The tree by my window
its ablaze again
Orange blossoms
hang heavy in the fresh spring air
Not long ago
it lay bare
its brown silhouette
standing sentry to my coldest nightmares
When the monsoons came
it played the perfect host
guarding fledglings
against piercing raindrops
Soon summer will knock
against our door
the koel will return
with her cheerful notes
reminding us
that time has flown
But the tree and me
we both know
in our world
tides no longer change
we live forever
in the season of pain
The Weekly photo challenge is essentially a photo challenge. A fact that I always ignore to suit my “non-existent” photography abilities! But if like me you appreciate good photography and have the time you must visit these other entries.

romantic photography:
your words:
in our world

in the season of pain
Thank you! Frizztext! though what do they say about a picture being worth a hundred words!!! 🙂
awwww 😦
the lovely poem ends with such pain.
but I guess that’s just how the seasons change … bittersweet 🙂
I like the way how you change the photo challenge to one of creating a photo with words 🙂
I like the way you put that “creating a photo with words”. mind if I borrow the line? Will come in handy every week!
will do that! But are you supposed to be logged in as someone else? who?
🙂 that was just the official me.
i was logged in to upload some stuff on the Association’s Blog and forgot I was not on my personal one. Thanks for removing that one.
god i did that again. please remove the earlier one.
i saw your comment there and replied to it automatically again forgetting that it was not my personal blog.
that was part of my official side. sorry for the hassle. 🙂
its ok amira! no hassle at all
oh! got that! ok so now am I sitting on a secret bit of info?
Lovely poem, and using a prompt creatively like this is excellent. I have no true photographic abilities either… I just point and shoot.
point and shoot is what photographs are all about! I’ve seen your blog! you do pretty well
Wonderful poetry. 🙂
Thank you 🙂
thankyou!
You paint us pictures with your words, oft times better than any photograph

Such beauty, such pain… life! TY for sharing:-)
Awww.. that’s such a sweet comment! Thanks for making my day!
