Analysis of Genius
pebbles once boulders
granule by granule eroding
becoming hand sized morsels
turned into exquisite art
by Erzsébet Furmen
no picture fantasized
without effervescent color
boundless in locale
kitchen to café
pans to umbrellas
panoramic vistas explored
relationships revealed
angels swirling wands
silhouettes projecting shadows
unparalleled imagination exhibited
unfolding stone into craftsmanship
producing surreal creativity
detailed eloquence fabricated
“storytelling fables” purveyed
GENIUS personified
