Indigo skies hang low in
stucco landscapes; she rests in a tapestry,
tucked away somewhere deep inside
valleys filled with topiary …
a place to recline in silk and lace,
leaning on rocks’ coolness, balancing,
placing night behind her
Shifting clouds in the background
leave layers on her silhouette,
worn, loose and plaintive,
reposed

Just beautiful, Pamela!

ReplyDeleteGlad that you did. Wonderful writing and it so underlines the reality of the photo. Amazing stuff and love how you made it flow liesurely to combine both subject and landscape,

Why thanks, Elizabeth:) You should go to flickr and look for his photography. I find it quite unusual, and his models are fabulous.
ReplyDeleteYour descriptive words certainly do this image justice. A beautiful piece.
ReplyDeleteRenee, thanks, I love this guy's photography. You should look him up in flickr.
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful. I especially love the indigo skies!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sherry:)
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely with a refined gentleness. I like it immensely.
ReplyDeleteLoose- except for the tension in her toes? In fact, the whole thing has the same tension coiled like a spring, ready beneath the stillness...
ReplyDeletePamela, lovely. This would work just fine without the picture; you capture her so well.
