This week's Poetry Jam has asked us to write about a Still Life. Well, I've had my Still Life posted on this blog for over a year, and I just 'remodeled' and decided to remove it. Making its reappearance, I present to you my Circular Still Life, a gathering of objects found in my office, some of which are souvenirs of Dublin. The complete collection consists of my lovely fern, a "That was Easy" button from Staples, a coaster from Connemara, an empty bottle that once held Tipperary water, a de-stress ball in the shape of a globe, and a few extra pretzels tossed in for flavor. ; )
Circular Still Life

Circular Still Life Haiku
Through simplicity
circularity's presence
gathers the spirit.

I like that. I've read it a few times now. Everything is in flux, it's true.
ReplyDeleteYes, Jessica! "That was easy!" ; )
