This is a prompting Blog

My intent here is to write a poem from the prompt I give to you , the reader, in hopes that it will inspire something and get others to write with me.

Friday Poetically with Brian Miller

Today at OSP Brian is hosting and has a wonderful artist James Rosenquist who is inspiring in many ways ! Brian challenges us to take a look at James' work and write a poem... we found this one ... We are once again trying our hand at aflash 55 and invite you to try it too...OURS IS...


Black and grey
In dreams
time's melodic strings
plucked,
eggs hold the fates
strung to the fantasies
that swirl
the realities that beckon
pushed
by the pencils that
tic toc- toc tic
blur the imagination
the unchanging face
four thirty, five forty,
just a baster for the time in dreams
where life melts away

YOUR TURN
ENJOY

    That is amazing poem that would stand alone without the picture. What a beautiful poem to go along with the art work. You are amazing JL.
    Blessings
