Eugi’s Weekly Prompt “Brilliance”, June 15, 2020

Goes beyond the words  

The Brilliance of nature

Indescribable 

Prized Catch

Suddenly I noticed this colorful moth ( is it a cricket/ grasshopper, friends?)  on the rearview mirror frame, came all the way to my building sitting pretty still.

For one more great picture of a grasshopper, please click here-

I hope it’s in my yard!

Unfair Play

How did it get so late so soon?

It’s time for a weekly quotation-inspired image.

If the quote inspires a pictorial or wordy post from you, do feel free to link in or to pop your URL in the comments.- Debbie Smyth

“How did it get so late so soon? It’s night before it’s afternoon. December is here before it’s June. My goodness how the time has flewn. How did it get so late so soon?”

Dr. Seuss

 

Unfair Play

how did it all pass away so soon

old age came before the youth could croon

how some young faces are full of wrinkles 

before they are swamped with 

smiles and twinkles

how did time so soon fly by

before saying a proper goodbye

how come nature is not fair for some

spring is so short, and

longest is autumn

Reena’s Exploration Challenge #78

(Today, we have a paragraph as a prompt. Do whatever you can with it. Reflect on it, twist it, break it into pieces and use a phrase or just write if you agree/disagree or whatever you think about it. As usual, there are no restrictions on length or format. Suit yourself.)

PROMPT

“That proves you are unusual,” returned the Scarecrow; “and I am convinced that the only people worthy of consideration in this world are the unusual ones. For the common folks are like the leaves of a tree, and live and die unnoticed.”
― L. Frank Baum, The Land of Oz

strange

if someone thinks

leaves live and die unnoticed

nature makes sure

you notice them

in every season

by changing their colors

they wither away

for sure

but

not before

they have served

their purpose

Beware of the 

fire of revenge

of a wounded ego

Beware of 

fury of nature

if abused or

misused

or overused

for greed

Beware of 

the fire of hunger

of any kind

Beware 

for they know

no forgiveness

Try to suppress them

they will

hollow you out from inside

like a termite

Fight them

they ruin you

with a vengeance

Just  be aware of them 

and treat 

with the love, care

and understanding

give them what is due 

Or

the result will be

devastating

and all humanity will suffer

I try to copy

nature with colors and brush

its greenery, trees

 with the bouquets of  colors 

could not copy rich fragrance

Spring- Photo Prompt

my gratitude to the mother nature

for blessing us with the spring

which gives us in abundance

the buds and the blooms and the colors

and for especially the cuckoo for sweet music

and the mango trees

who at the hint of the spring

get laden with fragrant blossoms

to give us mangoes in plenty

without discriminating 

the rich and poor
