Darkly haunting with two complementary pieces of exquisite artwork beautifully done.

A stunningly beautiful poem ~ an illustration that only adds to the mystical effect ~ Beautiful things are forever.
If ever a poem deserved a colored letter or two, it is now.

...far too many illustrated poems are forced to being mundane and cliche by art that makes me say "pull-eeze". (It's the whole "Hallmark curse" thing).
This is a wonderful and surprising exception!
I agree with Eve--not only is the poem great, but the illustration works beautifully with it--the colors are great and darkly autumnal, and the faded repetitions are like whispers or echoes. Lovely, Randi. :)
words, lovely picture, I'm always glad when I have something of yours to read.
thank you
Like the image and the words. I like the dark illustration and the poem is good enough to stand alone. I love when a good poem and illustration bump into each other and stick.
