Thursday photo prompt: Yearning #writephoto (A repost)

The cycle of life( a Haibun) As the pristine icy snow melted with the advent of spring, it gave birth to a vivacious and bubbly froth.The cerulean drops danced along the valleys,cascaded down mighty falls and waltzing in symphony with pebbled music. The pure manna rejuvenated the arid plains and infused life into the dried…

Rooted#Writephoto(a Haibun): A Repost

My soul tethered deep into my conscience is my anchor of life. Strong and sturdy, weathering the life's storms,it has grown. Lateral branches lush with verdant emotions, lush with life sprout shading me from harsh glares. They droop down burdened with the plethora of life's emoticons. And as they touch down to meet my inner…

Life’s Rant

When life throws a tantrum, Raving and ranting, Bubbling a cauldron of angst, Spouting a vented fury, I panic and fret, As all goes for a toss! And I let out a big sigh, And simply let the tempests blow. Lightings shall crack the dark sky, As thunders rage across, Ripping across the dusky darkness,…

A serried tale

The serried twists and sharp turns, Ensheathed in a veiled canopy , That hides its dazzling sheen, From those that envy its resplendent allure, Unsurpassed, Untouched. It beckons you, Tantalising, Mocking that you can't you reach it, As you want it all the more. You just walk along in tremulous fear, Gingerly circumventing the folds,…

Thursday photo prompt: Tokens #writephoto

I have written a haibun on the prompt. The grassy patch was a nondescript part of the wild green that dotted the landscape. If you would pass by,you would hardly give it a second look. But if you would give it a careful perusal,you will find a hidden artist working his magic on Nature's canvas.…

Thursday photo prompt: Clouded #writephoto

The valley yonder, It left me entranced, Rolling into aeons of unknown, Encompassing, Embracing the tiny wisps,prickly bushes, Holding the tall trees, In a cloistered niche. Selfless and serene, It just merged into the majestic peaks, Its proud vanguard, That rose to meet the misty clouds, Thirsting to caress the lush lands, Envious of its…

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…

Colleen’s 2020 Weekly #Tanka Tuesday #Poetry Challenge No. 187 #PhotoPrompt

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/
