Photo Friday: New
opening a new world
my mind is set from out of focus
to a bright beam blurring my eyes
awaiting for it to touch my sight
damp in this cold dark night
i looked outside i see complete darkness
touching the glass pane of another world
an ever changing time
a place where my soul wandered
a spit spat on the glass
tapped the echo to my hand
it went on and continuously poured
but couldnt feel the wetness it soared
droplets smashed on the stonewalls
on the concrete road the rain sounded
like a thousand ivory balls
spinning in a thousand roulettes
i can smell the bitter taste of leaves now
as rainwater seeps through the seams
of the window in front of me
i see my reflection finally stopped crying
as sudden as it came -
the chaos of the night was cracked open
as the faintest softest glimmerings of light
showed across the horizon
slowly peeking into the world
slowly unwrapping a new dimension
now im here to unlock the window
to be able to pass through…

Honey! I really like this poem.. such nice imagines, love the part of the rain sounding *like a thousand ivory balls spinning in a thousand roulettes* and the meaning of it(?) and much more.
And what a beautiful picture.

This is so beautiful! It refreshes, renews, just to look at it.
The poem matches it well, and is so wonderfully descriptive that I feel as though I can smell and taste the world you depict.
Yesterday, I bought some books for my students and passed by on-going exhibit of "Poems and Paints". The painters chose their favorite old English poetries and painted their interpretation of the said poem.
Then I thought of you, how you charmingly combine art and poetry, which is really great.
If in the future your works make it to any well-known museums, do I get a piece for free? Hehehe!!!
rain roulette and fiery light
