This image is called Moonflower Bed. In this case Mary Jo wrote to my image rather than me drawing to her poems. It inspired the following poem:
moonshadow moonflower
she rests in the faithfulness of the glow
of the beloved it didn’t take long to find her
rockabye rockabye rockabye sweet
moonflowers moonflowers
settling there in a nest in my hair
of fronds moon flowers moonflowers
it didn’t take long to find her
the world an aging globe lit from without
moonshadow moonflowers earthbound
a coil or two of grief holding
they could so easily strangle
now I swing now I rock
the tendrils holding tender
midnight sea sky moon shadow
there was so much love
in the beginning in the middle in the end
for it was love that wrangled the vessel
that kept me afloat even
when I felt I was drowning
The card will come with the poem it is based on printed on the back, and will be blank inside waiting for your message.
