James Inman Poet Etheree

Notes About The Poem

A tribute to the poetic genius of Andrea, my answer to her etheree challenge to me.  I hope I have done her justice and lived up to her expectations..."Etheree 1" and "2" are independent poems that have been combined as a single poem in "Written Together".  If this shows properly "Etheree 1" should show up bold and Italicized.  Check out Andrea's poem at:

Ginger

(Etheree 1)
Red
falling
petals of
sweet, scented hues
gently dripping, long,
slim green and yellow leaf
with softly painted flowers
her amazing beauty glowing
with devilish intrigue and wonder,
stunning, everlasting and infinite

(Etheree 2)
They call her, Ginger, with bright hair ablaze
around her beautiful neck like the
soft flowers blooming fragrantly
in bending clusters over
hanging limbs that end like
fingertips, so smooth.
She drinks in life
as she storms
through the
world.

(Written Together)
Red they call her, Ginger, with bright hair ablaze
falling around her beautiful neck like the
petals of soft flowers blooming fragrantly
sweet, scented hues in bending clusters over
gently dripping, long, hanging limbs that end like
slim green and yellow leaf fingertips, so smooth.
With softly painted flowers she drinks in life
her amazing beauty glowing as she storms
with devilish intrigue and wonder, through the
stunning, everlasting and infinite world.
