THE PLACE WITHIN

Weekly Writing Challenge: Flash Fiction

Path to a Dream

The paths lead to high rockery beds
Under azalea trees of pink pompom heads

The higher the paths the clearer the views
Of rolling mountains and snow tops too

Walk downward through daffodils, snowdrops on display
The lower paths yield to colours that pave the way

In a carpet of yellow, a half-moon seat
Under trees and patterns a glorious treat

The steps direct to mountains and skylines of blue
The windy path, to a fountain of quiet will do

With a field and a gate that entices the feet
To a hidden tarn in the summer heat

With tall grasses, a stillness, reflections, so calm,
And swans watch as the sun beams down to charm

An abandoned shack once had a boat
That glided the water and slowly did float

Where you and I could have slept the night
The full moon would have glistened and beamed so bright

Tourmaline Sky

Wondrous sky that gleams
With colours that beam
Of pink tourmalines

To cleanse round the soul
Put stresses on hold
Comfort you whole

Drink in evening array
As earth reflects away
A gift to display

Garden of Peace

  magnolia

To feast the day long
Open wide my heart
To ethereal song

Eyes engage to see
The light inside the dawn
The possibility

Beam of true colours
The gateway to heaven
Is found here in others

The path seems so real
The garden on earth, here,
Today, in how I feel

Only now I do tell
Mind, printing paradise
Carries peace where I dwell

Silk Petals

Pansy

 

 

Silk petal detail
Like a bridal veil
In a fairy tale

Luxuriant care
As delicate as air
Flows finely with flare

Beauty, entirely
Of voile ivory
The garden’s finery

Coloured Memories

coloured hills

I am more than
Just skin and bones
I am sense, feeling
No pile of stones

I see colour
Not black and white
I look skywards
To see the light

I can feel warmth
Of touch, connect
I remember
I recollect

My memory
Holds pictures too
Of scenes, of plays
A field of view

Weekly Photo Challenge: Perspective – Haiku to Spring

pink azalea 3

The azalea
Springs open with pink scented
Blooms to lift the mood

As the sun rises
Higher to brighten the earth
It mirrors by noon

The shade of the trees
Treasures the small delicate
Golden daffodils
