LOL who's leaving? just busy. i hodgepodged this one while on break just so... Haha :D
you are just so modest..... if you were me, you would be making greeting cards with those lovely pictures, and selling them by the million.... but then you are not me, can't believe i am first and second... tomorrow there will be about 200
LOL you are just so fast - nobody can beat you to the gun! Ah well...thanks for the compliments :D
Well, Brenda stole my line, you're getting to be TOO GOOD -- if such a thing exists! Which I'm not sure about, really, but it expresses the feeling well that you're just stepping outside the creative box in a way I don't see often, not here anyhow. Besos to the artist!
Beautiful pictures and words, keep em coming!
Hey, I thought you have a deadline. LOL, just kidding. This is really something. You're one talented guy.
Elena.
So can I stop now and quit while I'm ahead? LOL Thanks, I just can't help myself - I mean with the photoshop i run with it most of the time. Thanks for dropping by mi amiga, besos to you too!
GW
Alright, if you keep on reading! :D

Ha! Just finished - the first batch at least - yesterday. Will work on the fresh bunch tomorrow. I think! :D
As usual, your works are always superb!
Absolutely beautiful images! Thanks Cris. I love the red lips and the doves.
charia - that's too much! but I likes it! LOL Thanks :D
alek - thanks for dropping by. yeah, that's kinda stunning isn't it. i like the way it came out too :D
Excellent imagery in the words and the pictures.
Wow this is incredibly amazing Cris. Each and every time you outdo yourself!
How incredibly fun and clever! Quite interactive, I like that. Put a big smile on my face. Thanks!
P.S. my little Arri was peering over my shoulder and he said, that face is funny, and gave a chuckle (he was speaking of the shape of your hub of course).
Nice combination of arts, there, Cris!
This is really enthralling
Pete
That was the planl! LOL thanks :D
TM

Tom

Kushal
Thanks. My business is to enthrall :D
Loved it! The white doves coming from the red lips - awesome!
That was profound... and wonderful :)
Hodpodge indeed! Would love to see a picture of your brainscan!! Talk about vivid colors!
Wow, Cris. Very impressive graphics! You did those yourself, didn't you? You artistic fool, you.
Stunning, Cris! Love the colours, the layout, the perfect placement of the words and the font size. You just keep raising the bar :)
Cris - why isn't this work (and it's cousins) twixt the pages of a book? It's really beautiful, well crafted and visually alluring.
Wonderful :)
Awesome, my friend. I totally fell in love with this one at first sight. Wow, you really did put a big smile on this lady's face. Thanks Cris it is simply stunning. :-)
does logic make sense? is reason rational? do not speak words are meaningless now worthless, useless for it has come and you must open the door open the door open the door open...
My My you just keep getting better and better...hummm??? LOVE it moreee everyday....:O) Hugs
Cris,
I am in awe of the last stanza, the words take on the shape of a child's pacifier. With this image, the words to calm and soothe. I love the images Cris, and the written lines meditation. Another brilliant work.
I love the lyrics and the images...
....I am no. 1 fan. Or just one fan. Either way, if you're hot, I'll get you something that answers questions with "no." ;D

Fabulous! Not only does the poem ring in me, the multimedia is superb!
Hodgepodge??? Pfffffftht! The last time I hodgepodged something together it was a total train wreck of literary junk. Of course even my best is a train wreck. This was superb. I hate to see when you try!
hey Chris
That's what happens when we open the door.... Thanks for dropping by my friend, you always bring class to my hubs!
KF
Ah but the meaning is not in the poem anymore.
Candie
LOL I was only trying to pull Brenda's leg! I'll tell you what the inside of my brain looks like - a smoky joint!
Ron
Of course I did the graphics or else I would not have shamelessly posted a link on your hub and pulled you over, But a happy fool my friend.
Shalini
I just love the form as much as I love the content. I can't help myself! LOL Thanks!
FD
Yeah I keep asking myself that, too! But that's a nice compliment - much appreciated by this wannabe book author! Haha
whikat
Then it's mission accomplished - I think with the work you're currently doing a smile would only do you good.! It's my pleasure to um stun you!
G-Ma
Well I'd like to think so too! LOL Thanks for coming over, a big hug and a bigger lurve to ya!
Sandy
I think we have eyes like twins. Enuff said! Thanks for coming over, its always a pressure to see your um back. LOL
oscillation
I'll have you either way. Something that answers questions with no? well now i'm thinking... hmm
PM
Now this is a pleasant surprise! Glad to see ya my friend for I've just been over to your "further notice" hub. If you came for the key, nu-uh the door will stay open.
Pest!
I almost fell off my chair when I saw that efffing creepy avatar - good thing I have the straps on! I thought they've made sure you're done for! They should change the locks and next time throw away the key!
I guess modesty and humility do not become me, huh? Of course, I can't fool you - at least nobody can 'cept for Momma!
I'm sure your work is very moving and amazing but i don't have that artistic brain so i can't pick up on it :(
The pictures are beautiful though.
okay i have a confession to make. it's the blurring of lines that separate reality from dreams (as we know them). we're probably in some kind of a computer game and dreamland is actually the reality. Hmmm now I'm not sure myself what I meant by this poem! LOL
Anyway, thanks for reading and commenting just the same. It's appreciated :D
Hmph! You and your FANCY photoshop! Good job Cris! Another gem for the treasure, eh? I really hope you're pushing your talent to make you some guac. The more you share, the more YOUR share, get it??? Someday, you gotta share with me your influences. I'd really like to know, Cris. See ya.
LOL sorry can't help myself with the Photoshop thingy! But seriously, if the guac as you say comes, it comes. Otherwise, I'm okay with sharing this space with the likes of you, my friend. See ya, I hope the vacation's done you good! :D
I believe you've single-handedly brought back the word "Hodge-podge!" You're cutting edge!
I am really bewildered whether to admire the poem or to admire he layout??? This is artistic Cris. I believe this is one of your photoshop projects?
This piece, words and images is truly captivating! I loved it! you are sooo talented. :D
well I can do that kind of thing actually, but I am not in the mood to do it today, but maybe tomorrow, I like the doves, but the girls lips are a bit red aren't they????
You are such an inspiration, Cris.
I love what you have done here! You are so creative, Cris! It all flows and fits together sooo well, and makes the reading all the more fun!
STOP PRESS: Artist in our midst!! :)
Answer: A fan that oscillates back and forth. It will always shake its head no. ;D
candie

RB

Cris - compelling and worthy of many visits as usual. Like RB I often revisit your poetic hubs - surely soon you'll be publishing a print collection of your poems ?
Julie
Oh so you're the one who keeps my clicks afloat! LOL thanks, glad to know that! As for your question, honestly I don't have a clue :D
Amazing my friend....amazing! :) LYM!
Dang - I feel like I should bow to you, but bouncing somewhere between sleep and dream at the moment, that might be a tad dangerous and too real! Addictive, truly addictive.
Whoa. That was amazing! Excellent!! :D
Tom
You're the kindest (or thoughtless?) with words. Thanks LYM back! :D
zollstock
