Sometimes I believe that there is an energy, or that there are some sort of threads in the universe that bring persons together in love even if for just moments. I wrote this poem for/about a woman within a fairly loose group of quite fine artists to which I belong, several years ago. She … her icon simply inspired the poem. We have never met. We were not even close. But circumstances made us close in a strange manner, but close none the less, perhaps as artists together. I never showed her this. Her Name is Laura mercer and she is on Facebook. We are connected and I am Liz Rice-Sosne on Facebook. I shall now for I have always felt that it WAS her. Initially I did this with all different sized fonts and letters dark and not so dark along with symbols. I cannot seem to do this here upon WP.
Laura Star Rain
She has dark moments …
She is one
… toying with her flames. Turning the knobs
This way and that … that way and this….off then on……………..
Colors.
She is all about
color. She must have it.
It … fuels her.
Long flowing
Strokes of sensuous color … watery … rain from stars.
Snails in a galactic state of oceanity
Permutations of ??quarks?? born near
Water hamlets …
Badland flat rocks … for salamanders to dance upon.
Here is one of her whimsical and lovely paintings the sort of which inspired me.
