Blind

[tectak]

I like it. I probably need read it a couple more times but here's what I thought anyway.

 In gloss of pearl the prim and petalled wrap keeps secret 
all that bees see as their own. The tulip opens wide to winds   - Immediately I thought hid is better than secret. The line flows better and there's a near rhyme with
of March, that blast and blow then dries the bloom.                -   winds. Then I heard secret/bees see and maybe you're right. dry the bloom?


No sight outlooks the flaming globes, but space the ink of depth belies   - I don't get the first half of the lines. Do you mean outstares? For me,
but space the depth of ink would be very much better.


A man can stand and cry at death, when sparks of life he watches fade;  - ideally, watches needs be past tense, don't you think? Maybe it works as it is.

Thanks ray,
I think I tried too hard, fell short, and you caught me. I won't excuse my word choices except as colonial "Hid" would be wrong...hidden right...but would not mean the same as secret.
"bloom", noun, flower. "a bloom".
Then I go all obscure. You are right. There is a puzzle in the dark sky. If it is full of galactic suns why is it black? The reason can be researched....it is not poetically important...except in this poem where "blackness" is being defined as a parameter of vision. I clearly bungled it. Needs a rehash but "outlooks" will probably stay as it means what it says. I thought about it a good deal.
For the rest...there's none so blind as those who will not see.. Sums it up, I hope
Best and thanks,
edit will come,
