A painting by Paul Whitener

PC: Paul Whitener (1911-1959) Big Bluff of Humpback Mountain, 1955, Oil

A voice echoes from the depth of this art,
“his” wishful perseverance to marvel a craft.
In its silence is hidden a message so worth,
colourful extravaganza is not for earth -
effortless, subtle and unblemished beauty,
hues of green’s enough to make it pretty.


In response to Margaret's challenge at IGWRT, titled "Artistic interpretations with Margaret - Small town inspiration..."

    Inspiration, to continue. And with the green it's pretty as well. Just right, Vijita.

Path of life

PC: Mi Young Lee …and when the cassette began to rewind - I looked at what I earned and lost on my way. The reel showed a vibrant mosaic of colours; a patch of happy as well as bad times. No turns, no ups, nor downs but straight, I assessed the path of my emotional life. All the grouch seems useless now, time had been kind and always on my side. With every dark patch it offered a light zone, And all through with love and support of the own… In response to Susie's "Bits of imagination" at IGWRT .

This week at Imaginary garden with real toads, poets frame queries in "Fashion me a poem", using not more than 100 words, in the style of Emily Dickinson's 'Answer July' Here's one on the dilemma on which is the best phase of life - past, present or future:  PC: www.google.co.in Answer tomorrow -  What do you hold - Where lies my smile - Which way to memory? Sighed tomorrow - Are you bold - Can you laugh every while - Yester is remembrance already! I am gone - said yesterday - What did I teach - Where is the dream - Do you wish to deem - What is it today? Frowns today – Is past the leisure I had – Is future good or bad – How many more of me(s) to add? Exclaimed – life explained – Beautiful was yester – Upcoming not to pester – Today a daily fad! Live everyday – taught experience PC: www.google.co.in
