Shadows inside out.

In a vast universe room
We are picked up
By a giant hand
Carefully placed on the glass slide.

Lights blaze on
And our opacity lowers
Until self is revealed,

Shadows inside out.

Sweat trickles, sticky shirt Hot air sears nostrils, Shimmering fried yellow hills in distance, Cicadas, a thousand chirps pressing in, Relief, cool ice-water laughs down my throat. Form I followed here: Line 1: Touch - Feel Line 2: Smell Line 3: See Line 4: Hear Line 5: Taste Success Criteria: Have followed the form but shown an ability to vary with intention as needed. Place in the poem strong thoughts about the topic Creating not just a random set of lines but using craft. I have correctly punctuated with complex sentences with comma/s. I have improved vocabulary by utilising a thesaurus. I can use and credit Creative Commons images. Images Credit: 5 Senses from Wikipedia , Summer adapted from Pixabay

Bush Shadows On inside rain-trapped days....

Sunset dips, Night bucket fills, Painting black.
