Sea elf
took his
raspberry lantern
and journeyed to the
desert lands
to look for
new places to play,
new tunes to be
hummed,
and friends to be
made.
He crafted
his hut
next to
a whispering tree
and blew
his glass bugle
in a mad-fantastic
symphony
…of starlight
and
twilight
and the moon (to make them swoon)…
and if you don’t
believe me
you
should see
the
cobalt blue
of
never-give-up
sky
anemones.

Above is a cartoonified photo I took of Dale Chihuly’s Fiori di Como at the Bellagio in Las Vegas.
Chihuly’s work is amazing and even more inspiring to me is his story of
losing an eye in an accident and a few years later injuring his shoulder but
continuing on with his glass blowing dream.
Click the highlighted links to see/read more if you’re interested. Amazing, inspiring, beautiful stuff.
For Claudia’s Poetics-taking a ride on the color wheel at dVerse, which I am too late for so I'll be linking to
OpenLinkNight, which I’m a bit late to as well, but hey the doors are still open!
