Us

One Shoot Picture prompt ~ Image by Katherine Forbes
~

Shadow connections
Smoothing corrugated worlds
Our secret mural

Our different shoes
Prime points in a pyramid
A frame for our souls

Facing each other
Shaping lone spaces with love
As one in blue jeans
~

One Shoot Sunday is hosted by Dustus @ One Stop Poetry

Chris G. said...: Interesting approach to this...space and angles, approaching the romantic through the formation of its image. Constructive, building the romantic gradually through the creation/description of the shadowed joining before our eyes. Nice work.; January 17, 2011 at 4:46 PM
