So this year I thought I’d shake things up a bit and challenge myself, so I am mixing up the prompts and attempting them in no organised order I am simply following where my heart guides me
Also my original idea was to get the words on the image itself which I terribly failed at. 🙁
Just to refresh (Prompt #5 of 2020- Using one or more of these images as a jumping off point, write a poem. All of the images are sourced from Unplash.)
They’re all roots darling,
we are all deeply connected to the cosmos.
up high -reaching for the sky
the other is beneath the ground we tread..
Our journeys may vary
but our destination is the same..
We’re all headed in the same direction.
We meet in full circles
living our lives
Another trip around the sun.
We rejoice and mourn,
we feel everything so deeply,
we bleed, burn, still we rise.
we cry, lose,
we fight and fail.
we are continually growing towards the sun.
We reunite and we connect.
We’re all roots darling.
I love the idea here, of earth & sky roots., I’d love to see a 2nd stanza!
I will try working on it.
We meet in full circles,
living our lives,
Another trip round the sun.
We rejoice and mourn,
we feel everything so deeply,
we bleed, we burn, still we rise.
we cry, we loose, we fight.
We fail, we grow towards the sun.
We reunite and we connect.
We’re all roots darling.
A wonderful read… I esp. love the lines “Our journeys may vary/ but our destination is the same” and of course the second stanza is gold. Well done ^^
thank you Bhasha I enjoyed writing this one. 🙂
“We’re all roots darling” love that line! Such wisdom in this poem! So profound!
