Tiny Voices
A Renhai by Vaughn Seward (Solo)
Written 2008 Oct 28-29
Dusk deepens —
the first tiny voices echo
across the neighborhood.
Carved autumn gourd —
a candle lit in its head.
Porch light —
a werewolf's face reflects
in the glass door.
Theme: Halloween
Season: Autumn
Process: Reverse

Reflecting on an echo!:)
I really like the softness of the first verse - along with the tiny voices were some rather loud booms here - and all night long too :)
Hi Masago...
i think i'll have to continue talking my lessons here..
on link 3 to 1 -- i just fail to realise that light and sound could reflect and that echo is the reflection of light...as shadow is the reflection of sound...my god what am i talking..where's Art and Poetry..help this poor soul!!
anyway, the Renhai makes much sense now...i mean to me ;-))
see again
wishes!

btw, Masago-- you would know that i was going through a trough, rather tough poetry learning session in these days...a part result of those is available at my three blogs...not haiku or renhaior such forms..but you may find some poetry there i feel...because all three were spontaneous flow of emotions, if i could say...the one at Soc-Pol was already flowed by my master...so i just put it there..:-)
i would request you to find some time to read those..sometime in the week and let me have an opinion..if i got some future in any form of poetry....
