Rosendahl’s entries for the letter “P” held many attractions for me. I was able to work in two of my favorite into today’s offering: “pyriform” (pronounced “peer-i-form”), an entirely new word to me that means “pear-shaped;” and ‘Pome,” which already held associations for me though the botanical connection was delightfully new.
Previous? The title of a poetry collection that James Joyce published in 1927: Pomes Penyeach–which I have assumed was his thumb in the eye to “correct” British pronunciation and spelling–and a monthly local event at our public library that goes by the acronym P.O.M.E. or Poetry Open Mic Event.
(As for the use in botany of the word, “pome,” I believe that today’s poem, emailed to you if you requested it, explains that.)
Wishing that you, too, make delightful discoveries today in the worlds of letters and growing plants–LESLIE
Thank you, Lynn “Sharp Eyes” Lawrence! I did not see that!
(Here was another instance of the piano serving as a plinth for photography.)
maybe my eyes need to be checked but what I see reflected in the beautiful “First Kiss” pomme, is a reflection of a❤️. How perfect.
