*image from boingboing.netThe wind sweeps down
from the far corners of the world
gusting across the plains,
whistling through the trees.
The gales moan and howl
as they batter and chap
those they toss along.
The blustering gives way
to a haunting melody
gently beckoning
as it softly swells
and draws those
who fall under its charm.

I am inspired. Do you think I could make a really cool sculpture out of ice shot glasses?
Wow. . . that is one AMAZING ice-sculpture. . .
such an amazing verse, inspired by the ice sculpture...
Art for Art's sake!
Wow! That is an amazing sculpture.
Beautiful words too. :)
what an amazing sculpture... the lines are so natural and you can almost hear the song she's playing on that skin flute
i mean flute.
Swell poem, especially when paired with the amazing ice sculpture. Brrrrrrrrrrr!
Wow!
The poem and the pic are both really cool!
such concepts in ice are so foreign to this florida girl! i'd have to see it to fully appreciate it. have a great weekend!
p.s. if you see a spike in your stats this weekend, it's me digging for interview question material!
Love the words and the sculptures!
I think this is awesome!!! :) Very cool Friday 55 :)
I wanna go!
I hate winter, but I'd stand out in the cold to enjoy that!
Oh, a beautiful 55 to match the beautiful picture. Nicely done. :D
I love windpoems. Actually it was in a poem called The North Wind which I first told my husband I loved him :-) And this amazing ice sculpture definitely reminds me of the North Wind!
What a wonderful poem and such an amazing sculpture. Very nice Lime.
I have attended Winter Carnival up in our Upper Peninsula in Houghton Michigan. The build the sculptures in January and the Carnival is the about the last weekend in January. They have some amazing sculptures up there. The link above does not do the sculptures justice at all.
Anyway I am amazed at the people that are able to do these wondrous carving and, for that matter, mighty fine poetry too.
Oh yeah Trini...That was beautiful!
Wonderful 55, and wonderful pic.
Thanks for always aqdding a touch of class to Friday.....G
Wow, that's impressive.
Wow! I can't wait for the Fairbanks Ice festival next month.
Very cool! The photo reminds me of Japan in my childhood.
I've never seen such! Glad I stopped by.
And that's a lovely poem, too!
Awesome verse Lime. I can feel the chill. Nicely turned indeed.
And the image is cool too.
Lime, that is so cool!
I think what's really important here is to note that I was first chair flute all through junior high.
Until that bitch Melissa Fox edged me out the last year.
I quit.
I feel cold just looking at that, your sweeping wind isn't helping either.
love it Lime. by coincidence, my Sunday Art Review is on snow art sculpture.
Happy Sunday

woah, thats incredible...
how ever do human beings
carve such magnificence
out of just frozen water?
i'm blown away,
pun intended,
and your 55 is
a perfect match
for such visual beauty...
OK, I just got a case of the shivers thinking about how cold and for how long it must be to carve such a sculpture! ;)
