three word wednesday: wealth, hassle, inject ; writer’s island no 10 prompt: fork in the road ; photo: Cuba Gallery – www.cubagallery.co.nz, flickr
an ocean away from the bp gulf scandal, new zealand blue….
challenging the motion
she took one look
at the far horizon
and synchronized
every glance
held a wealthy whiff
of clean salty air
bobbing and weaving
with no desire to land
she’s weighing the anchor
a collaborating collusion
swimming to shore the
hassle of civility
crash the sudden scent of honeysuckle
cloaked cloud of tranquility
emanating fusion, a soothing injection
sense the serpentine vines
of attachment
a nice cool breeze of words
Absolutely love the photo and it sets up the poem really well. I like the tranquility here, and in your words.

The words bring out the pic perfectly.
Beautiful and breezy poem!

Lovely, and I love the picture as well as the poem. Well written!
I loved this poem – a wonderful mood-changer. And the picture is great – strange, but great!
breezy and delightful
Amazing photograph and wonderful poem.
first, i absolutely adore the picture (tone and its composition) second, the poem itself is making the picture alive. 4th stanza is the strongest
