by Masago: Rengay #24 (Feb 10-16, 2008) Summary
Gathered Around
Chilly day —
pigeons huddle around
a chimney top.
A warm, queen-size bed —
so easy to hit the snooze.
Russian circus —
the lion-tamer almost
loses his head.
I open a can
of soup for supper — the cat
comes running.
A candle-light dinner —
"we're meant for each other."
We gather around
to look through the telescope —
lunar eclipse.
The central theme in this rengay is "Attractions", namely: Warm air, Warm bed, Circus, Food, Romance, and Astronomical event (and Gravity).

I like the ending: the love of thing created leading us beyond form - into the realm of emptiness...!?:)
ReplyDeletewell done again!
ReplyDeleteoh well... circus has never been attractive to me for some reason...
Andrew: :-) Thanks.
ReplyDeleteJohn: Thanks.
Borut: Ah, yes, but is it really empty? :-)
Polona: Thank you. I've only been to a circus once and I was very little.
I knew I was attracted to something here. Keep 'em coming!!

ReplyDeletePamela: Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI've had an especially busy week and have got behind with my reading and commenting.
ReplyDeleteGood to see how this series ended. The final one is great - the sense of closeness of the viewers versus the distance of the universe.
