e days in life when poetry escapes us--the words are there inside, seething and confused, and we can't put them in order at all.I don't like the poetry that comes out on those days--troubled, ugly, unhappy. Today has been one of those days; but I don't want to share that.
Instead, I will follow Wi
lliam's lead and post a visual poem, snapshots of things that have been beautiful today, little moments that save me. They are taken on a tiny camera; they are not a photographer's work by any means; and they may mean nothing to anyone else: but at least I know that I tried, on a pretty much no-good day, to contribute a little beauty to the world around me.

Katie,
thanks
to you, a little
beauty went
a long way this
day.
I agree. You’ve succeeded in words and pictures both. And I pity the poor soul whose heart doesn’t leap at picture number three. Sheer magic.
And just like that she turns her blog into something more than just verse... ;)
Ha! guess what the word verification is! bards.
I'm new to you blog, Katie via William's blog, and entranced by your poetry and visual imagery. Thanks
