The April Heights - Day 22 - #134




Still you are away
As I wait and watch for you
even silence speaks

****


We found his old still
In a shed behind his house
making libations

****


In the still waters
I see reflections of you
Always clear to me


****

  2. I pondered hard on how to use the alambic still, and couldn't make it work. Your middle one does it to perfection!

  7. Nice set. The 'still' also came to my mind, but not the inspiration for one. the shed would obviously be the hiding place for it :)

  8. I like the three different ways you used "still". And the still - silence connection in the first - with the alliteration - makes that one my favorite.

  11. So far, you are the only one who has used "still" as a noun--and I am laughing with delight!
