Thank you Grant-many thoughts provoked including when people buy handmade jewelry, the slightly flawed seems to be more interesting and first purchased items… an imperfect stone is actually perfect; differently thinking.
Thank you for mining these nuggets of wisdom. Without you working and offered them to us, I wouldn't have written in my journal today about 'vague' and Calvino, and the quotes by Baldwin and Appolinaire. I feel content with my attempt at evocation in my recently completed short story.

Agreed! With certainty!

Oh, so interesting about the imperfect stone being the more preferable one with jewelry. The imperfect is certainly more interesting, more unique.
Your perspective is enlightening and so welcome! And the tree!!!

I can't tell you how nice that is to hear, Diana! Words like yours keep me writing.
