ON A SPIN (photo) & IN ANISQOYO PARK (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

IN ANISQOYO PARK

ah, the blesséd silence!
but, no, not complete, for in
the distance, as if questioning
my hobbling passage through
these lilting shadows, an owl's
"who-WHO-who? who-WHO-who?"
and to my utter delight the answer
rises in me like the next line
to a soft song the tires
of my walker sing as they spin:
" I don't know ... I don't know ...
I really ... just ... don't ... know!"

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,
