Gregory Richard Barden Poet Etheree

Notes About The Poem

Queen Anne's Lace

Soft

Snowflake

Spun like lace

Sweet Broderie ...

Meadows splashed in white

Nature's bright brush spatters

Dipping dreamy with the breeze

Slender, dressed in their Sunday best

Oh, I wonder - do you know your charm?

You are gossamer and grace, Queen of Life!

Sandra Haight May 5, 2019 at 12:57 PM I really like your Etheree, Greg. Beautifully written and lovely imagery presented through your words...and the shape. I believe shape is important in this form, having a smooth, graduated, diminishing or expanding edge, and not the jagged form often seen. Congrats on your win. Sandra <3 Gregory Richard Barden May 12, 2019 at 2:01 AM Thank you ... thank you so much, Sandra, that means a lot. This is my first stab at the form, and it was quite enjoyable - so pleased you liked it! Blessings! :-) <3
