Poem Artwork


i saw a rabbit in the clouds
as well as an old crone
laying on her back, looking up,
mesmerized by the sight
above my head.

towering cumulonimbus
clouds built a home for my
imagination to take flight;
borne on the wind, i was
given clearance.

we played all afternoon, but soon
it was time to return
and ground myself to gravity ...
how i hated to leave
my new-found friends.

they promised to be back on the
tail of a cold front or
dryline; all i had to do was
step outside and believe
that i can fly.

(c) 2006, Karla Dorman.

The title is quite an attention grabber, Karla! It surprised me that it is about clouds when I started to read. You soar with the kind of imagination that a poet needs. The discipline of visualization in art work is very beneficial to producing writing. When we can visualize, then we can write poetry like this. I am very visual and work with inner imagery letting the images come at their own gait. Good verses!

Karla~

It is interesting what your mind can do when we take a little break from working and worries about storms and letting positive thoughts remove you from the drudgery of life and fear of things you can't control, isn't it? Fantastic flight of fancy and accompanying picture; perfection! BRAVA; vey well done!

(((HUGS))) and much love, your twin, Karen Lynn. :D

But you do fly Karla. With your dreams and poetry your creativity takes you aloft with ease and when you return you always give us a personal glimpse so very eloquently.
Love and peace,
Susan

Believing is the name of the game. How the hell you know you can't fly if you don't spread those arms, take a running start and jump off the cliff. Gotta love it!
