But life got in the way
I've been really swamped
And almost lost my way
I wanted to create Shakespeare style
I wanted sunset words to sing
I thought of trees for a while
But on paper I couldn't do a thing.
So I gathered pictures
Of trees and sunsets
Played within strictures
I haven't got it yet
So I combined trees and sunsets but no festival this time
Shakespeare style with less with thirty-five lines

ha. you wrapped together a bit of everything there...there is irony in not being able to write about trees on paper...smiles.
yes, writing can be like that sometimes...i like your photo fest anyway :)
life does get in the way sometimes :)
You did indeed capture both sunsets and trees despite your lack of inspiration. Carry on. I enjoyed this posting.
Words and pictures both beautiful!
But still you posted, so I say bravo! I so know about being over-loaded. It is my middle name!
Sounds like you got it!
Oh this is delightful Gail...love it
:)
This sings and really is delightful, i know how you feel, life is a mixture of ups and downs. :)
love this! ~
Ha I did enjoy this.
Lovely pictures too.
Life will be on tracks soon, have faith.
And well done also.
Perhaps, since the Poetry Jam prompt is up all week, you might be able to come up with a poem that IS about either a carnival or a festival or Mother's Day as time goes on... We will look forward to it.
Funny, when you mentioned Sunrise,Sunset, one thing came to mind for me:
Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly flow the days
Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers
Blossoming even as we gaze
Sunrise, sunset
Sunrise, sunset
Swiftly fly the years
One season following another
Laden with happiness and tears
(Fiddler On The Roof) - I find myself singing it now as I read your poem and I'm laughing....kinda for I felt like writing something one time and all I got were two sentences:
"On this writing, I'll not do well
Surrounded by mosquito's, biting like hell"
It was a grand moment.....but..... ha,ha Have a wonderful day, hi to all lol
I have not time too to do all the prompts, smiles ~ I like how you weave it all together, ha ~
Ha.. very clever.. really a lot of prompts at the same time..
In your own unique way you make it work better than if you had done it according to the rules, I like your own interpretation. Usually it turns out better that way, Gail. Don't sell yourself short. xox
Sometimes we get too busy but, you were able to pull something together and I enjoyed the pics..
Life can be busy...so busy at times....we all see it but only a few live it!...:)JP
