“Woman in a Garden” sits where “grass ripples and deepens”—makes me want to sit there with you”Self Portrait “—key phrases which speak volumes, “roots dig deep, unseen “
“half-seen flickers”
“then another, unfolding branches”
“Darkness grows”
“The tree stands silent,”
“ Until the light shifts,
“until it sings again”.
Keep on Elizabeth ! Looking forward to next Wednesday!
my favorite line: "flowers, contained and passionate as sonnets, wait, cradling their seeds, for the earth's embrace." Love this image of anticipation and beauty, needing the earth to grow further but not needy. self-contained.
A lot of fun to read.
