I am the tuning fork, a shimmering frisson of vibration calling the heart to harmony
I am also the rock, though, throwing ripples concentrically across once calmed waters
Peace and chaos vie for my soul, my meditation song pulled from the place of light
Spilling haphardly across the courtyard where I tend tightly ordered rows of flowers
Regimental form forced on blood red roses contrary to their petals’ better nature,
Never certain which will win the day, tranquility or turmoil, I toil with hope and a smidgen of fear.
I am the tuning fork–nice. Are those your photos? (K)

Thank you. No, not my photos. I found them on Pinterest.

They blend well with the enigmatic elements of your poem.

I love browsing Pinterest. My only concern is that most don’t come with an artist’s credit. If there’s one available, I post it.

Hey, when are you gonna meditate on giving your “fine” content a chance to sing a different “theme” song? Check out this new and free theme… https://wordpress.com/themes/affinity/ …it’s not just for weddings. It takes advantage of the Content Management tools of WordPress. Per your response concerning my last reply to your previous Arts and Crafts post…the business side of both Web and legacy publishing starts with optimizing the presentation and focus of already existing content. If you find using the content management side of WordPress too difficult, then the vagaries of e-books, on demand publishing… the myriad ways of working toward getting your work out to the public just might be something you’d want to skip that stone over. Start looking at your content (work) as a whole, not just the next post.
Regards,
Doug
