And your images are the perfect backdrop to the poem.<br /><br />"I want to capture August<br />In the middle of a dawn;<br />Press it fast between two pages,<br />Now, before the charm is gone." -- that is beautiful (and how I feel about certain June days)<br /><br />You must really appreciate the warmth.TALONhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03205633556998220372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-534124540070958712.post-74421141326784623232010-08-01T02:28:55.111-06:002010-08-01T02:28:55.111-06:00Well I took my time- went over again just to chew ...Well I took my time- went over again just to chew on the lines- I enjoyed this -very beautiful imagery and photos! The watery reflections and fields! Now I understand August- it brought new depth- amazing! Well I just got back from a trip to the other side of the island. One area-though its known to get dry, has been in a major drought! We were in a hurry so I didn't get to take many pictures- but there are fields- dry as a bone. It may be worth it to post for comparison..have to see? A fine post Leenie-Kilauea Poetryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10565265326716182821noreply@blogger.com
