Mounting Anticipation
Like stones on velvet
silent and shimmering,
the words lay
scrutinized under the poet's loop
scoured for inclusions,
imperfections, and
irregularities.
Pretty pieces,
precious but as yet unadorned,
patiently wait
for their proper setting.

Ah, searching for just the right words . . . when you find the right setting its magical.
A little like finding the right camera angle? ;) Thanks Andrea.
