You really jumped on this prompt; nicely done. You’re the first Ive encountered who chose that image. I found an uncommon one too. Writing to images is always stimulating.
A lovely piece…no truer words ever spoken. It is up to us to notice, as in the “Color Purple,” she said, “if there is a field of purple, and you don’t notice, it really pisses off God.” I think the universe is set up for your happiness…so be happy!
A wise message spoken so sweetly. I just love that you began with the word, “scintillating”. I read your poem before realizing that we came up with the same title for our poems.
The certainty of seed, stem and bloom is attractive indeed in its simplicity. The sensual outer layer can beguile, but certainty is the real attraction.
to meet the sultriest day with the brightest blush….very strengthening indeed…i love everything about this poem Sanaa, from the picture to the title to the words…
I love that the photo looks like an exclamation mark. And you have punctuated it well, with your words. π
