Lanterne practice

mist tranquil lost but found mystifying quelled swirl in love gazed upon fall fast asleep sound sound bombard makes ears bleed deafening noise boom taste luscious salivate fresh strawberries ripe calm rest eyes lean right back settling down snooze thought pings in eyes open what now, what now nowt breeze bathe me cast away all my concerns please stars always in situ perpetual light lynx sleeping just until the right moment pounce rain presents as droplets you are all wet ha! last rose bud just too late you will wither shame think slow drift barely there day dreams begin swoon

Very clever indeed. I didn't know you were here until this morning as I saw a comment you left for Andrea. You have a wonderful handle. I'll check out a few of your poems. TY!

Thank you John, a stream of consciousness with a shred of cohesion - it was interesting to string together. Thanks for your comment

What a beautiful string of Lanternes. I like each one of them. I'm not sure I could create that many at a time, but admire that you did. Nicely done, Sara

Thank you, it was no pressure fun - just writing whatever came to mind. I don't feel I have quite grasped it yet though. I may attempt another before the contest ends x
