    say cheese - a rengay 


    by an'ya, USA & Sheila Windsor, UK
    (published WHCshortverses rengay)

    ​

    high stress day
    thank God this solstice
    remains overcast

    ​

    draining rice the garden
    goes into soft focus

    ​

    the photographer prompts us
    to "say cheese"

    ​

    window crystal
    a sun's face flooded
    with moonlight

    ​

    after our rendezvous
    the bridge washes out

    ​

    over a flickering flame
    glasses touch
