A very nice poem written in eloquent language, well done with this one, Carolyn, not a bad poem to come back with, I love the descriptive words you have written, I guess it must be a specky place! Well done, blessings, Roy.

    Thank you Roy,
    Maureen has the joy of having a cabin on Bon Echo Lake in Canada. She writes of it often. I appreciate your fine comments.
    Have a wonderful day, we have a gorgeous morning. I have the door open to the screened porch and have been listening to the
    birds sing.
    Love, Carolyn

This is a lovely poetic description of the lake. I haven't seen the post of Maureen's, but I assume it also mentions the hourglass shape.

Mice alliteration in timeless tango and sensual shape.

    The picture of Bon Echo, used in Maureen's poem, appears in my visual mind as an hourglass shape. So glad you enjoyed this one Steve,

I had to lower this one so I could not see the illustration. That freed me to create my own visuals from the asymptotic joining of my creative subconscious with the meaning and (my) inferred meaning of your words.

First two lines took me to the year 1953 and the White Mountains of Hew Hampshire, and flume gorge near Mount Liberty.

For some reason, line three gave me a visual + a feel: it was of a river that moved but did not move. Interpretation: the water moved the river shore didn't.

Now skipping on to the end, my reaction was mood dependent, you were waxing beauty and I was after a giggle; and Bon Echo gave me one.

Do you remember the old Volkswagen Scirocco TV add where a Scirocco auto was tooling along in the distance on a mountain road? I came up with a sound-track for it, "Little scirocco haw do you do? hello ... hello ... hello." (echoing all over the place,

Carolyn;
I enjoyed this short poem in reference to Maureen's poem Natures Gift all the Beauty" and I enjoyed both of them very much.
Your imagination was truly miraculously profound and very inventive and creative blogger imagery was very dominantly descriptive and elegantly expressive throughout.
Thank you for sharing and posting this for everyone to read imago blood be with you always.
