Attempted Word Pictures

'I wish our clever young poets would remember my homely definition of prose and poetry; that is prose; words in their best order; - poetry; the best words in the best order'
-S.T. Coleridge

With this, and the thought that less is sometimes more in mind, I've attempted to draw some short word sketches.

Scent of Chamomile After Rain
Honey
And spice -
Wholesome,
Clean,
And good.

Garden
Green islands
In a furrowed sea
Churned by careful plows.

From The Aspiring Bard
