I really love the contradiction between the oak and willow... we are indeed a lot inside.
I love every line! And the photo.
"weeping willow on some days
an oak on others"
I love that!
Great choice for photo! I love the idea of describing self as tree. LOVE these lines:
weeping willow on some days
an oak on others
This was inspired "weeping willow on some days
an oak on others" - great job!
Well just so beautifully put!
Enjoyed this so much, I , too, liked the line "weeping willow on some days, an oak on others",,you've painted a portrait of an interesting woman,,,
Intriguing to close on "paradox" I like the mention of tapestry...so true...lives can be like this...great metaphor, Gemma.
Aren't we all--or at least the most interesting of us, anyway. I love your weave of contrasts and of smooth and nobbly images. Not to mention the striking image--the heartwood that shines so palely when all else is tripped away.
Well-played, well-written. I love every line, especially how you tied it together at the end with "paradox".
