Rengay #52 (Aug 24-30, 2008) Summary
Finding the Sun
Summer thunder —
fireflies blink among
the tall corn. /gg
Corndogs in each hand —
we wade through the crowd. /vs
From the top
of the ferris wheel —
so many stars. /gg
Up-turned bike —
a ladybug on a spoke
of the spinning wheel. /vs
Between the fence slats —
a daisy finds the sun. /gg
Journey's end —
the lighthouse among the rocks
flashes a welcome. /vs
The central theme in this rengay is "Among" which is appropriate for this last rengay in the year-long series as it is one rengay among the 52 written, we are each among many writers of poetry, and we are among the many creatures in this amazing creation.

john
indeed, this was a great way to end a memorable series.
i look forward to more of your projects (there will be more, yes?) although i'll be away for a while shortly.
Thank you all for you kind words and encouragement throughout this project.
As for future postings, this rengay project is now complete. Starting this week though, we will be embarking on another project. This time we will be working with a new poetic form that I created a year ago. It is called Renhai and has some similarities with Rengay.
I look forward to your continued interested and feedback.
I'm late -- but this was just waiting for me to enjoy.
Thank you for your 52 rengay series.
I loved it!
Pamela: Thank you for your kind words and for stick with us throughout.
