Rengay Through the Seasons #49 Summary
by Masago: Rengay #49 (Aug 3-9, 2008) Summary
Between
The wipers almost
clean off the windshield —
bugs rest in pieces.
Pansies from her garden —
plated between panes.
Two slices
of fresh deli rye —
watercress.
Picnic table —
seven of us try
to fit around.
We all pose for the shot —
the shutter, slowly pressed.
A frog in water
flicks out its tongue —
catches a fly.
The central theme in this rengay is "Squashed".

Rengay Through the Seasons #48 Summary
by Zhanna P. Rader (zh.r), and Vaughn Seward (vs);
Rengay #48 (Jul 27 - Aug 2, 2008) Summary
Tender Moments
The fisherman's shirt —
she breathes in its sea smell,
this summer night. /zh.r
He touches her negligee —
tender moments together. /vs
A nun walks by him,
with downcast eyes, trembling —
white lily, pink-edged. /zh.r
Roomful of people —
he, without even trying,
keeps noticing her. /vs
Alone with a nude model —
the young artist wipes her brow. /zh.r
Early beach morning —
he applies suntan lotion
on her sculpted form. /vs
The central theme in this rengay is, of course, "Romance". There is also an alternating pattern of Him / Her throughout each of the verses. In verse 5 there is an intentional ambiguity in that a young male artist could be wiping the female model's brow or it could be that it is a female artist wiping her own brow (and the model is a male).
