14 Carat Day
today is a special
day as is every day but today is circled on the calendar
plans were made sometime ago today we lay before you
for you to see what
has long been sleeping inside of us now on the outside
we made them
visible by the sequencing of the paint we hope you will find them
nifty
if we look back we
see all the events that have led up to this day
a golden
chain everything connected that day last summer
we met by the
river the sun was warm on the skin we separated
going our own
way on different sides of the bridge we picked our spot
we wore sun hats we
sketched until it was late we ate cherries for a snack
soon enough it was
hot we looked for shade
we were beginning to
boil in the hot sun too much for our lily white skin
there were other experiences we painted it was a 14 carat day
one of many in the
chain that led to this day we'll pause
we'll wear our best
shoes we'll take a look we have invited you to see
today is a 14 carat
day

Brilliant, and truly magical. I felt the emotions weaving through, so vividly. Well done!
What a wonderful invitation that is...this poem shines like the brightest iof diamonds xo
Love the imagery here...a 14 carat day :-)
Wonderful, the remembering of the day of sketching and cherries, and the more recent day when all the artists spread out their work for all to enjoy. Lovely......
A 14-carat day--gotta love that!!
