fluttered closed
against his cheek
her wet eyelids

    "her wet eyelids" speaks volumes, Marie. I love boiling a story down to just this - just enough. Lovely.

    Dear Karen,

    I find it is in the boiling that enables
    me to blanket myself in the words, thoughts
    of an author.

    Thank you.

    Marie

    I haven't read any Nabokov in a couple of years - the last was The Defence - but these are very evocative. I love the haiku form but haven't the spiritual discipline for it myself. I suppose I don't need to say that I like the idea of taking some other text as a jumping off point. Thanks for joining me over at Secret Poems. I look forward to more of your work.

    Dear Mairi,

    Oh, but your poetry does reveal a spiritual
    discipline, Mairi. I am addicted to literature,
    birthing other pieces of literature. Tremendous
    to have found your exciting blog.

    Thank you.

    M.

    I just reread your profile and noticed your obsession with fine pens. You might check out this site - http://thistlepens.com/. I have two of this man's pens and my daughter has a beautiful perfume applicator to carry her Chanel #5 to school in. Wonderful workmanship and a real eye for style.

    Dear Mairi,

    I just took a delightful tour through
    Thistle Pens. The fountain pen is making my
    heart beat wildly. Thank you, Mairi for
    sending me this link. For the Holidays I
    shall treat myself. Your daughter sounds
    like a supreme class act.

    Marie
