Written for Di11ly Da11y poetry contest Monotangled Sense

Write an abstract monoku. With a really tight syllable count of up to 17, attempt to capture a moment, emotion, image, painting etc. in a way that appears to be a surface ramble but has apparent deeper meaning when you give the line some thought.

The artist's garden at Giverny by Claude Monet (1900)

Claude Monet's series of garden paintings at his home in Giverny, France, are renowned for their exquisite depiction of his beloved flower garden. "The Artist's Garden at Giverny" captures the artist's fascination with light and color, portraying the lush blooms and tranquil atmosphere of the garden in a dreamlike, impressionistic style.

soul's speech is your flower garden - let it flourish with fragrant beauty

The beauty Monet presents in this painting shows us that beauty comes from within, as does your poetic presentation through your artistic mode of poetry. Excellent match for the contest, Silent One. Thanks for sharing your talents with us. I will add this one to my FAVs. A poet friend in Texas, Bill

So much has been said within such few words!! Ahh, how fascinating is this monoku and carries this rare elegance that paints itself so vividly and gently whilst reflecting myriad thoughts.. Soul's speach is your flower garden- indeed & that too, one which is so flourished with many scents blended together yet distinguished by their unique symphonies.. I absolutely adore this monoku poem and the wise richness that it radiates.. So amazing as always!! :) a fav!

Of what dad said of Monet--I remembered this--hang a Monet in a sleezy bar with muscle-head union workers at the end of the night and after a few cases of beer, stare at it with awe. Flawless interpretation of that piece, Silent One

So beautiful, the art you’ve chosen here matches the colors of your soul too. I was just writing for this too lol. Ah and i absolutely love the depth of this monoku really. The way you’ve delivered this with seamless alliterations in a deeply metaphorical manner truly is impeccable. One must always take care of the garden in their soul. Let it flourish… yes’ with nothing but beauty… what a brilliant one liner! I am in awe! Definitely a winning one. Goodluck for the contest, i love it
