Resonance
Resonance
a wildflower
at the edge of a stream
bobbing in time to the water...
a child on a swing
shifting her weight
until her feet touch the sky...
a car stuck in snow
rocking back and forth
to break itself free...
it was right after kent state
one of my physics profs
filled a tabletop aquarium
with water -
lifted a corner, set it down
sending a little wave across and back...
he lifted it again, set it down
again
and again
yet again
til water splashed onto the counter...
make little waves, he said -
make waves

Re: Resonance
wonderful poetry, tied to a recollection
This piece has real power
to bust open the dam and let the words flow downstream

to bust open the dam and let the words flow downstream
the death of empathy is the birth of barbarism

Re: Resonance
Beautiful moments-
reason is over rated, as is logic and common sense-i much prefer the passions of a crazy old woman, cats and dogs and jungle foliage- tropic rain-and a defined sense of who brings the stars up at night and the sun up in the morning---
