Prodigal:A yellow-eyed monster
Steps forward on the motorway
And gives birth to a trumpeter
In a red band uniform marching
Gaily into the muted rain.
For a moment
I am blinded and deaf,
But only for a moment as the light
And the thundering voice of heaven
Engulf me.
For a moment I am afraid,
But only for a moment;
This is a dream.

I like your poem. Are you sure you were dreaming and not in Manhatten last night. It seems your camera might have been bumped just as you did the shutter. Very pretty and intriguing!

Happy New Year. Thanks for all your sharing this past year.
This is a wonderful abstract photo. It almost looks like face.
OH, such a wonderful shot and poem to go with it! Sandy, wonderful!
I have a very similar shot from a taxi window
The photograph and the words go perfectly together. HAPPY NEW YEAR, SANDY!
Just beautiful, the whole effect. I love that photo.
So did you have the poem first and look for a photo to go with it, or vice versa? Great match, in either case. Happy WW and Happy New Year.
