A doorway
Ornate opening
Lamps
Steps
Heralding a former time
Take a step forward.
Tentative
Wrought iron railings
Pensive
Questioning
Travelling back to days gone by
I pause to reflect

These are beautiful Michael I am especially taken with the second
Thank you Yves. I can’t see the linking tool or am i not looking?
Wonderful shadorma Michael…you’ve mastered the form and your words fit the photos so well!
Thank you Georgia, it’s a lovely challenge to do on a Saturday afternoon.
Thanks so much Michael…glad I helped you pass your afternoon in a pleasant way!
You did Georgia I am happy to see your prompt pop up.
🙂 thanks.
Writing very freely with these Michael, the words certainly tie in with the picture, giving a sense of past and longing.
Thank you Jenny, longing for a taste of the past do you think?
Yes, even for a moment to step back in time..
I really like that
Thank Al, have a good weekend.
You too 🙂
Always a bitter sweetness to travel back in time.
Thanks Kim yes you are right, thanks for your comment.
The words so fit the picture and the longing for a simpler time perhaps? Well done Michael.
Thanks Jackie yes simple is always best.
This is interesting. It really captures that strange feeling visiting a building from the past can conjure up sometimes – and an poetic form I am not familiar with. I will have to follow your link and investigate.
Thanks Suzanne and please do. It’s a challenge I enjoy and thanks for following my blog.
Niiice 🙂
Thannnnnnk you RoSy.
Very nice, Michael. I too especially love the 2nd stanza…lovely.
Thank you Oliana I appreciate your comment yes I like that one too.
The image seems to bring us back in time with memories not quite lost. You captured that so well.
Thank you so much
This is so so beautifully done, Michael. 🙂
Thank you Celestine. I appreciate you reading.
