A patch of feathered cloud white
is glazed inside the center
Of the small, round blue handmade bowl -
Kiln fired, down from around the Tennessee smokey mountaintops.
A hint of the cloud has embedded blue circles there -
Soaring sky blue and then deep exquisitely blue.
Midnight blue adorns the edge of the pottery.
The white and blue are luminous -
A piece of the Appalachian sky! I got this small bowl at Dollywood. Gayle S.
Gayle-another of your fine paintings in poetical terms-good work-worth a 10 and I hope this gets through. Joe
Ahhh GAYLE - The Appalachian Mountains - TENNESSEE - wonderful in any Season but perfect in the Summer. I love the way you describe the colours in the glaze on the bowl and then relate to the Appalachian Sky - Awesome. Thanks for sharing - Your Friend - JOHN.
