Eternal Sleep
Side by side
A parent and child
Two spiked cribs.

Beauty Calls To Beauty
Vast beauty
Is offered a gift –
Small bouquet.

I like these. The first is so poignant, of course. But the second reminds me of how our gifts of love to God are seemingly so insignificant compared to his own love and beauty, but they are esteemed valuable by Him just the same.
Yes, good point. When I first saw the picture, I was struck by that tiny spot of beauty facing out toward that wide expanse of beauty and saw a contrast between the great and small.
Very nice, sir.
Thank you.
Both very affecting, Dennis, very lovely.
Thanks!
