I like this, especially the final stanza. It’s an all-round sensory poem.

Thanks Jane. That final stanza was always there. I fiddled with the others.

This prompt was your kind of prompt. I agree with Jane, very sensory.

How perfect a word is “limnants”… Also, in the top painting, I love how stars appeared for you (accidentally?) in the night sky. A marvelously all-encompassing scene, just like the poem.

Thanks Sun. That top painting is mostly accident, as all my mandala watercolors are. Even from wet to dry new things appear and disappear. Also, I originally painted it upside down from the way I put it here, which worked for the original post. Art is endlessly malleable (and surprising).

The blue jay in the last piece of art is so very beautiful! And your words and art mesh perfectly!

Echoing all the comments above–a good prompt for you. I love limnants, and “black wings orbit time.” Beautiful art–love the blue bird.

Thanks Merril. There’s not as much clarity in that bird painting as I wanted, but it had the right feeling.
