Play it Again Poetry Prompt

 
King
               soars in blue
                        blanket of stars,  on clouds' silver threads
                              tangled in pinwheel's gold
                                        crowned by mountain's purple eyes




gift
     cherub born
sky's periwinkle gown lifts as head crowns
Lunar acts as midwife
     Red sun sailor's delight now cries





Mom
time shifted
waves washed ashore my skin leaving
crow's feet and crevices
I see you smile in my mirror
eyes reflect pale jade treasure

 © Ella Wilson


A big shout out to editor, Devon Warren and Stampington & Company~  Thank you, so much for picking my photo inspired post card art to grace the pages of The Stampers' Sampler~   I am thrilled-to the moon and back!!
