Hope this is an evocative enough image for this exercise. Though I lead off with my own poetic take on the image it in no sense implies a fixed theme or tone. Have fun.  marK  

 

 

SHINE 

Try to leave something behind 

That will shimmer

And shine for others

Another friendly lighthouse 

Along the dark way

sweet.

[Tamoharadasa v. (acbssp)]

Nocht-urn-al emission of light

So seeming pure .

Chalice ablaze,  radiant fire !

I have brought this night...

Treats to tempt a neo-Jungian's travellor's  tarrying  tastes.

Yes, Sweetmeats do my weavings carry,

Oh much too rich and thick !

As my poet's hat covers

This sweet sweet hand,

and a hardening  ---- .

charisma
In the darkness I spied abeacon rising to the sky
Curiosity caused my mind to ponder why?
Was this a beacon to announce aspecial happening
Afestival perhaps, a momentous battle won,
or perhaps a birth of royal lineage
I rose with mission to find out the meaning of this beacon
long I travelled constantantly trying to think what it could mean
Upon arrival to my dismay it was a light that flowed from an urn
there was no special announcement or occasion
I sneered and called the urn charisma.
