Yes, it makes one feel very small and insignificant.

Avant-Garde, I like the feeling of the elemental power, as you put it the
forces roiling in the sky, the way you've captured it.  It's awesome, isn't it, that feeling of massing forces of nature?

Now that sounds biblical, the biblicalness of which does leave me cold, but
the lyricalness of which does heat me up to a fervour. There is much to be said for what is elementally spiritual, which is what I think you are. Boil on, you icicle cauldron.

I used to read descriptions in the 1800's by good writers. You know, they didn't have the technology we have today, so they had to be good at it. I think sometimes all the technology can dampen one's inner urge to create.

Thank you for the kind words, but I think that I've always had the ability to create things and write them down. It's a gift from God and I would love to do it for a living.

Oh, I guess. Thank you. I'm just tired of sticking to one thing. I just like to write, and keep myself honed. Glad you enjoyed reading it.

I like the wildness of them, the unpredictability.

That writing is absolutely beautiful. I don't know which was more vivid the words rolling beautifully one after another or the vision they painted. Good work.

Dear A G
From where do you find words of such extraordinary beauty? It's really amazing.! It is like Wordsworth saying that " One impulse from a vernal wood /May teach you more of man/ Of moral evil and of good/ Than all the sages can." A really, really marvelloys post! I wiill have to memorizr it.

Avant, I love the tremendous energy felt in storms; the bigger the storm, the more spectacular, the better. Moon_Spirit
