The lovely Helene of Willow Poetry has challenged us with “What do you See?”. You may write a poem, haiku, tanka or short story that represents what you see or feel within you. More info can be found in the link below.
Oh my, Petunia, this is just what we need
Do you think anyone will notice, if we go?
Her cat looked out, in a most curious way
Not quite sure what happened to the snow
Through the door of her dreams, lay a beach
Blue skies, white clouds, and palm trees sway
Not like back home, with the dark and drear
Where the days were nothing more than gray
The sun brightened, as they stood there in awe
Warmth filled this place, not covered in white
Surely, they wouldn’t miss them, for a short while
The one’s left back home, on that cold winter night

The story of this poem is incredible! The picture was a perfect setting for what you wrote, and I hope you continue with more tales (hehe) of “Petunia” and the doors she looks through.

I enjoyed your poem. It’s wonderful. It’s cold here and your poem makes me wish I had a dream door to the beach.
