a young romanian poet published two years ago a book of poems like a diary of her pregnacy, 'the sky in my womb'. but I like yours much more! :-) I like the subdued emotionality here, such intensity... and the connection to the sea as the womb of the world is fabulously crafted.

Marion McCready said...

hi roxana, that's very nice of you to say so! I'm glad you like it, thanks.

Some nice images here but I'm struggling to see ... let's not call it 'meaning' ... the story here. Who is the 'you' that shines for example? A bit too impressionistic for my tastes.

Marion McCready said...

hi jim, it's my usual mash between nature images and something else, the something else here is my recent ultrasound and the 'you' is the baby.

Jim Murdoch said...

I would never have picked that up in a month of Sundays. And I know you're pregnant.

lol, maybe I ought to change the title, cheers.
