I quite agree with Pia and Coral. Hauntingly beautiful, indeed, Jenny;-)

Tina

thankyou for letting me know and for reading
seashore.

Jenny.

Thankyou pia, I wrote this after watching a film
about Woodstock, the words just came flowing out.

Jenny.

Hi Tina,

glad you enjoyed this poem about a festival that
rocked a nation. Thankyou for reading and your
comment.

Jenny.

Hi Jenny,
A really lovely piece. Just caught up with all the others. You're so prolific, how do you do it?
'precious dreams wrapped in black velvet...'
Great line.
Steve

new Hi! Jenny
amazing and beautiful,
just great. The way you write it,
capturing in colour and images.
Like you say roll's of the tongue.
Great loved it all.
They are stating now disco light's
some affected from colour and spinning.
Stanza
Many colours transcending
across the ancient fields and valleys,
a trance like state
our eyes tantalised
by what we see
but suddenly becomes unobtainable.
My word what an achievement of words.

loved the last two stanza/verses jen! absolutely brilliant... :)

Thankyou so much Steve for your fine comment.
I love that line too, it kind of reminds me of
dreaming in the dark, darkness always reminds
me of black velvet for some reason.

Thankyou for reading this poem, it's always
appreciated and glad you enjoyed.

Jenny.

Hi julie,

what a lovely comment, I'm so glad you enjoyed reading my poem about Woodstock, Oh! how I would
have loved to have been there, afraid I was only 15, and I don't live in the USA.

Thankyou for reading this piece and it was kind of
you to let me know.

Jenny.

this is really lovely Jenny - fantastic imagery, full of colour

Jenny.

Thankyou so much cherry pickers, wow! what an
amazing end to the week to get cherries, it's
really made my day.

Thankyou so much.

Jenny.

Love this, Jenny - that last stanza is wonderful. "precious dreams wrapped in black velvet" - great image. Well done on the cherries :)

Just read this again with Woodstock in mind and it really made even more of an impression. Congrats on the cherries- well deserved.

;)Pia

This is really good, Jenny. And on reading again with Woodstock in mind it's even better swecond time around. Well done, and congratulations on the cherries.

Congrats on the cherries, Jenny - this is stunning!

'painted faces locked in
their own minds...seperate and free...
racing like wild horses on the wind,'

- really love this imagery, a beautiful poem and my new favourite of yours, too. Have started reading your story now and that too is just as rich and descriptive as this is! I'm only up tp Pt3 but I'll let you know what I think when I've finished - think it's brilliant so far, though, really enjoying it!

Really well done with this, you captured the spirit of the people really well, I think :)

Hope you have a lovely weekend,

Rachel xx

Hello Magic,

I guess even though you are too young to remember
Woodstock, I'm sure that the festivals now are not
so different.

So it was very kind of you to leave such a nice
message.

Thankyou.

Jenny.

Dear Pia,

that's really kind of you to come back and let me
know. I really do appreciate getting cherries, so
I'm on cloud nine at the moment.

Thanks again.

Jenny.

Hello Rachel,

thankyou so much for reading, it's so great to hear
from you.

I'm very happy that you are reading and enjoying my
story so far.

I'm really glad you captured the spirit of the poem,
having been to festivals in my younger days, I was
able to take from that experience as well, so it was
a lot of fun to write and ponder over.

I really appreciate you letting me know what you
thought.

Thanks Jenny. xx

"as the music rocks a nation
sending out wave upon wave
of hypnotic sounds...
blending like colours on canvas."

An amazing ending to a beautiful poem. I can really see the effective use of the wave-like structure of this poem. This is a cherry very well deserved ;-)

Nathan.

Hello there J.

Enjoyed, all of it, and well done on the Cherry.

Love this poem. Reading it through it was mesmerising, I was imagining someone in a meditative or trance induced state reaching for a higher plane.

Hi ScoZen,

great to hear from you again. Glad you enjoyed reading this poem and thankyou for letting me

Jenny.

Wow! thankyou V.C. that is certainly another approach
I never thought of when I wrote this, I like that
idea very much.

Thankyou for letting me know you enjoyed reading
this, I'm really grateful.

Jenny.

I thoroughly enjoyed this, your writing style really reeled me in, such delicious imagery as well!

Hi there maggyvaneijk,

thankyou so much for your great comment, I like that
description, 'delicious imagery,' Wow! you've made
my day.

Thankyou for reading.

Jenny.

Psychodelic. It has a very dyed effect, almost groovy.

Thankyou Steve, that was just the effect I was trying
to capture.

Thanks for reading and letting me know.

Jenny.
