Why can't they?

(Note: The poem will make much more sense if you click on each individual photo--or save yourself the trouble and view the slide show.)


It started with half-formed thoughts.



















Celestial scribbles . . .




. . . smeared with cosmic paint on the canvas of her mind.



















Until, with a sudden flash of inspiration,




powerful ideas



















ignited possibility.




A concept exploded into existence,



















producing cosmic confetti




that filled her soul



















with light.





Why can't THEY?

Why CAN'T they?

WHY can't they?



Feel the fire?



















See the exquisite entities emerging from the flames?




Hear the harmonies?!




















Perhaps it is a question of perception?




Maybe her scintillating conversations . . .



















. . . are inconsequential specks to them?



Maybe her galaxies . . .


















Are their fuzzy poodles?




A post that ends with a poodle doesn't impact the reader with much of a bang, does it?!



















Or even a sizzle, really! :-(




More like a fizzle, if you ask me!
