dry bed
it was that iffy time of year
a little green
mostly sere
the sun a pale shadow
of its summer self
spring rains were late
the creek was dead
grey rock exposed
lined with the leavings of winter's winds
the bed as dry as a bitter spinster's heart
i could have lain down
feeling right at home
my bed
lined with the leavings of shattered dreams
just as cluttered and hard as that empty sluice
~ copyright 2016 RC deWinter
A dry creek bed in Stratford, Connecticut, filled with leftover autumn, waits for spring rains to fall.

So interesting and colorful, the textural care is totally alluring, I feel a soft felting texture if I were to touch
Cheryl Rose
Beautiful rocks, fall colors and almost dry creek waters headed for the tunnel. Wonderful composition and a wonderful, fitting poem. Very nice, Gina! l/f/p
Anne Gifford
Another new and wonderful image, accompanied by yet another beautifully written, poignant commentary in the description. Lovely. like/f
Debra Lynch
I like that you manage to match the writing "to me this is poetry of the highest standards" with the amazing art works, when combined one can see they belong together. L/F/P
Hazel Holland
Love how you take something very ordinary and not particularly attractive and create beauty out of it, Gina! Your poem is powerful, too! L/F
Anthony Mwangi

You've created beauty out of dead leaves and a sewer. Amazing. I love the rich earth and jewel tones, and the light spots give the scene a sparkle and lightness–not something you'd expect to see. You've made it magic. : ) And your poem is powerful and so beautifully written Gina. Sad, but beautiful. l/f!

I look to celebrate the ordinary, Meg, I'm glad you appreciate it too. I appreciate the extravagantly kind encouragement.
