I can't but like this one dear Gypsy, a fluid choir, chattering melodically and in great acapella harmonies, this is brilliantly written Gypsy, well done, blessings Roy

This was a great haiku, Gypsy, because it showed the action of the creek in the poem. I really enjoyed your words, which were so descriptive. Very well done and greatly enjoyed. Sorry I had to erase at least 80 poems and stories since I was gone from early last week until yesterday, thank goodness I am back, lol. Blessed be n hugs!

Gypsy,

Very nice presentation for your Ekphrastic Haiku club entry. You selected a most interesting illustration for others to paint their images in words.

Your meandering creek creates the sound of forest music.

Hi Gypsy,
the picture set it up... your words solidified the image in thought and a sense of feeling and auditory, especially following the zig zag looking at surrounds of the forest... and then the magic as the 'fluid choir' brings it all together as your satori.

Being someone who loves water movement, creeks, waterfalls, rapids in relation to the sound and hypnotic musical effect, this is just what one would imagine it to be.

Beautiful art form!

With our thoughts we create...
mind imagery.

Kind regards,
James.

It sounds indeed looks like a "zig zag creek"--
I am starting to get a feel for this ekphrastic thing... I do believe I'll give it a try here, pretty soon!

It is so unique to walk through the back woods of a forest. To stumble up on a creek cut through those woods surrounding many trees. To gather hickory nuts and a rock and sit there for hours. Getting your feet wet to cool down from the sun's heat in the south.

I like your poem- good presentation showing the zig zag of the creek- meandering through the forest- tying sound to the poem in the satori - good job! I had difficulty with that - nicely done â?"ï¸?

I like it! And it makes me think of the flow of musical notes that is smooth like the river's flow. Great use of alliteration and metaphor. That zigzag is really evident in the picture!
