrowed the picture from Andrea Dietrich

Breathe Life

The horizon split its emotions in ember fire, cobalt skies an opening for the sun to pierce its heaven. To drink its opulence of the cerulean sea ebbing to the shores. Where humans walk the pallid sand, green algae coastal rocks, through fields of flaming wild orange and red poppies. It fills its thoughts to gently thread upon the swells of the shore. To breathe its scents and walk together. The urge to kiss the world morphing into the flourished field with its being, allowing it to yield. 1/4/2019

Oh Eve, I did not even know those were poppies when I wrote on this picture. I think you captured the colorful part of the field so much better than I did. I LOVE what you did with the picture. Isn't it just wonderful? Congrats with your win with Brian. My poem on this picture won in another of his contests!!
