Premium Member Moonwash

Wisping winds whisk whispered whimsies willows’ way. 
By the pond, we ponder potent possibilities posed by pollinated passions. 
As we divine dallying delights depicting developing days, 
Moonbeams mobilize to mob us on the mossy mound.

Painting of Oblivion

Painting of oblivion

The is uniformly white
A screen depicting nothingness
There is immobility.
Occasionally a red dot appears
When the mas of the void is moved.
Into the form of life
A beast or a human?
The mystery is no one knows
Why does randomness occur

The Final God

The last survivor of the human race
Depicting General
Master and genius
Night time
Food alert
Dangerous flying
Nightly heavens
Packed ditch
Troy surrenders
Zeus is more
Gandhi falls
Hunger of a nation
When the time comes
General heat
To fly
For five hundred parts

Composed a poem for CONTEST, hoping to be the BEST,
waited anxiously for results days and nights,

Lakeside

My heart is swelling in my throat 
Candid emotions trespassing this note...
Love is the only cure to my heart
A cloud of fire depicting my past 
Now that you have finally arrived, 
trust and care would dwell inside.
My eternal lover we are not born to die...till we meet by the lakeside.

Bird Dance

Traditional dance from the dreamtime,
Doing "Bird Dance" at sleep time.
Here I am watching-the bird in it's nest-
To pass down the story of the dancers zest.

A small drawing depicting a story;
Of the bird and of its glory,
Expressed by a traditional dance;
Striking a pose, bird-stance.




With Much Respect To All Traditional and Contemporary Aboriginal Dancers.

The Starry Night

Heaven eternal
Living cosmos swirling void
Cobalt blue madness



Entry to "the colour blue" contest

Written 23rd January 2017

Note: based on Van Gogh's painting "the starry night" depicting the night-time view from his asylum window. Van Gogh's use of blue against yellow and white is the bluest blue I can imagine.

Premium Member Still

there's a little dog that's laughing
at a cow jumping the moon
and a cat playing a fiddle
on the wall of a bright room
where a mobile's hanging silent
waiting patiently to turn
like the pages on the bookshelf
that proclaim it's fun to learn
and there's a bible on a small crib 
with its cross depicting love
for a child born sadly sleeping
into arms of those above.

Premium Member Da Vinci Ponders La Scapiglata

I like to think of Leonardo da Vinci
Staring at his unfinished painting
visualizing butterflies for they represent transformation
depicting her as disheveled, thus more human

it was bold of da Vinci to select a woman as his subject
suggesting there is more to femininity than most men realize
what would he have added if he had finished?
would it be the same or better? It is fun to ponde
