This picture came from another blog I have joined. It was a writing prompt. Here is the poem I wrote after looking at it.
Lucky Duck
Before my eyes alit, I knew
When
I looked up
Who
I would see
You’ve come unannounced to visit
Delighted to see you, though
Not surprised
You are with me each moment
I am away
Break of day into night
Lifeblood
Once strangers, now
Kindred spirits
We
Kismet?
Not so
Life
Hit or miss
Sliding doors
Serendipity smiles
One and one makes two
You and I
Universal sum
I memorize you daily
Your form, your smell,
your tongue
I watch as you lay there bathed
Early morning sun
A vision that sustains me
In my head while I’m gone
Away
Halved and
Whole
Our song
Drowns out the morning
Quacks
Fowl who must die
At my hands
You must have sensed my dismay
This morning as I sulked
To see you here
Pure joy
My love
For you
I consider myself
Lucky Duck

Thank you Tess! It was a wonderful writing exercise for me. Opened up a whole new way for me to get inspired. I enjoy your blog and will follow that yellow brick road!

Thank you so much. It was an excellent writing prompt. Up to now I had used only word prompts to spark ideas. From here on out it will be photos for me. Like them!
