not an abstract perception

melting as we klatch

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

when dreams were purple

smoke on the water

riffing on a new guitar

teenage fantasy

This prompt immediately brought me back to middle school when every aspiring teenage rock band played this song. Aaah the memories of being at dances in my seventh grade gym listening to a group of eight-grade boys rock this tune.

Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

in the stillness

Tina Stewart Brakebill

in the stillness, light

pushing against the darkness

a promise laid bare

sunrise under cloudy sky illustration

Thanks to Sue and her #writephoto challenge and photo.

I’ve been struggling with … a lot these past few weeks. And as I try to dig myself out of my funk, writing this reminded me that I’ll be OK. The light will return if I let it in. (I hope.)
