More practice lanternes

glass fragile shattering splinters and shards sliced fruit apple tangerine pomegranate pips storms gather culminate massive downpour drench swoop gliding heavenwards to loop the loop thrill web spider abandoned is beautiful still lone lonely loneliness longing loving lost stars shine on beyond death ethereal dust

Awesome display of your poetic talents, DD. Good luck in the contest, my friend. I like them all, so no favorite one from me. Have a great week! Bill

Thanks Bill, I've stuck with "the blues" for the contest so far. Glad you liked them :)

Your 'practice' is pretty awesome here. I love the Lanterne form and plan on writing more. I especially liked the last Lanterne...it spoke to me. Enjoy your evening, Sara

Thank you Sara, I think if I practice throwing lots out I'll get more experimental and something particularly nice might appear. Thanks for your lovely supportive comment x
