When Art Inspires Poetry

I was thrilled when Grace asked if she could use several of my images for this Sunday's Poetry Challenge over at Imaginary Garden With Real Toads.
 
Below are those that she chose as jumping off points.


I can't wait to read where these images take people.  Won't you join me over at Imaginary Garden With Real Toads to read their poem entries or why not submit a poem of your own using one of these images as inspiration.

  8. These are beautiful images. I have a harder time with image prompts than I do with word prompts. I will have to let these percolate for a while and see what comes out.

  13. I love your work, especially your fondness for texture and layering images --- like the feather across the face and the leaf in the hand.
