Senryu String: Fields Of Dreaming (by eddy styx)

her signature scent
wafting on room's air current
fills his head and mind

will she stay this time
he ponders this question now
hopes fulfilled she sleeps

candles on night-stand
their heads on same pillow smiles
soft night spent dreaming

The language...

makes these strings smooth and lanquid, like the mood they are supposed to portray.
"hope fulfilled she sleeps"
"soft night spent dreaming".
Nice stuff, ~ Hugs from the boys, Geez.

The pedant in me feels obliged to comment!

Only thing wrong with this poem is that you forgot to put an apostrophe between the m and the s in room's! Sorry, I was a teacher for 16 years (17 if you count the year of training and schoolwork) and it was the first thing I noticed! Otherwise, this is s lovely poem!

hello Lord Barham

please don't be sorry for pointing out a problem. these are some of the things I like to know! thank you for reading and critiquing my poem. all advice is welcome. I try to always read a poem aloud before posting, but that isn't one of the things that would stand out.

ever, eddy styx

Fine poem indeed

I'm begining to covet this kind of style. Very soon, I would like to create some thing like this. Changing gear is necessary for optimum performance of speed. LoL!
