With a scent, divine

7th in the “Saturday Stars” photography series on my blog.

This Great Blue Heron resides in Packanack Lake in Wayne, NJ.  Appears to be the perfect place to catch lunch   😉

I will be taking weekends off from sharing poetry until further notice, so I decided to share some of my favorite photos.  I hope you enjoy them.  Of course, I’ll still be doing my #DailyHaikuChallenge/September Writing.  🙂

It was her daily routine, dawn til dusk

She sat by the window, searching

Hidden behind the slatted blinds

She looked, hoping he would be lurking

Day after day, she sat there

No one came calling for her

Night after night, same as the day

Eventually, it became just a blur

You can see where the blinds remain parted

There, her fingers kept them pushed apart

Though she no longer sits by the window

She remains hidden, alone, with an empty heart

 

Writing Prompt: Between the Lines – Day 29/30

Magical autumn

Arrives on morning’s cool air

Stays all through the night

A little bit of pixie dust

Lay scattered, on the ground

Magically, the trees would change

Their colors, quite profound

A mystical elfin treasure

Mother Nature put on land

She’d color the world in a beautiful way

Autumn, she said, must be grand!

But in order for this to happen

No color could this sprite contain

She must leave it behind in the forest

Until winter came calling again

It was only then she could reclaim

The beauty she left behind

Waiting for autumn to return once more

Was all that she had on her mind
