French scenes ~~ a Poem for "Artistic Interpretation "

 

Artistic Interpretation

 

Blue Ridge Mountains reminds one of

Best of master's--elements there

 

Mountains in the background, looming

Mont Sainte Victoire, Provence love

 

Trees in the foreground standing guard

European Cypress trees, tall

 

What artists come to mind for you

A small hint, two loved abstraction

 

Renowned American artist

And the other was very French

_ _ _ _ _ 

This is the very French:

If you like art then go to Europe. We found this Cézanne original in the Lautrec Museum in Albi, France. It is by Paul Cézanne (1839 to 1906) and yes, he was pretty quirky. (Cézanne Wikipedia link)

Tuesday Platform Poem ~~ Buy Low

Buy low

Fortune said to me

buy low and sell high

That's where the money

is, days of towers

 

Or marry one. rich

She'll roll you till death

or He'll set you free

Free from debt till death

 

Towers' wild life ends

Marriages over

At death do you part 

with your worldly goods

 

Death, cookie's crumbled

Then paper's not worth

its ink.  Promises

never fulfilled, schluss**

Impish Elusive Nothings
a wordless little poem

Words eluded me today
for that I will simply write
tomorrow or yesterday.

Meter here abandon care
a bit of nonsense today
without those words nothing's here.

Rhyme it surely I can do
missing words not a problem
I do this lark just for you.

NaPoWriMo 2017, Day 30, a Poem, Particle-wave dualism?

College physics

 

College physics was old fashioned,

Waves were not particles back then

Electricity was DC

or AC.  And magnetism

 

Dropped the course before it was reached

Finding the charge on a plate, huh?

But it is possible that math

likes to treat waves that way

 

The math works but you'll never

Even one electron from the

radio wave coming at you

Don't let them tell you otherwise

 

Radio waves particles not

They will go through a pane of glass

But never a copper bucket

Magnetism particles not 

 

Industry today demands, more

than ever, a man with a good

mathematical foundation 

Ladies on magazine covers **

Notes:) 

1)  Photos are "Print Screen" captures of pages from Popular Electronics, January, 1957 ( http://www.americanradiohistory.com/Archive-Poptronics/50s/57/Pop-1957-01.pdf ).  Makes it 60 years ago.

2) ** Please note the top pictures.  Left, Popular Electronics had a lady on most every cover.  And right, is the ad from Canadian Institute of Science and Technology Limited in Washington, D.C.

3)  I have been an Amateur Radio Operator, i.e. a Ham Radio person, since 1960  In 1961 I was issued the call sign, K1TLT, but had to give it up when I moved to Texas.  Later I was able to retrieve my old call sign, K1TLT.  My license is Amateur Radio Extra Class, the highest skill level issued by the FCC.
