Silver

Rate: 26 Flag

resounding, bounding, pounding fast

past rounding, having found

the last

at last

and fast rewound

replenish in the full repast

Very nice. And how I love that Emmylou.
Oooooohhhhh looooook shinnnnnyyyyyy stuuuufffff!
Love Emmylou and all things silver. R
Here's to the beauty of Silver!
I ::love:: silver! I am a silver girl - liked the Nambe, the gowns, the gorgeous hair (jealousing about the women who get that gorgeous silver hair)! Thanks for this Kathy...
Wow. There are some damn fine poets hanging around here. This is gorgeous--a silvery poem in words and pictures. Did I say "wow"?
All the different incarnations of one color...Love the way you linked them together.
You had me at Emmylou... and then at the silver couple. Lovely.
Oh! And the energy of your words! What a silver rush.
I love this poem--the words flow so beautifully. And the images are great too--except for the one of the filling--that made me cringe :)
Dazzled by it all, and laughing out loud when you snuck in the silver tooth filling!
Shining like a Christmas bauble. Hi-ho!
The last Youtube ...silverbird by lindsay was nice. Had never heard it.
Rated!
You silver-tongued Devil you~I read the poem three times and I'm going back again. This was great!
R~~
Amaze we readers amazement
I recalled a old timeless proverb
At a perfect time - apples are served
A delicious ripe fruit is served on silver
Silver platters and sterling silver character
I don't know why the Shaker sect was celibate
I worked as a Shaker woodworker and made boxes
Those oval hat boxes were soaked in water for hats
The copper nails, steamed thin veneer wood, brooms,
simple furniture designs, frugality, community, love,
and all seemed to get pretty crazy? Mother Ann Lee.
huh?
You made me wonder` What ever happens in the greater, unseen realm scheme?
The Shaker?
Spirituality?
Artistically?

I've no idea.
Oh Angelic.
O mystery.

High hoe.
silver ho.
O Light.
And I myself wonder, why is it we don't turn gold as we get old?
Why and who knows?
I dare get hooked on a koan.
Silver. Sam Adams loved silver.
He was a silversmith by day trade.
Sam Adams made beautiful teapots.
platters, and organized barley growers.
Sam Kass is the White House private chef.
Sam Adams ask farmers to boycott whiskey.
Firewater was shipped from foreign gooses?
There's a painting of Sam Adams with pot pipe?
No!
Kathy, FusnaA, etc.,
He's at a pub called` Green Dragon Inn Saloon.
The image is Sam Adams with a unfinished pot.
A Silver Teapot. I am not starting a bad rumor.
Behave.
Just lovely; a treat for my eyes and a treat for my mind.
I LURVE silver. Especially my silver hair.
One is silver and the other gold... we are all entranced by Emmylou. And you, Kathy. Have a lovely holiday.
That is some silver! Coolness, well done!
Oh my gosh: You included La Tour d'Argent! How very clever! It almost slipped me. Brilliant!
