Our Eyes Open

#Write Photo – Otherworldly

Flying in seemed easy
Headwinds caught the ship
Flat rocks to land upon
The controls, oops, I slipped.

Spiralling fast towards the river
Life flashed before my eyes
The cold water blasts my skin
Splat this little green guy dies.

Smeared along the rock bank
Martians have angels too
Goodbye to all you Earthlings
Fly away, bidding a long ado.

Sue Vincent is the host of Thursday Photo Prompt.  It has been a while since I've participated, but I have put it back on my calendar since I'm not working at the moment.

I live in Jacksonville, FL. I am graphic designer, writer, photographer and published author. I am now taking those passions & putting them into a blog that I mostly abandoned for two years. After a lot of surgeries and medical problems, I am starting to write again. I love birds & consider myself a “more than average” birder. I have 3 grown children & 8 grand children (6 living). I’m married to my soul mate, Frank. We love to travel & get out somewhere most weekends (soon to be anytime).

        I am so sorry to hear that, Lisa… so many people are in a similar position. But glad to hear you are using the enforced downtime positively.
