Photographers and Poets Wednesday

(M) for Moon Rising ~ ABC Wednesday and Outdoor Wednesday



WEDNESDAY POST ~ Sometimes my 'spirit' take a siesta and I need to listen to it. After all music has 'rests' in its composition for a reason. Have been trying to draw ArtMuse Dog again. She is a real challenge for me to sketch her ~ not sure why. It will come. In the meantime, we have a photo of a 'rising moon' and two haikus for you today.

haiku(prompt ~ 'fresh')

each day fresh time
new life exhilirating
peace within find.
-o-


haiku(prompt ~ 'rainbow')

sometimes rainbows visit
rain is their companion, friend
balance of joy, sorrow.
-o-


Today we are sharing with:

  1. Love the photos and the haiku. I believe that is a box elder bug on the window.

  2. Your moon picture is haunting I keep going back to it. I really like how its just out of focus. are those fishermen's cottages?....it would be a perfect subject for a watercolour painting:)

  5. In New York, that bug is called a "stink bug" or officially, called the conifer bug. They live in the conifer trees in the summer and in the fall hibernate in our houses if they can get in. We have tons of them every year!

  6. Enjoyed your haiku....and your fuzzy (haloed?) moon♫♪

  7. The bug on the window reminds me of bugs that decide to take up residence on our security cameras. Every once in awhile we go out and "ask" a bug to leave so we can see what the camera is supposed to show us rather than the underside of a bug. ;)

  9. I like the moon shot, even with its blurriness...makes it look very watercolorish.

  10. Love the moon shot!
    I can't seem to draw anything very well--LOL! I have to use photos and trace them to manage anything decent, so I admire anyone who can draw.
    That bug--not a grasshopper. Funny shot, though.
    Enjoy your Wednesday!! :)

  16. I always find peacefulness inside the forest.

    It is a rainbow, a paradise or whatever I may think of.

  21. The moon is huge ! I don't think that the inseect is a grasshopper. They look more funny and not so "disgusting" !

  22. your water shot makes me a bit dizzy. :)

  23. Beautiful haiku about "fresh" and "rainbow", Carol.
    That bug on the window is not a grasshopper; the antennae of a grasshopper are not so long, its legs are different and its head is not so small, so it's not a grasshopper at all! (at least the ones we have here don't look like that one)
    :)

  27. I love music but I'm one of those people who doesn't want background music. I need to actually LISTEN to music to appreciate it. Thanks for visiting my blog :}
