Three Digits

Dearest Blog Readers,

I can hardly believe that we are already at day 100! I will now be typing in three digits until the end of the project! WOW! It means so very much every time I write for this and I know that the photographer feels the same way when shooting for the day. It has come to be something that keeps me excited and optimistic through thick and thin. It has been such an incredible experience thus far and I would like to thank every single one of you for sharing it with me.

Hopefully your day has been lovely and as inspired as mine has been.

Much Love,

~The Poet

Life Goes On

Dearest Internet Companions,

Hope you are all doing well and keeping as busy as the Photographer and I have. We have both been out of town the last few days, and the Photographer is still rather far from home. This has had an interesting effect on our posts, but hopefully not a negative one. I just wanted to say we hope you had a beautiful Valentine's Day and are enjoying the shortest month the year has to offer.

Keep in touch!

Peace and Hugs,

The Poet

Birthday!

Hey, Photographer here. I would just like to say a very happy birthday to the Poet. I hope you have an amazing day dear =]


Love,
The Photographer

A quick note about today's poem:

Firstly a considerable amount of applause for the brilliant Photographer who gave me such excellent, currently relevant and inspiring pieces to work with. One could ask for no better.

It was composed in a very specific format so that it reads down stanza by stanza rhyming (there are two on the left and two on the right) it should however be noted that it also reads across stanzas by matching lines, which is why it is posted differently spaced. Blogspot would not allow me to post as two separate columns, so I did the best I could to express the four stanzas side-by-side, but also separate.

Hope you enjoy it.

Happy reading, and viewing,

-the Poet

I just wanted to send some kind wishes to our wonderful followers. Thank you so much for supporting us it means more than I can say. We have officially made it to the big 1-0! Yay!

Today's poem is actually a companion piece to yesterday's Symmetrical Scene, I hope you enjoy it.

With Love,

The Poet

Hello to all you brilliant blog readers out there!

Welcome to the blog of our brand new project.

The idea of this project and epic artistic attempt came along when we (the poet, myself, and the photographer) were once again playing collaborations. We decided the most appropriate way to share these creations with the world is to blog about them.

So here is our promise to one another and online to you as well.

We will post one photograph and corresponding poem every single day, for 365 days... yes that is a year long commitment that we are thrilled to have begun on January 5, 2010. This is by far my most important New Year's Resolution, so sit back and enjoy as we take on this crazy project.

The original rules that started it all are...

The Rules (or how the crazy artists start such things)

-The goal of this project is to produce one piece of collaborative work daily for an entire year hence the title “Three Hundred Sixty Five: The Project”.

-DAY DEADLINE: 12:00 midnight CST

-Poem and photograph and vice versa must be written and taken on the same day according to the above deadline and the solar Calendar.

-This project commenced on January 5, 2010

-As a collaboration between Eric and Jackie.

-The practice is of photograph being taken first and poem being written to that photograph.

-Eric will serve as the photographer.

-Jackie will serve as the poet.

We are thrilled to begin this journey from a Wolf and Stranger... (figure out who's who, later)

Peace, Love and Excellent Visual and Literary Experiences,

~The Poet
