Dry Leaves by Mark Bagain Schwab
Budding, wilting, or timid, we always thought we were, one way or another, Flower Children, from Woodstock to Antipolo. Let's begin in our new space by recalling a favorite song from a pop icon of that era, Paul Simon (who was also a poet, singing with his angel-voiced partner, Art Garfunkel): “And they wither with the wind / And they crumble in your hand... And the leaves that are green turn to brown.” Which can only mean they turn to mulch and merge with the ground that will sprout the bud, the sapling, the branch. What an era! And we tell ourselves things are no longer so simple. Has the world gown old or have we? There is a great difference between our lifetimes: the other counts eons, we years. The new blooming is always beyond our lifetimes. We turn to mulch, we join the ground.

Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Landscape with Fall of Icarus; also the ekphrasis icon we have adopted in our About Us page.

Hello there. This will be the new Home Page of poet'sPicturebook, starting on its 21st Issue, the Yearend & New Space Issue now in the works and for posting within November. The old home page (http://marnezine2.blogspot.com), becomes "Main Page 2." Update your links now to this page:

http://marnescriptsmain.blogspot.com.
Look at the wide, wide, wide space (the whole 660 pixels' width of it) for your contributed photos and art in this new Home and Cover Page. And you have the same unique ezine for your poetry, only better looking. Send us now those original artworks, photos, and poems, or poems about art and photos that from the start have gained us the smiles of readers worldwide. Yes, we are being read in more than 65 cities in over 54 countries around the globe (from Sydney through Asia, Europe and the Americas, to Honolulu—and back to Manila, Cebu, Baguio, Davao...). And soon we'll be marking our 15000th hit. Not bad for a one-year-old ezine. And neither for a young online publication whose current ambition is to grow to a ripe old age of two. Or three... Only your contributions will make that possible, of course.
