Dance, Symphony, Glimpses Of The Inner Eye

The Following were composed By:

~Leonard Daranjo and Janice Pearce~

Dance

Inside an old barn
shadows play the violin
for dancing field mice

Symphony

Only my footsteps
the sound of cicadas
in orchestration

Glimpses Of The Inner Eye

The night rests its
underbelly on the grass,
it's neck stretched upwards
— Janice Pearce, Oct 11, 2008

This was such fun. Leonard had me putting my thinking cap on, and hopefully I had him putting his on too! Thank you for the kind words! "There's no trick to being a humorist when you have the whole government working for you." Will Rogers

Goddam you to hell!

After "Light's Painting" I had my cynical eye on you two, reading this, then broke into an irresistible grin. Bloody good work... although not quite sure of the attempts to portentousness with the oneliners. cheers, Jess

I dance quietly to the words I sing to God and am much happier the last dance I had did not end well. My son plays violin and I could listen for hours... Patty
