Ode To A Terra Cotta Collage

________________________________________________________________________________________________

You can see the sea  symbolically
chevroned at the base of the terra cotta
and you gotta see the fish swimming
and the curlicues frothing as eagles dip
down into the water but who 
will rise to the gold prize?
Let us award it
to your eyes.

  1. I had lentils for dinner.

  2. Dearest Paula Petard
    I sincerely hope your lentils
    were served in a terra cotta bowl.

    Were there any fish swimming in it?

  3. These lintels make me hungry. Door jamb.
    Lentil often made with ham.
    But will not eat cute little fish.
    Will cook vegetable soup if you wish.

    1. As long as you do not
      add any terra cotta
      vegetables

  4. The link, I think
    makes it clear
    that this art lives
    above a window

  5. All art lives above a window,
    metaphorically because the window
    to the artist's soul can reside
    in the deepest depths
    of the subterrain

    1. If only my pockets were
      as deep as your musings.

    2. I would settle for having pockets
      only half as deep
      as my "musings."
