Haiku & Other Poetry, tutto e niente

he waits

in silence he waits

his heart captured by her love

faithful till the end

It wasn’t my intention to double up prompts for this challenge but both images conjured similar feelings for me. As if they are two warriors on opposite sides of a battle, patiently waiting for that moment when they’re released from their assigned posts. Hoping, against all hope, that love will be there to welcome them back.

So thanks to Sadje for keeping the What do you see? challenge alive. And thanks to Sue for the always fabulous Write Photo Challenge.

Deniers

imagine the world

not an abstract perception

melting as we klatch
