"BOTH SIDES NOW" (photo) & EPHEMERAL MOMENTS (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

EPHEMERAL MOMENTS

sigh ... I knew I should have made notes
for that poem; now, all I can recall is the willow's
leafy shadows covering my forearms and the
backs of my hands like living, breathing tattoos
and how I could almost feel them brushing
my skin, ephemeral moments that no
poem can ultimately pin down

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), 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,
