Mount Ararat holds the wind
in the silence of snow peaks
where splinters of the ark rub
nails creaking in her cypress side
hope traversing mountain wafts
lavender, jasmine, and wisteria sing
woeful at an oath once absolute

Interesting viewpoint, Joni, that gets the gears turning in my brain. Well done.
Thank you Tim. The world is such a fearful and crazy place these days. It is hard for me not to feel the lack of love for others. I put my faith in God. I am grateful for each and every kind human. Have a blessed weekend my friend. 🦋❤️
Bless you, Joni. The world needs people like you.

You’re very welcome Joni! Always 🙏🏻😊🌹
A beautifully written share. What a mystery!❤️❤️☕️☕️
Thank you so much my friend. God’s promise means a lot to me. We are doing a good enough job ruining our beautiful world and killing each other all on are own. I always think we must just break God’s heart. Thank you so much for reading, big huge, love and lots of coffee too xoxoxxoxo
This is beautiful Joni. While it reads of hope, it still leaves a feeling of….a question. An uncertainty.
I guess it does, I have no doubts about my faith or religion my wise friend. However, I feel we are doing enough to destroy our world on our own. The state of the earth and all these killings are so out of hand. I hope you are having a blessed week my friend. Sending my love and hugs, Joni
Wonderful piece of writing Joni! I love how you work your words, so vivid! 💏
Thank you so much my lovely red haired friend. I appreciate your reading, thank you sweetie. Blessings to you and your honey. xoxoxo
Such an evocative poem! What the ark must have witnessed. Thank you for sharing your reverie, dear friend. Sending you my love, A. <3 <3 <3
Thank you so much for reading and such a gracious comment. Sending love, hugs and prayers for blessings to you and your family Anna. ❤️❤️🦋❤️
Beautiful imagery Joni!💖
What a beautiful picture. I guess the painter forgot about cats and dogs. It is so elegant… Love it.
So glad you like it my friend. I know I loved the painting too. Sending you a great big hug, and lots of love. xoxoxo
I wonder if it is a very big painting. I mean it looks like a very big one and it will look nice on a museum wall. LOL. I like those big painting in museums. Those ones that can occupy an entire wall of a room. They give you a very powerful feeling.
I think it was actually. Yes we went to the Prada in Madrid, Spain and I was mesmerized by the enormous size pieces that were there. It is overwhelming I agree and it is so powerful to look at something that old and that large and try to imagine the artist working on it. Sending my love kind friend. 🦋❤️🦋
Love the message, your splendid poem and choice of art! Hugs to you, dear Joni! ❤️
