look closer

living in the wild
a splash of purple whimsy
roaming the prairie
free spirits amongst many
reaching out to be noticed

Sometimes true beauty requires a much
closer and deeper look…

Thanks 😉 I am trying to distract myself by looking at what is around me. The interesting thing is I am still drawing on metaphors that I wish for, hope for;)

Very nice! It made me want to leap about. Words that make me feel whimsy and like I want to leap are grand indeed. 🙂 Excellent metaphor. Love the images too.

Thank you. The vibe is there, I just have to dig it out sometimes. All of these pieces are metaphors really- in what I see, perceive and feel. xxxx

Couldn’t see them at first but the closer deeper view was well worth the look. Lovely, words and photos. xPenx

Your connection to dance is evident in your words in this poem too.

once a dancer, always a dancer…..

You can take the person out of the dance but not the dancer out of the person.
