She said, "you should
come up here more often,
it is quiet and chilly
and i get a bit lonely",
but i am not too sure
because the boy Icarus
dropped into the sea
the other day while
we were trying to
fly to Mars.

My daughter was at the recently concluded festival I Light Marina Bay, and took pictures of the light installations there. She asked me if i would like to add some words to the photos. These 5 were the results. Not much, I know from more than 20 installations.
Simultaneous publication at my other blog, i write too. If you want to see the other installations and read the accompanying haiku, click HERE.

Looks like a beautiful light display.
Imaginative and quite wonderful!
This is really cool!
This made me chuckle a little. Oh that Icarus. Made me wonder if we'll burn trying to get to Mars.
I liked the way you evoked Icarus in this poem! That festival must have been quite something to experience.
Of course I had to look up "Illumaphonium"...COOL!
Your piece was excellent.

😊nice witty one Cheong Lee san
Much♥️love
Father knew best and Icarus just had to ignore his advice. Kids just don't listen do they?
annell,
it is. my daughter told me most of the installations are interactive. wished i had attended, but i was having some health issues then.
Sherry,
thank you! :)
Sanaa,
thank you! :)
Myrna,
:)
there is now talk of colonization of Mars. will mess up the place there, no doubt.
Mary,
it is. my daughter told me it was an eye-opener.
ZQ,
i had to look it up too. :)
gillena,
thank you. :)
Robin,
haha, they don't. they have their own way of doing things. :)
I wouldn't be sure either...
I love the story in your words.
Anna :o]
Loved that Icarus reference. Great poem.
Oh, how delightfully imagined!
(I looked it up too, and now I want my own illumaphonium!)
Anna,
thank you! :)
Cuban,
glad to see you! :)
Rosemary,
:D
Beautifully, imaginative! I hope you all are also surviving the media storm from the summit as well!
oh wow, great to hear from you!
ah, that summit. more like a PR exercise for trump. maybe it shouldn't be hosted in the first place, nothing new comes out of it that the earlier summit between the 2 Koreas had agreed.
