Woven Tangerine Orchids

Woven Tangerine Orchids. QUOTE....I wish i could take language and fold it like cool, moist rags, I would lay words on your forehead. I would wrap words on your wrists. "There, there" my words would say....Or something better. I would ask them to murmur, "Hush" and "Shh, shh it's all right." I would ask them to hold you all night. I wish I could take language and daub and soothe and cool, Where fever blisters and burns, Where fever turns yourself against you. I wish I could take language and heal the the words that were the wounds you have no names for. J.C. copyright by Michael Forbus

Ooooh, I like this! It's like this flower is looking into tiny square mirrors, reflecting its inner cosmic beauty! Good effect on this one, Miguel!!! Your words are equally reflective....you embrace language so gently, yet passionately... as if it were a lonely child.

Artist Reply: Brenda, thank you so much for your sweet words on my little work and especially the tender words on the prose. You are a great lady. miguel

your passion and devotion are so tangible you are so right about being a little more playful , it is gud for the soul art shud be akin to music

Artist Reply: Angelina, so appropriate, angel being a derivative of your name, I had the Floyd blasting in my ear while doing this piece. Your right about being playful, I am trying to break out of my right mind and seep to the left. I am in serious training with Professor Sprout, my hero, Have a fabulous day and don't forget to write. miguel
