The renga is finished
2006-10-09Well, over on the Renga blog, we finished our first renga. I’m reposting it here in all its glory. Enjoy!

searching in the night
the sounds of distant music
lead us far from home
ignore the dancing shadows
moonlight glows upon the path
ignore the sounds of city
music echoes in the night
beauty in this madness
soon the night shall fall
soon the sun shall rise
daylight brings no peace
yet dawn shall ever be
the hope of man
autumn showers falling
washing tears away
into a bottle
filled with His love
ever after running over
the morning sun rises
weeping clouds drift away
a breeze blows cold
catching sunrise as a sail
pushing me on
sky like an ocean
if only I could touch it
dive off the Earth
come
swim in the sky
frozen moon rising
scatters swirling snow
in moonlight’s mirror
dimly
I see His face
in the bathroom mirror
dimly I see His face
turn away but don’t forget
the image clearly seen
it’s time to start the day
my eyes are filled with life
my mouth is filled with song
