above the fruited plain
When words
elude,
pig-tailed lass and
pup
gather scenery,
paints, and brushes
to honor
independence
declared
and exercised.
Freedom
of speech
is grand!
And…
Can
spacious silence be
a fertile field of transformation?
A
foothill
where grace grows
and flourishes
before sowing begins?

Hi Gail!
So nice to be reminded of the nemonic I learned a while ago: ROY G BIV. Red-orange-yellow-green-blue-indigo-violet! Pig-tailed lass and pup indeed seem to have fixed their gaze on the rainbow overhead.
“Can spacious silence be a fertile field of transformation?” This rhetorical question brings to mind meditation. And I would agree!
All so nicely done in today’s Born Free Newsletter.
Beautiful artwork Gail! I love the poem too. Thank you.
