Look at the image carefully. Let your eyes rest on it, then try to see through it, focusing behind it. Then write a poem based on your reaction. Any style, any length, rhyming or not, just no prose please. This is round 2 of a six round contest. Entries are welcome for any of the rounds, not necessary to enter them all.
Contest is Over

- Final notes: Thank you to all entrants for the time you took to look, and think, and write. I made this window to represent Growth, and the words that accompany it are " the green fuse curls, unfurls..". The motif is a Maori koru, which comes from the unfurling of a fern frond, and I played with it, turning it this way and that, up and down, until it had made a face in the middle which could be that of Tane, the Maori god of the forests. He loved to laugh.
So now, after two rounds, we have "As the sun rises, life quickens. The green fuse curls, unfurls.." I'm posting Round 3 today, I can't delay it, I'm sorry, because of other committments. Hope to see you back for it - if not, have a great Christmas!
