SA: Ardor... I looked this word up. The word spirit
came up. I love this word. I'm actually currently
writing about spirit in a story. Spirit has many
connotations. I find this poem above brings out a
good connotation for what I like about spirit. The
intensity, the passion, also, meshed with well-being
and wildness. As in the horse's spirit couldn't be
broken. The horse is alive, well, and in touch with a
beauty that the flowers in the field with all their
colors glorify as the sun's ray's dashing across the
rippling creek. Blue's, white's, pink's, green - long
live this green shading and toning, darker and
brighter, and as this "empty prattle" can go no
further - I bow, in honor.
aaawweee...
The sheer strength
The explosion into
- a million pieces.
trees, shhhhh... everywhere.
the spirit of the woods,
SA
