Totally Optional Prompts for today: Regional Poetry
cuddled by rising forests
the valley floor,
criss-crossed by streams
stippled by glacial lakes,
yields to look-at-me roofs
contrived basalt cascades
ancient pines stockpiled
on Italian marble hearths
panes flash from naked hills
while the moon looks away
Watercolor by Sue...

Atmospheric. You captured the place perfectly.
one of the most wonderful things about living where i do.. is no one can build anything for thousands of acres surrounding my home... my dad is a builder,, i grew up in "development houses" and i am ever so thrilled to say i may very well never have to look at one... let alone live in one ever again....
this was an excellent voice... very original...
I especially like the contrast between the two. Plus the use of stippled.
I like the first line very much
There's always a price to pay for beauty
Great. Vivid!
I love:
"yields to look-at-me roofs"
And your watercolor, as always, makes me a big jealous of your talent! Beautiful.
Wonderfulwords! and I love the picture too...
