Wrote this for the National Poetry Writing Month or NaPoMoFo over at Google+
The word prompts for today were: tonight, thwart, umbilical, haphazard, journal, precise and dichotomy. You can use some, all or use them just for inspiration.
I came up with Birthing the Blossom
Bloom, rise, reach for the sky.
Your umbilical stem will always provide.
The wet, heavy earth only thwarts you tonight,
as your purpose is coded and oh so precise.
When tomorrow’s sun shines, the time will be right
for dichotomy’s branching into the light.
Nice, and it works beautifully with the image.
Thank you for taking the time to come by to read it!
Ah…beautiful Marie. From a list of words you created magic – poof like that!
You manage so easily to make me smile. I appreciate you!
Beautiful as always!
Thanks! It’s harder when someone gives you the words to use.
