Cauldron of my mind
Waves in resounding plea
Sensibilities, passions and quest
Echoing refrain calls calls to SELF.

ROSE IS A ROSE IS A ROSE IS A ROSE" SAPPHÓ !!!
Song of the Rose
For Zeus chose us a King of the flowers in his mirth,
He would call to the rose, and would royally crown it;
For the rose, ho, the rose! is the grace of the earth,
Is the light of the plants that are growing upon it!
For the rose, ho, the rose! is the eye of the flowers,
Is the blush of the meadows that feel themselves fair,
Is the lightning of beauty that strikes through the bowers
On pale lovers that sit in the glow unaware.
Ho, the rose breathes of love! ho, the rose lifts the cup
To the red lips of Cypris invoked for a guest!
Ho, the rose having curled its sweet leaves for the world
Takes delight in the motion its petals keep up,
As they laugh to the wind as it laughs from the west.
Poem by Sappho, Lesbo, Ereso, 640 a.c.circ.
Thanks
Thank you for your visit, casa da poesia and your most welcomed post. Indeed, a rose.
ROSEMARIE-
as the memory flows and it's last swirls of truth remind you - know that all is as it should be and that you are all love.

Gail, Your words are very much the intent of my expression, of word, of image. In the early morning hour when this post was completed, I felt a calming and loving resolve.
Much love on to you,
Rose Marie
Rose Marie, did you intentionally post this at 11:11??:)
Your art expresses the perfection that always exists in the Universe, and is ours for the creating.
Namaste, Linda
Thank You Linda, Actually the time here in NY was 1:11. I, as with yourself, listen to all the feelings and impressions that come my way, and respond with word, with image, with an ongoing query and quest, an ever present gratitude for Creation. Thanks for your post - pleased to share that feeling of validation that was brought your way today.
Best always,
Rose Marie
