Lights In the City

The lights in the city at night are warm and inviting Harboring seasonal influence through the core of its being They swarm with a great brilliance of an orange and red glow Russell Sivey

Night can be ethereal with the lights and shadows cast all around. A wonderful descriptive Sijo of a city's night. You conveyed it very well. Warm Smiles, Connie

I love the atmosphere of this Sijo. It reminded me of my night flight from Minneapolis to Amsterdam. The city below looked majestic and mysterious from up so high. Beautiful work!

The lights in the City are beautiful. It's the dark streets that we fear. City lights, City lights, won't you shine again tonight. Thanks for sharing...... Lucilla

You made me feel standing on the top of a hill looking down the screaming night of the city that is calling me to be part of it! Majestic! Great work Russell!
