AUTUMNAL CATCH (photo) & A QUERY (non-dream free verse poem) by Roswila

A QUERY

when most desperately
beseeching heaven,
do we close our eyes
and fling our heads
way back, in order
to expose the truth
of our prayers,
caught in our
vulnerable throats


[non-dream free verse poem written 9-12-17. BTW, it's ROSH HASHANAH (year 5778) in the Jewish tradition. May this new year bring health, happiness, peace, and prosperity to all. Photo "Autumnal Catch" (9-8-17 009v4) 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), 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,
