Many of your photos, like this one, would make interesting poetry prompts.
Thanks, Maureen. Actually, there is a poetry connection to the images. Almost all the photos I post are snapshots taken during walks with my son, which have been the inspiration for many of my poems. Therefore, I often view the photographs as accompanying pieces complementing the content in some of my poems.
I just likes your poems! and your picture... wow!
