Hello there! Hannah here with nature’s amazement #4 to cause your muses to be hungry and haunted!
Feast on this…
Hitachi Seaside Park, located in Hitachinaka, Ibaraki prefecture, Japan, next to the Ajigaura Beach, is a flower park and a popular tourist destination. The park covers an area of 3.5 hectares and the flowers are amazing all year round. Each season you will find a different variety of flower blossoming over the “Miharashi No Oka”, a hill commanding a panoramic view of the Pacific Ocean. The park is particularly famous for blue nemophilas. Nemophilas are annual flowers with transparent blue petals. During spring, more than 4.5 million blue nemophilas bloom all over the park. The blooming period is called “Nemophilia Harmony” and attracts many visitors, (Tech and Facts).

The opening scenes in this short video are strikingly haunting…
Caused me to think of a direction...if one chooses to accept...a challenge, perhaps…
In your poems today let’s try to bring a focal point...if one were to create contrast in a way that this specific scene in this film does...with these tall, dark, powerful trees standing amidst such ethereal, colorful, fragile beauty...so you can choose what your focus will be but try to bring a contrast and climax with your imagery, sensory and otherwise.
You may write about this place in paticular or qualities of it if you wish or if you’re inspired in a different way by these offerings than give that muse free reign to express herself/himself.
Have fun...remember to visit as many blogging peeps as you can, (that’s the fun supportive part), and please write and link only new pieces for this challenge!
Thank you!! :)’s
