Dale offers the theme “in bloom” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.
Linda Kruschke’s Paint Chip Challenge this past week requires us to use ten of the following:
sunflower, watermelon, pool, in your eyes, clear skies, before the rain, margarita, hot sauce, zest for life, heavenly, sunshine, total eclipse, out of the blue, the whole enchilada, and yellow brick road
Loss
In your eyes I saw clear skies
before the rain that day.
All left at once out of the blue,
the sunshine and the sunflower, too,
the hot sauce zest for life I knew.
Our margarita laughing pool
shut down. You went away.



Very nice, I really like the flower meadow planting
