Very good.
Thanks!
I shall choose wisely, as per your instructions, C.B. And shall, hopefully, seek no more… Beautiful poem!
lOVE IT!
Thank you!
It is so inviting…your words set it perfect ~
Yeah, I wouldn’t mind living there.
Glad you enjoyed the poem!
I always love your poetry.
Thanks.
This one was all about having a little fun with a picture I love.
These are my favorites – when you match photos and words! Perfect!
Its weird how inspiration works. Sometimes the words come before the picture and sometimes the photo decides what lines will be written. This picture has been in my queue for a while, but it was pretty quiet until this week.
What a beautiful blue door to match your beautiful words! (or vice versa!)
This door really stood out to me because of the color and all the flowers. It really stood out in a neighborhood where every entry looked the same.
Could be a writing prompt-what is behind the window, who was the last to walk out the door, what conversation occurred on the steps? Your words sound inviting.
Ooo, that could be fun!! Maybe WIG would like to play with this one.
