Netted From The Stream of Life

i

raspberry essenceon crushed ice, the sun bledInto the clouds

ii  from my windowi watch the dusk thicken, inkon blotting paper 
iii

cars streak by on anunlit highway, jackals
in a forest 
iv
seahorses dancingin unison, waves of thesea brush the shore
v
 from its quiver
the moon sends silver arrows
into the sea

vi  the wind swirl sends dustinto spirals, creatinga devils horn 
vii
 Dripping waterFrozen into iciclesThoughts trapped in flight
viii 

bowed by the burden
of parasitic creepers
trees weep waterfalls

My Goodness

That was so full of pictures I almost got lost in the silver arrows cast by the moon. The imagery was extremely vivid including the creepers in the trees. I really liked this. I give you high five!
