share and share a Light
Shadorma: a Spanish 6-line syllabic poem of 3/5/3/3/7/5 syllable lines respectively. Thanks to Kira at Wrestling Life for introducing me to this and other Poetry Forms.
This blog reflects on human concerns and offers spiritual practices to deal with them.

Thank you!
Greg
This is beautiful, Greg.
Thank you!
Tide and Time Silent Foes…………. so true….. beauty in thought and in frame……… Wonderful share thank you
Thank you for such kind words!
Greg
first blush, caresses the Dragon in a wonderful light.. xx
And gratefully, on my daily bike route to work!
The entire post is a feast for the senses and leaves one wrapped in Feeling. I love how you graphically set up the words, your font is awesome. The look is just as important as the sound. You seem to have mastered both.
(BTW: love this picture, the face on the left driftwood piece is priceless, especially his big googly EYE.)
Thank you, again! And I must give YOU 100% credit! I was thrilled to read your Shadorma and ‘sprang into action’! The face! I had originally thought it might be a fossilized spout from an orca, but a face never occurred to me!
I LOVE that pic! The face is part wizard, part ghost. Gave chills down my spine. And the words were perfect for it. I wish my theme allowed for such interesting font choices. Soooo glad I lit a fire under your, um, creativity. BTW: went to Kira’s site and was amazed by it. You are right, she and her site are very inspirational, and since share some of the same issues and likes I am going to be an eager follower, so thank you for that!
Again, thank you! WOW – YOU are the one with imagination, seeing a Wizard Ghost combo there! All the Driftwood Dragons in my backyard garden are now … Wizards and Ghosts! 🙂
In just six lines you’re able to capture beauty perfectly. I am impressed, but not surprised because all of your poems that I have read breathe these images to life or create masterpieces within my mind’s eye. I truly am grateful that I came across this blog — it’s definitely one of my favorites. 🙂
Thank you Eva…you are making a shy dragon .. blush!
Greg
Hehe. You are quite welcome, Greg! ^_^
lovely work…
Thank you!
this was wonderful! It went perfectly with your photo…which is beautiful by the way. There is something about this Poetry Form that allows words to flow.
Thank you Kira! And I agree…sometimes you need to say slightly more than, perhaps, Haiku! And I am going to experiment with more poetic forms, thanks to you!
Greg
Yeah!! I can’t wait to see which ones you try 🙂
These words and the picture belong together, as if they’re incomplete without it. Coincidental perfection
Thank you! And those two words….’coincidental perfection’ gave me SO many instant thoughts to write about!
Greg
Beautiful words and image here. I am blessed with this image right outside my front windows…this is very close to me.
Thank you! You are very fortunate to have this view all the time! I ‘cycle’ past here, (walking my bike!), quite often! 🙂
Greg
So Beautiful feels like it is surrounded by soft subtle light
Take Care…

[…] Before you read my lines, I kindly request you to read Greg’s https://memoirsofadragon.wordpress.com/2013/05/16/beach-shadorma/ […]
I once thought I was not too bad with exotic poetry but you have shown me how very lovely and unique the Japanese forms can be. Perfect, shy
dragon.
Thank you again!
Greg
