GANESH CHATURTHI ALTAR 2015 (photo) & STOLEN (free verse dream poem) by Roswila

STOLEN

oh no, I sort of knew
I shouldn't leave it
out in the open
and now they've stolen
my favorite Ganesh statuette
(the one with gems for eyes,
that twinkle in any light)

it's true they've left a brightly
painted ceramic figurine
of The Little Mermaid in His place

but how could they think that
finding a Disney cartoon
where my heart used to be
could make up for this theft?

PLEASE NOTE: in most browsers you can click on the above image for a larger version. Also, the photo accompanying a post is not necessarily meant to illustrate it, but to reflect some small, even slant aspect of the verse, similar to Japanese haiga (illustrated haiku).

There are many other sorts of posts on this blog. I indicate which are about or influenced by dreams. Some non dream focused posts are book reviews, "regular" poems (some by other writers, as the above is), scifaiku, writing exercises, Tarot haiku, photos, haiga, and so on. However, most of those are in much older posts. There's a listing by month going back to early 2006, at the end of the sidebar.

until next time, keep dreaming,
