SUNSET ETCHING (photomorph) & THE SAX (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

THE SAX

lying on a poolside bench
the sax glints in the ambient
light of the falling night
etchings winking from
its curved length:
a golden swan resting
before taking off again
to warm the chilly evening
with its radiant song


[non-dream free verse poem written 7-2-16. I observed this last night during a break in a live jazz performance by the Dennis Berger Trio at our community's poolside. Photomorph "Sunset Etching" (6-28-16 001v7) by Roswila]

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,
