Good Foundations
 |
| Painting by Fondazione Gorgio e Isa de Chirico |
Together we merge, entwine,
Solid outside but combined,
Memories selected,
filed,
Our history,
Our love to others an intriguing mystery!
Our foundations built throughout our years,
The laughs the smiles,
Sometimes the tears,
Locked in our contemplation vaults.
Though love and happiness,
Always our assault!
So within our bubble of man-made society
On our foundations
of,
Love and our history,
It shapes how we've merged.
It Becomes our priority
For what we have created
Makes us a minority!
this sounds like solid foundations..great take on the prompt and i love the pic you chose...the more of his paintings i see, the more i'm fascinated..

ReplyDeleteThere's good vibrations in your Good Foundations. Like the skeleton that holds up the soft flesh, a loving couple's history together solidifies their union.
ReplyDeleteI like the good foundation idea to building a relationship. Unique and personal - your post shines thru ~
ReplyDeleteThis perfectly captured the feel of the painting for me, the union of two into one. Nice write!
ReplyDeleteIt seems with every write your own foundation grows stronger! This is wonderful Kerry...there is also a confidence in this write, like you are so sure of your words. It's a great take on the prompt, and fantastic write!

ReplyDeleteHi
ReplyDeleteLove the direction you took this one in.
You imposed a credible narrative with surreal and interesting undertones and layers.
Locked in our contemplation vaults - this is a fantastic line
We are all, most definitely, interconnected and entwined in a myriad of ways. Such is humanity. I agree with your line "memories selected" for that is what we do...select what we want to remember and burying those memories we would rather forget.
ReplyDeletea lovely poem about the uniqueness of love between two. it is so neat to see de chirico's various paintings - I haven't come across this one yet - so, thank you :)
