As is so often the case with your poetry you have managed to suggest more meaning than the mere words themselves can hold. Somehow you have captured not just the essece of shifting iridiscence but mankind's endless fascination with softly shifting light. I was captivated by this one.

Gorgeous, mister. favorite triplet...
something almost explained innate
listening to conch shells tell tall tales
torturing next stone unturned

I like the hard marbled surface to this, my friend. There is a certain substance, almost granite -like to its surface but searching in its depth.
Bravo.
One thing I think essential to change, though small;
''infinite answers in a blinks glimpse''
''blink's'' if associated with rather than a flower.
Gives it a more profound meaning.

Always a pleasure to read your work, my brother. I've got a five for you.

My best wishes,
RG

Thank you for the collection of pictures, and I picked up a new word--"nacreous"--but it isn't in my dictionary. I liked your appealing to our senses with the reference to the very visual "mother of pearl" and the sound from the "conch shell". Cheers- Joan

    narcreous...or nacre...is mother of pearl...known as...-smile-...its an organic-inorganic...it makes up the outer coating of pearls. strong, resilient...and iridescent. hard to make out exact.

    I wrote this of course listening to the song. thinking about a meeting to come...-smile-...I didn't know all that until...i looked up mother of pearl. thank you J...just got home. love to you...Michael

    Thank you so much for the teaching me about the word and more about mother of pearl. I relish lifelong learning--another bonus from FanStory. Have a restful evening and end of the week- Joan

This post is a bit beyond me. I read it twice, but could not come up with your meaning. I will have to think on it. The Mother of pearl makes me think of "The pearl of great thought."

Loved the way you came full circle on this poem, ending where you began. I read it twice to grasp all that you have contained in it and probably need to read it again to see what other gems I may have missed. You have excellent word choices.
