Word and Photo Potpourri (a Collage Poem)

Life is busy. It's still easier to cut and paste. 

A Collage Poem

Hot & Cool

You are
on-the-go beauty
everyone loves
on the street.
You return passion to promise.
You guarantee
40 pages of decadent
secrets. You
transform
my wet
soul.

Keeping it short tonight, so I can get back to my callings.

Get Rid of Everything (except Writing and Reading)

I have been focused on things other than poetry lately and I miss it. 

At the same time, I’ve been constantly sitting with words, reading and writing, writing and reading. I needed something active, so I pulled out my collage supplies and put together a couple of new cards.

Handmade Cards

I am making some cards to sell at a craft fair next month and thought I would show a sampling. The nature photos are from my trip this summer to Montana, Idaho, and Yellowstone. The horse photos were taken at Copper Horse Riding Ranch, and the pink one is collage style.

All this card-making is making me hungry to create chapbooks.

If you have any of your own artwork on your site, feel free to post a link in the comments.
