I have a photo up at one of my favorite online magazines, tinywords. The editors chose it as an interim feature between issues, a visual writing prompt for fans of the site:
While we are assembling the next issue, tinywords invites you to get inspired by Dave Bonta’s beautiful photograph above. Add your short poems inspired by his image “new ice” to our comment box below.
Thank you for lending your voices. And thanks to Dave for lending his photo. We will consider the best of the best for possible inclusion in tinywords 13.1.
Happy New Year!
Please stop by and contribute a poem to the growing collection. I wrote my own haiku in response to the photo back in January 2008 at Woodrat Photohaiku:
bone-white sticks
trapped in the cross-hatch foliage
new blue ice
I must say, I don’t like the ch/g alliteration in “cross-hatch foliage” — a sure sign that the image, too, is forced.
wonderful image ~ a delight to engage!
Thank you!
