Inspired by Emily Dickinson

poem I wrote

How much, I wonder

of a moment is created?

Crafted from crafts and impressions-

sunlit revisions.

the schoolyard bell sat down with pencil boquets

and yellow wallpaper.

Told to write-

to craft and create a moment of figments and filliments

burnt black as eboney.

Told to create a moment

to capture it firmly.

turn us from dust to air-

to breathew life into graphite

and back again.

Typo second last line. Thanks

What a fine painting of words you have created and displayed here, your setting is both inviting and visual,

' Crafted from crafts and impressions- sunlit revisions. the schoolyard bell sat down with pencil bouquets and yellow wallpaper'

Hope my review did not offend as you haven't responded to it?!

Being an artist, I know about graphite, pencils, yellow wallpaper and impressions. This poem is like an expressionist painting, though; abstract but with meaning too.

(Tip: Is 'ebony' the correct spelling? and next to the last line, I'm not sure the meaning of the word 'breathew' - perhaps you could clarify?) :)

Great job!
