Picture Prompt # 16 One of 2 PIF Contests from GreenHrtPaleMoon

This is a PIF Picture Prompt contest.
I recently won this contest => http://allpoetry.com/contest/2408671
by GreenHrtPaleMoon with this poem => http://allpoetry.com/poem/4308505
That was for a very generous amount of 1000 points =>
I'll be dividing that into 2 contests with gold for 500 (300 to PIF and 200 to keep)

The picture is your prompt.
Let its colors, form and movement speak to you and tell us what you heard... be very poetic, but unobtrusive!

Limitations:
20 words - 20 lines
Free verse is preferred
Plain backgrounds
Align left unless your form dictates otherwise

The contest will close if there are fewer than 5 entries.

The picture was borrowed from one of Arkbear's contests and is used with his permission here.
Painting by Tim Seaward, title - Summer Autumn, Dimensions: 102x102x3.5cm (40x40x.1.5 inches), Acrylics, 2006, part of the White Spirit Series.

Contest is Over

  • Contest was judged on July 12
  • Rewards: Gold: 500, Silver: 200, Bronze: 100, Honorable mention: 5 people
  • Final notes:
    Okay, I finally finished...
    Results are in. Thank you all for your varied and thoughtful entries. The first place winner displayed an amazing density of diction, second place - an original and startling point of view and third showed pensive hope. I found many fresh approaches and creative expressions in the honorable mentions. Congratulations everyone! I hope to see you soon in future contests.
    GOLD - please don't forget to PIF
