A place to gather words before they get lost.

Lit wicks, by daylight - the lamplight shines a shadow into the twilight

Early morning dew on a spider's web; painting glowing sunrise orbs

Interior painting requires a brush of deliberate delicacy,

a careful movement covering up what's now past;

some layers, never last

Kick-drum, rhythmic beat - the poem hits an odd meter, settling in groove

for Algot

Resting on the cusp where mountain trail meets big sky, clear air cleanses you

A puddle is river

is teardrop, a creature cropped from beryl sky, a universe of rain

is lifeline, resisting August heat sunshine, an anecdote to pain

is mirrored glass, a moment for reflection, past, a thought within a frame

is surface tension, a pin off-kilter, apprehension, a dream by another name

Red pigment, hidden and obscured by Green's presence, edges to the stage

A figure of straw waits in the field, impatient, as crows carry on

A moon, lingering, rests for a while in the sky in a sea of stars

How the day slides by. nearly done. watercolor spent. — poem by Tellio

Tellio, my friend, Terry, again, I'm forever thankful of the moment My quill connected with yours, for we are forEver dipping nibs of wonder into ink

a TIME acronym poem of appreciation for #OpenWrite
