RIDING THE WIND (photomorph) & BREEZY KISSES (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

BREEZY KISSES

something in me pipes up in a small,
steady voice: yes, it's safe to close
your eyes here, in this now,
in this place; even as the tree above
agrees, shushing softly in the wind
like a loving mother letting her
young daughter know that the danger
has passed at last, while she kisses
her child's tears away with little
breezy kisses

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,
