The dream-catcher. [E] A short poem about the effects of a dreamcatcher. |
Hiya inkwell! I am back with another review as I saw this item that appealed to me. I really like native arts and spirituality, so I could not resist. Dreamcatchers are breathtaking and I have seen many different ones, and I took a workshop of creating them. Quite a process! You have captured both the purpose and some of the elements that make up a dreamcatcher in a simple way that any can understand. I enjoyed the image of "captured beads..." and the first line is eloquent and lovely image. I wondered if you need to have a definite subject in the first verse---you use "it's" and we know it refers to the title , yet I think it needs to be clear in the verse. I love your first line. Maybe just add "protection is the dreamcatcher's intention" or something to clarify without wordiness. Repeating "Protection" in the second verse works to emphasize. I wonder if you could even add more detail about how this is done. eg. the idea of bad dreams may not be known to some. "promise to the sleeping" I take to mean "help sleepers have peaceful dreams". The purpose of feathers as guide is cool. It is an interesting idea " feathers guide promise" . I like the last verse with its reference to children and the last line made me smile! One does need focus to create one. Thanks for sharing your vision about this wonderful piece of art and its function. It brought back memories.! I have one in my room too--a gift from a friend. Light on the path as you write on! eyestar ** Image ID #1815342 Unavailable ** "WdC SuperPower Reviewers Group" My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
