a statement-
I see in your stature
that fierce independence
is never far away
fuchsia, pinks and whites
merge with the grey
you redesigned that window
to usher in the orange-yellow sunshine
I walk out of the frame
corridor swallows me in
"that path can contain only you,
while I remain in the periphery"

Your poem speaks to her individual determination and the fact that she is alone. A deep poem. Well done.
Very emotional.
Happy Easter!
You have captured the essence of the picture, in both the past and present of the subject.
A strength and depth to your words that match the photo well.
A statement, of confidence and independence, an enjoyable read
lovely thank you
A poem with depth and a spirit of independence! Well written, Gautami.whid
the corridor swallowing her - i like
Ekphastic tour-de-force.
Yes you brought color to her and a sense of her survival through it all. Very well done. Gay
Lends strength to her individuality and her independence, but the end note does leave a sad ring to the matter, a loneliness stemming from that path...
Great statement of the journey and how we must walk alone at times. Beautifully honored the prompt! ~ Rose
Beautiful!
Captured well, the individual strength, yet the longing for sunlit days beyond the window frame.
shivers at the corridor swallowing...i wonder if the independence is forced?
A wonderful juxtaposition of then and now.
This is beautiful. The corridor swallows me in...sad.
Very powerful....the last lines grab at the heart. Beautiful
The closest to Greg's heart/art. Abstract, tender, chilling truthful, with a soulful grace.
I wish I were half a poet as your mind.
amazing..
A++
Good, solid work.
