Use this image and phrase as prompt:
"Raising ancient voices to the wind."
Be sure to give proper credit if image is added.
I see quite a bit in this natural photo...
am anxious to see what it shows you.
GUIDELINES:
11 entries only, I will not bother
to comment on any that don't follow
the theme or guidelines.
I challenge you to write a spiritual
personification of nature
without any BIBLICAL reference and...
without mentioning wolves or rocks.
Personification: 3. A figure of speech
in which inanimate objects or abstractions
are endowed with human qualities or
are represented as possessing human form.
Anything remotely intolerant or tactless
will be removed without notice or comment.
Give it to me in fluid free-verse or form.
Give me spirituality, metaphor, and
tons of feeling.
Contest will be judged when all eleven
have completed their entries...or in
a couple of days; whichever comes first~~~
if you reserve, be sure to return.
Use common sense and read the guidelines...

thought upon the page. Blessings, Blue

That image is awsome! It has to be in Arizona or New Mexico high country. I love the red rock pastels of many shades from that area. It's like a surreal wonderland of magic to me.This should inspire any poet to write.
