Wit and whimsy--fantasy calls makes me visualize girl in the great pic picking up the phone--pen awakens makes me see it stretching itself. Cheers. LIZ

From Imagination to Ink
by Y. M. Roger

Hello, Yvette,

Ohhhh .... perfect following to my couplet.

It's funny, I was checking the well received poems and I saw your art piece and it looked so much like mine... LoL I thought it was quite a coincidence.


Great job, thank you very much for contributing this beautiful poem.
Hugs,
Gypsy

    Great minds think alike, yeah? :) :) I'm so glad you enjoyed this one, Marival -- I am so very far behind, but this week I WILL get caught up because my OCD self NEEDS some sort of 'even sailing' for a while. Classes (such as they are) started last week, I'm done my part of 'realtor prep' on the house, and I'm getting the two boys packed up and back to school this week/weekend.... so fingers crossed I'll be there soon!! ;) Hooray! :) Thanx so much for these lovely stars, my lady, they mean the world coming from you - promise to be 'back in and involved' next week... :) ;) You take care out there ! :) Yvette

very good, madame! and very true. that is just how I feel when I get an idea - fantasy or not. Also, a very pretty accompanying picture which is a good pick!
I'm glad you weren't too busy to write this lovely "pome."
Can't tell if this is for a contest or not, but if it is, good luck!
Katharine

    Done getting the house ready and all the packing that can be done until she sells. Will be 'packing up' the two boys this week to get them back off to school at the end of the week. ;) :) :) Fingers crossed the husband finishes that damn garage soon... ugh!! :)

This resonated well with me because you touch on writing poetry. I like fantasy call that awakens poet's pen setting visions free. Amazing photo and artistic presentation. Thank you for introducing us to Renga, it was a delightful experience.

That's an awesome follow up for Gypy's imagination poem.
I like the awakening pen - the call of the wild (fantasy) - and the idea that vision is free when it's fully expressed in art.
It's amazing how this renga started with much more 'concrete' things and now it's moving towards more abstract concepts :)!
Great contribution!

Yes, it's true. This is a good addition for the book. The picture is so off the wall with all those fingers fluttering as she muses and then the words that match.

Hello Yvette.

Your poem meets the style standard for a 5-7-5 poem. I don't understand the renga part and I don't communicate with Gypsy blue rose. She muted me several weeks ago.

Your poem essentially represents the process of writing as it turns your imagination into a verbal vision. Nice job.

Letting our imagination free to conjure up a scene for others to enjoy is a poet's mantra and I enjoyed your musings here Yvette. A fine contribution to the book, love Dolly x

    Thank you, Beautiful Grandma!! :) :) Yvette We made a few trips to a storage room to make the house look 'less cluttered, etc" so I didn't even get to the computer - ugh!! I am determined to get caught up today even though we're packing and bring the two boys here back to school Thursday and Friday (on top of everything else - ugh!) I'll get there though -- I think.... lol! :) Take care of you!! ;) Yvette
