a tale of tails, tenacity, and tedium, as told by me, usually barefoot and bellowing

The Mag 134 Breakfast

 Bless Tess at Magpie Tales.  She challenges us to write with a picture prompt.  I guess I have little creativity cause I'm drawing a blank.
Breakfast, 1921, Fernand Leger

BREAKFAST?

Two left hands
Sharing a scarf
Blow out the light
To make it dark.
Blues and orange
Table to the wall
I don't get it
I see nothing at all.
On the other hand
If I squint I can see
Two people
creating a fantasy.

You do such a good job of responding to these prompts that don't "speak" to me. I just stare at it for a minute and think, meh.

heehee

Such a good job on this one. I am still chuckling.

=)

I can see why you'd have a hard time writing with that prompt. But you did a good job just the same! Squinting DOES help with the images~!

Ha.
Looking at that would have left me brain dead.

You do a fantastic job, Gail, considering everything on your plate.
*hugs* and have a wonderful week. ♥

I'm looking at this n
what do I see
A darn ole puzzle
lookin back at me
My eyes do hurt,
my head is dizzy
All I can think of right now
is dear little Lizzy :)

It's all about the squinting!!!

Christine said...

sometimes writing about nothing, creates something, and squinting helps too
