He gazed upon the field, trying to recall what was lost so very long ago.
The field was comprised of wonderment,
yellows upon reds upon violets,
the sky a pale blue.
Forever gone.

Enjoyed both the poem and the photo!
Thank you so much! I loved yours as well 🙂
🙂
I had no idea you were so good at poetry!!
Great job on a difficult project!!
🙂 Hah! Me neither!
I could see the colors in my mind…I’d like to be in that field 🙂
🙂 Me too
Lovely piece. The sorrow really shows through.
Thanks! I really enjoyed yours as well!
Loved the bright colours in your poem, juxtaposed against a grey-scale picture. Well done!
Thanks! I’m a newbie and loved the challenge of writing such a short piece on such a broad prompt.
I love that you chose a BW photo to go with your words. Your words paint the colors on the “blank” canvas.
Thank you so much and thanks for reading!
I come back to read posts and there are no ecards or cat pictures? Geez, how long have I been away?
Don’t get sass with me Don! I haven’t read any shit from you in ages!
Cat pictures come tomorrow, don’t you worry 🙂
Your talent seems to be unending. Great poem and wonderful picture choice.
Oh wow. Thank you so much!
I love that those things mentioned in the poem could actually be gone soon from this earth and that they are in fact forever gone from the photo itself.
That’s a great (although sad) observation! Thanks for reading!!
As Bryan says above, the juxtaposition of the colours in your poem and the black and white image is very effective.
Thank you so much!!
Where did it all go? Why forever? That’s so sad… My dad, an environmentalist, artist and poet, would have loved this poem.
That’s up to you to interpret 🙂 Thanks for reading!
So beautiful and so sad. And I really love the contrast of the image with your words.
Thank you so much 🙂
I love that you used a photo with no color. The contrast of the colors in the poem stood out for me.! D
Thanks so much! 🙂
the color upon color, lost in a forever blue. a very pretty poem.
Thanks so much!!
What was lost so long ago – Love the appeal of this line.
Thank you!
A great poem, fitted the prompt beautifully.
Thank you so much! I enjoyed trying something new. I’m not used to short posts 🙂
I also enjoyed the beauty and color of the poem and how it intertwined with a colorless photo. Great work !
Thank you so much!
“The field was comprised of wonderment”
Love that line! The black-and-white photo really conveys the beauty lost. Nice!
Thank you so much for stopping by and reading! 🙂
oh 😦 sadness – love the colors upon colors. 🙂
Thank you so much for reading!
“…yellows upon reds upon violets,”
This awesome against “…what was lost long ago.”
Nice contrast.
Thanks so much!
No misplaced memory for me as I look across the fields on my farm bought 17 years ago. Well done!
🙂 Thanks so much for stopping by!
