Weeping
the garden lamp
flooding all the moorings
now a deluge of memories
rush in.
Orb under the canopy
sobbing to the late winds
Floating lantern
Smoldering to a portal mouth;
One eye of a weeping dragon
Mist-capped reminder
of all gifts unrecognized,
clenched fist of fate,
drooping fruit of the tree of life.

An art-poem, meant as a poetic equivalent of abstract expressionist art.
Cinquain, couplet, tercet and a quatrain - 4 stanzas with different moods, reflecting on the same visual - that of the garden lamp late in the night, in the rainy season. Will use more of this in my experimental work.
