PAPER

Paper excites the totality of those with imagination
Blank white is foundation awaiting possibilities of creation

A mere sheet has effective, long life potential
Paper may excite pens, color tools or pencils

Sheet turned awe may launch universal prose segments
Sheet turned delightful may give man artistic fragments

Crisp, wanting sheets ignite many a muse’s heat
When pulp weds art, brilliant elements can peak 

Paper offers delights of visual and emotional treats
Even paper balled up trash leads to final drafts.

wow, Caycay. you did GREAT in this form of Vermillion's. For sure if I were judge, this one would place high. Today I took my daugher to see "A simple Favor" It's dark comedy at its best. I saw The Wife and also an inspiring christian movie earlier. All three were so different but equally good movies. Angie's birthday is the 18th so celebrated it early with just her. Tomorrow I am seeing a nephew I hardly saw in his entire life. That should be fun, but i have no time for others!!

I do not know about others, but as for me, I have to have the actual blank white sheet, a blank computer screen is not the same thing at all, and cannot be squeezed into a nice recliner on my lap. Nice!

And it all comes from the very trees that supply us with endless life. A wonderful write about something as little as a piece of paper. Very well done and written, CayCay.. Enjoyed this...Charlie

Like this one CayCay, even the humble paper has a poem written about it. How times have changed, now its computers and smart phones, at least it's good news for the trees. Tom
