Even a tropical paradise has a shadow looming above it...
Author notes
Prompt: Picture B
Just a thought...that island looks so beautiful...but the lighting is so dark in the picture...looks like a grey cloud looming over it....even a paradise has a dark side...

Thank You!!
Thank You for Your entry: Paradise Island...
This piece tugged hard at Spirit and while I was reading which I do several times~ Images come to me in many forms~ while taking in Your words: shadow looming- now for some reason while reading this part of the verse- I am shown word: secret- as if a secret from the past unmasked- but only a few people know- that is how I am being shown but also reference to mistakes happen- after reading again- just what I am getting in images- reference to childhood trauma- it is like this feeling of rather forget type of situation- now this is what I kept seeing while reading However this to be interpreted
Whether metaphor or symbolism
Hopefully the above comment makes some sense~
Powerful take on the prompt ~
Excellent images & message You have brought forth
Thank You for sharing Your Talent and Spirit!
Best wishes to You in the contest Sweet Soul
**Judging will be done shortly...
Many blessings too
and much love & light~ Desire~*~
