#Write Photo – Neptune – Haiku

Written for #WritePhoto – Neptune

Photo by KL Caley

KL Caley has resumed #WritePhoto challenge for the inspirational Sue Vincent who is terminally ill.

My name is Neptune
Marriage of Heaven and Earth
Embellish the stream.

A good day to fish
Mystic God of freshwater
Spear the next victim.

Chirping of the birds
Pollen floats down from above
Embrace the spring temps.

Info for the Challenge

For visually challenged writers, the image shows a statue of King Neptune with his trident poised to catch a fish in a lake reflecting the green of the surrounding trees.

The regulars already know this bit, but for those that don’t:

  • Each Thursday at Noon GMT I will post the #writephoto prompt
  • Use the image and prompt as inspiration to create a post on your own blog… poetry, prose, humour… light or dark, whatever you choose, as long as it is fairly family-friendly.
  • Please have your entries linked back to the original prompt post by the following Tuesday at Noon GMT.
  • Link back to this post with a pingback (Hugh has an excellent tutorial here)  and/or leave a link in the comments below, to be included in the round-up.
  • Please click their links to visit the blogs of other contributors and take time to read and comment on their work.
  • Use the #writephoto hashtag in your title so your posts can be found.
  • There is no word limit and no style requirements, except that your post must take inspiration from the image and/or the prompt word given in the title of this post.
  • Feel free to use #writephoto logo or include the prompt photo in your post if you wish, or you may replace it with one of your own to illustrate your work.
  • By participating in the #writephoto challenge, please be aware that your post may be featured as a reblog on this blog and I will link to your post for the round-up each week.

    Great post. It’s almost lyrical in it’s reading. I especially liked this line, Embellish the stream. Thank you so much for joining in with #writephoto. KL ❀

      Thank you so much! I’m glad to see that someone took the reins. We are so going to miss Sue. She is one tough cookie hanging on bless her for continuing to inspire! Thank you for taking this over. I never took it off my weekly board. πŸ™‚

      Thanks Jim! I’m glad to be back at the creative writing. Spring came and went, but will be back by the end of this week. A Nor’easter came in on Saturday and is still here with high winds. A 45-50 mph wind gust damaged our bird feeder system yesterday. None of Frank’s new feeders were damaged that hit the ground. Good construction! One pole completely damaged and the other…not sure yet! It has been compromised. πŸ™‚

        sorry to hear about the bad weather – but that’s impressive that the bird feeders survived!

        I know. Frank wasn’t surprised…at least not that he was willing to admit. πŸ™‚

        Thanks Jim. Yes, he doesn’t lack in confidence except when he is in new design mode. LOL! πŸ™‚
