Living Signs...


Poem Artwork

 ~Ampersands in Fingerprints~

Quiet reflections imprinted
contours of identity with a
sense for grounded family
binding through generations

Endless interweaving of
iconography with rivers,
trees for signs in growth
transcending to living

The sum is mortal unavoidably
greater than the parts hovering
between surface by depth in
leaving traces of one's hand
from being born in uniqueness

(c) Ampersands in Fingerprints

Seems like someone has crossed your palm with silver before you wrote this piece. It's a very interesting theme. In my experience features of hands get passed down the generations so whilst the approach is quite original the subject matter is plain to all of us.

As you have told us, we are born in uniqueness and tied together by the generations. We shouldn't lose sight of that.

This is exquisite, Vivian. Wonderful title, ampersands and fingerprints, my, my, how innovative.

I don't have the genealogy of generations behind me. I am the oldest of four brothers, all adopted.
