I’m home from vacation full of more image poems (my whole trip was a juicy photographic orgy, if the truth be known) and in catching up with my reading today I was excited to read a post by Barbara Ganley talking about the inter-play between her blogging and her photography… how one will spring naturally from the other, and how the two enrich each other and together create something new.
So here are my two image poems, my "something new" flowing from holiday reveries – immersed in the beauty of nature with my Canon 40D eyes on…
Held within the stone, radiating light & absorbing heat … flesh against flesh, carved in situ, like a Michelangelo.
A merman emerging, dreaming this moment into being.
Totally absorbed in the sparkling element … through this baptism flesh leaves its solid form and enters the life of the spirit – just for that one perfect moment – awash between spheres and blessed by leaves – he floats in the liquid now.
Fabulous! I’m happy to learn Steve’s Merman capacity! Made me wonder if you are the water to his Merman or just a completely outrageous and powerful Mermaid! Hmmm.
Love,
Hawk Brother
🙂 The water definitely sounds its siren call for that Merman!
