It sounds really good!
Both the poem and the port!
That marks the end of the evening, I think...
Beautifully done!
Your imagery is always so compact and clever. Evey syllable is so well placed. LOVE!!!
Nighty night!
So clever - any port in a storm! The rose works well too, as the woman has an aging aspect. k.
Time for some beauty sleep. Nice!
I agree with Selma... simple, concise and every image is of a withdrawing, a closing and an ending. That's how I saw her too.
I love that you included the rosy expression of the artwork in your haiku, Tumblewords. Endings always hold a soft sort of sadness. Thank you for sharing this fabulous work. =D
Yea,
"it's over" Is all over this painting
You've made every word count, as usual Sue. Love the painting too.
there is much heaviness in your verse...i hope she gets a final bow...
You capture that image so beautifully and so concisely.

This verse is very evocative; now how about a short story... what happened?
It reminds me of the stamps I bought at the PO the other day of poets.
