Now that I know you that little bit more, I see this poem as the backdropp to your favourite film. The sensuality of the sand-dunes mirroring the curves of the woman's body.... (to me anyway) . Love it! HG: -) xx

ther's something visibly pathetic about these camels...unfortunately i couldn't see them in their natural habitat. i saw them dotting the urban landscape of jaipur...

Camels are designed for functionality. They do their job efficiently Although they are not beautiful You must admit they are useful. when you are trying to survive Their ugliness you can forgive

camel is nature's own complex expression of its simple environment; Onelia paints it with compassion. Rgds, Ivan

Strinking a painting for survival..it is the value of staying alife, with the basic essentials. On the back of the camel you praise the unnoticed value of life. Thanks Onelia. Very good piece (reminds me my poem 'The salmon's return') . I give you a 10. Call me on the back of your camel, and I will come to travel all three of us (you me and our camel) .

'where the humped back of dromedary simply follows the mild curves of the dunes; ' this is a strikingly simple yet incredibly effective image. An oasis of thought, observation and reflection here Onelia. j xx

A superb and sublime poem on desert life as if you are outpouring your soul. I feel as if my spirit is your spirit. I spent the first 25 years of my life in the great deserts of Rajasthan. Its golden sand, the majestic camel ride and the joy of oasis still haunt my soul. The poem so finely delineates the desert life with perfect flow that I feel nostagic about it. Thanks for sharing it.

The beauty is in your writing and how you see it and why you see it and how you say it. Your images are an oasis of thought...treking across the vastness of my mind. Midnight at the oasis... take your camel to bed. love Donall Donall (a survivor)

yes not all are 'survivors' some perish on the way others reach teh target and are aclaimed for their feat, , life is a journey on camel back, , hence it is a bumpy ride, , the poem brings alive a desert atmosphere... your poems

You bring/show/find the richness of poetry here with your fulfilment to its stark economy of words... parallels all journeys taken by camel and its desert.. One, keep humping them to us... ..

Sincere and mature considerations by an author that I have been seeing to change since my knowledge. An interesting woman with a heart of girl. A good friend, who has here written one of her best poems. A writer who has abitilty of literary criticism too.
