Spirit disregards containment
should I appear disconnected –
focus lacking substance –
it is just essence flowing
I am whisper on wind’s lips
veil of clouds on tropical shores
sun’s aureole fleeting
I’ll return soon enough…
(Written for Reena’s Xploration challenge: flow
and inspired by the artwork featured on …Bilocalalia… blog.

Fresh language: “sun’s aureole fleeting”.

I particularly llike this line: “I am whisper on wind’s lips.” And the image is wonderful. It reminds me of a painting school from the 1930s, but I don’t know what it was called.

Thanks Liz. I don’t know about the art style. This is one of my early watercolours, with a little digital help.
