Thursday photo prompt: Fantasy #writephoto

Time stood still, Frozen in the tall,stony edifice, That stood as a vanguard, Overlooking the sun baked roofs, Cloistered in a verdant lush, Pristine, Untainted by Time's bounty. An idyllic haven, A tranquil oasis, Its celestial serenity, Radiating and reflecting, Shining in the cerulean expanse. My soul, A lonely Island in the vast diaspora, Looks…

Thursday photo prompt: Darkness #writephoto

A dark canopy, Shadowing the verdant lands, A gentle diaspora, Rolling placidly into an infinite horizon. The dark shadows, They cast an eerie spell. But, Dogged rays of hope, Burst through the dark clouds, Lighting the dark lands, Harbinger of solace. As tides turn, The clouds would blow away, Dispelling the shadowed gloom. The dazzling…

I have written a Shadorma on the photo prompt Sea of life, Absorbs all you give, Stormy surf, Eroding, Stony cliffs leaving its mark, Returns back debris. Via : https://colleenchesebro.com/2020/07/21/colleens-2020-weekly-tanka-tuesday-poetry-challenge-no-187-photoprompt/

Thursday photo prompt: Vista #writephoto

Nature's blitzkrieg, An idyllic oasis, A piece of heaven, A utopia on my strife torn planet! Rolling meadows, Wisps of lush green grass, Waltz gently as the winds sweep. The infinite horizon, A tranquil panorama, Pristine and untouched. Cloistered by the blue canopy, The marauding hands, The avaricious souls, They could not defile, The divine…

Thursday photo prompt: Veiled #writephoto

A haze, A misty veil, Enshrouded the verdant valley. The stony peaks, The angry sentinels, They hid their treasures, From ravaging hands. Hands that they had fed, Their wanton avarice, Consuming all. Lands now fallow, Weeping, And desolate. The misty veil, It took pity, Wrapping the wailing diaspora, In its cloaked embrace.

Thursday photo prompt: Guardian #writephoto

A Haibun The stony cliffs stared into the infinite cerulean expanse. The waves that seemed to roll in from faraway horizon crashed into the stones with a rhythmic symphony. The silvery rolling crests dazzled in the bright sun. The tiny blossoms on the cliff waltzed in the gentle breeze to their music. Nature was at…

Thursday photo prompt: Painted #writephoto

A wooden bridge, It led to nowhere, Deep into the verdant bloom, Enigmatic, Mysterious. It dared the passerby, To tread on the shaky bridge, As the lilies looked on nonchalantly, Smirking, Mocking the traveller, For the secrets of the forest, None could find, Nature's cache safely hidden, For unknown hands, They had defiled many thickets.…

Colleen’s 2020 Weekly #Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge No. 178 #PhotoPrompt

I have written a Shadorma. Fiery eyes, Yellow ombre shone, Told a tale, Stagnant still, It was Camouflaged to kill, Verdant bloom smells death. Via: https://colleenchesebro.com/2020/05/19/colleens-2020-weekly-tanka-tuesday-poetry-challenge-no-178-photoprompt/

Thursday photo prompt: Dance #writephoto

A Haibun The endless expanse stretched all around the horizon. Not a soul was in sight. The grass had dried up to give the land a golden hue. The patch of green marked the path leading to the amphitheatre that was encircled by the stony columns withered by travails of time but standing proud. They…
