1.
i traced the paths of
a hundred miles traveled
and found myself home

2.
voices entertain
magic woven at sunset
brings forth daylight dreams

3.
sun-drenched horizons
light the darkened landscape and
warm dispositions

4.
sacred bonds between
two lovers forged deeper than
the mind can fathom

5.
two ends of a wick
melting wax on best-laid plans
the flame extinguished

6.
a solemn haunting
demons dance with the reaper
to exorcise ghosts

7.
silent offerings
translating foreign whispers
spoken to your heart

a moment in the life (senryu 8-13)

8.
bells on church tower
cacophony interrupts
a small town slumber

9.
neighborhood theater
a feature film and popcorn
midnight in paris

10.
passing mattress store
discount clearance sale event
making me sleepy

11.
should be paying more
attention to busy street
than to blackberry

12.
burrito on desk
molten lava cheese inside
i still go hungry

13.
car speeding along
wheels cut through a deep puddle
shower acquired
Usually Peter's schtick. I might let *peterdawes do his own set. ;)

1. They led me to you. :heart:

2. Supposed to be focused on editing. Muse wants to compose.

3. Friday was a good day. Sunny, gorgeous, and placid.

4. Jesi knows what inspired this one. :giggle:

5. God, we've been working our asses off lately. :faint:

6. Flynn's pissed off in my headspace today. Which generally puts me in a bad mood, too. #thevoicesarereal

7. Another one from the voices in my head, who isn't a poet, so he apologizes if it's one of the weaker entries. ^^;

8. - 13. All written as little snapshots of life. Some I composed while walking around my neighborhood.

And you have got to live in a wonderful place - I don't know for sure but I think I'm jealous. (I also don't know but I think those names are going to confuse me for a while. :) )
