Elephants ran from the perilous sounds the bakery overcooked the days bread winter tires installed on the wheelchairs soldiers in a line to eat cakes bread was in short supply monsters on break, or strike clouds dipped to human eyes blinding all with hope if a grave misses a few flowers? what does it matter? chimneys have no smoke wineries have no grapes lovers lost all grace when rain falls words become wet like feet caressing the sand I have a photo? would you understand?

to look into a picture, and the mind creates this poem, i'd say that is clever art at its best..

Lots of daily things that don't always capture our interest. Interesting verse Arthur. Tom.

Fascinating imagery art, am sure the snow tyres would be very handy for some, i especially like when rain falls words become wet... works the same way with tears:-) hugs Jan xx

All these comparisons and contradictions... And yeah, some winter tires would be wonderful :)

This poem has so many references to things that escape our consideration. Snow tires on wheel chairs (maybe they really ARE needed) and people being blinded by "hope"! (Wouldn't that be truly wonderful?) I absolutely love this, Arthur, and it's a fave for me!

Enjoyed your brilliant write, Arthur. Thanks for your kind comment about poor Rudolph - seems he is always in trouble. Best to you - Bob
