The river and flowers by the river

estuary’s calm

reflecting its path

the river, clear

Eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it~ Norman Maclean

morning glories

 the god who hides  

now and then

"How I long to see

among dawn flowers,

the face of God."

frozen plums

morning heat ~

the sweet temptation

of frozen plums

frozen plums – so irresistible as  William Carlos Williams says in ‘This is just to say’ – A poem I love so much...And it has often been a subject of analysis among us, so is any other imagist poem by WCW. I don't know, a poet friend of mine said, above all it speaks of the poet's selfishness....but i think it presents human nature in a good-humoured way. And more over it is the image, the poetic feel of words, the simple, crisp and clear language and the complex emotions that it brings forth, is what draws me to poem ~ oh well, no dissecting anymore. 

‘This is just to say’

I have eaten

the plums

that were in

the icebox

and which

you were probably

saving

for breakfast

Forgive me

they were delicious

so sweet

and so cold

~ William Carlos Williams

Blackbirds

the song

that comes and goes ~ 

blackbirds

‘I do not know which to prefer, 

The beauty of inflections, 

Or the beauty of innuendoes, 

The blackbird whistling, Or just after’

 ~ Wallace Stevens

‘And let them pass, as they will too soon,

With the bean-flowers' boon,

And the blackbird's tune,

And May, and June!’ 

~ Robert Browning
