I am cool water, You are a lily, upon ... I move around and about - Sustain you, cradle you. Drink of me ... And bloom! You are blossom, soft, To my supple branching ... You are fragrance and beauty, Giggling in the breeze. Hold tight to me ... And abound! I am a mistral, aloft, You, the waxwing dancing - Unseen and unknowable, yet ... I am care and constant. Press your wings upon me ... And soar! ~ 1st Place ~ in the "Strand Select 5, Any Form, Any Theme" Poetry Contest, Brian Strand, Judge & Sponsor.

Gregory, this is so lovely. I like the curve of the indents, like it's blowing in the wind. I learned two new words: mistral and waxwing - thank you for the education! Congrats on another #1 this week ~ John
