streetlights on highway performing flashing lightshow the dance of the bulbs artificial lights flowing by in endless streams brighten up your night universe colors creation of mankind's mind uncaged by their speed A rose is a rose is a rose...I guess...

amazing photo...did you take it???? your words, of course, are senryu or senyru, I can't recall which, because they don't have to do with nature no matter what form this is, it's wonderful! |

Cpat Hair, glad you enjoyed Bill, thanks for your kind reply VAS, the photo was taken by a friend driving home after a visit (uses his digital camera). Well that is: his wife drove for he was too busy taking pictures, I've more of them. Irish Rose, yes, they're senryus, VAS was right, hesitated for a moment, thanks for reading.

as a child, driving in the city at night was my favorite....I used to think it was magical, and that something really wonderful was waiting for me there......now I know, I'll always be a country girl....but the lights are still pretty to me I liked these very much |

Fabulous! Your imagery is great here. For someone who was a little hazy about the form they were using, you certainly have used it quite skillfully! ~Krista "Poetry and Hums aren't things which you get, they're things which get you. |

Beautiful photo and I loved the verse. Them lights can play tricks on you especialy if you ever see them with a tear in your eye. Do not fear going forward slowly, |
