Most of the photos were taken last weekend in North Carolina's Appalachian Mountain area - fairly close to the Virginia state border. In a few months... my "backyard"
Please submit an original poem and link your specific post to Mr. Linky below and be sure to make it clear which challenge you are resurrecting by including a link. You may use my photos, but it is not required.
As always, please be neighborly and visit the other wonderful poets.
1) Imagined by Kerry O'Connor "Paul Laurence Dunbar - 7 line stanza poem"
2) Imagined by Grapling "Masks"
3) Imagined by Herotomost "Its ma thing.... nostalgia"
I posted an old entry to an old challenge which is highlighted above (#1). I think I entered it late to the challenge three years ago and not many saw it. It also happens to coincide with the photos I posted for this challenge - this whole area and riding/walking trail will be five minutes from where we will soon be living.
ReplyDeleteSo, forgive the linking to an old post... but I will also be linking a new one (probably Monday as we have visitors this weekend).
Gorgeous photog.

ReplyDeleteNice challenge finds, Margaret. I did the first, it was fun, I like fitting forms, the mechanics part. The poetic part? Well, let's say I like to write.
ReplyDeleteToo, I will be here tomorrow to she how you handled your challenges.
