Down the hill her eyes
dance glancing over
the clover inhaling the scent
of sweet alison – the ocean
glimmers the beautiful
beryl of Irish eyes and
the sky, the sea, the earth
manifests as a confection
to her senses
Daily life is as pushing
stone up a cliff
but nature is a plum
ripe and glorious in it’s
burst of flavor, a remedy
to her bereft senses and
at the end of the working day…
a feast.
Charlotte Hamrick 
This was so beautiful…I can’t pick out a favorite part, I loved it all!

Daily life is pushing a stone up a cliff – a very nice image – it works well to then give the reader a rest at the end of the poem.

Thanks, y’all! I don’t know why the whole Irish thing sprang to mind with these words but it worked out.

I like how the scene because of its delicate beauty becomes a delicacy, something to be consumed that is not in fact consumed, but remains, intact, to be enjoyed again.

Terrific – rolling the stone uphill is surely evocative of many days and the lovely scents and sights make for great juxtaposition.
