Delight
This study of abstract nouns through abstract photography brings me extreme pleasure and satisfaction. To capture that delight today, I used my favorite fuzzy fabric as a backdrop, my favorite spiral filter, and used the camera flash in the mirrorworld. Some of the results were surprising and delightful.

For Cinco de Mayo at dVerse Poets Pub we’re writing cinquains developed by Adelaide Crapsey. Laura challenges us to write either a cinq-cinquain, or a cinquain chain / crown cinquain. Either way it’s five cinquains which follow the syllabic pattern 2-4-6-8-2.
The Poem
Delight Cycle
giddy
awakening
to possibility
hot shower shoulders dripping with
delight
delight
so fresh and new
smelling of minty dew
tears and scratches to get through this
foul mood
foul mood
coating the day
before I can hang the
yellow and orange polk-a-dot
fabric
fabric
of my joy life
rug for meditation
cape for solar-being costume

sifting bright lights
providing fun textures
inspiring surprises; smiling
giddy
A lovely transformation that feels like a lot like a Friday after a long work week.

The scents, the freshness of cleansed thought and the colours that take us into that almost meditative state…

I loved the opening up to joy, and the realisation at the end. You used the form so well.
