Doors Along the Street—Thursday Doors

Although there are normal looking streets in Prague’s more modern areas, around the old town they are narrow with shops lining the mostly pedestrian paths.

Actually, I don’t know much about Prague. The reason I’m running my mouth is because I have to move the photos down on the page so they can be displayed better.

Sacred Song—Ovi Poetry Challenge

Sacred words, how they abound.
They whisper with a louder sound.
They turn a doubting heart around
to praise once more with song.

Ronovan Hester offers “persevere” as the inspiration for this week’s Ovi Poetry Challenge. Those sacred words persevere. Also posted on Poet’s Corner.

Down in the Park

Dale offers the prompt “down in the park” for this week’s Cosmic Photo Challenge.

From our townhome I can see the parkway. Walking down the hill and crossing the road I am in a park which used to be a golf course. There are trails, open spaces, a lake built from a dam and an occasional abandoned building.

These photos were taken over the past two years since we moved here.

East End of Charles Bridge in Prague—Thursday Doors

Look through the arch and you will see a building. Look closer towards the center of the two photos and you will see a middle door with two side doors.

The arch way is a kind of door or entrance as well leading to Prague’s Old Town.

If you go in the other direction crossing the Vltava River you will reach the castle.

Three doors in the distance. We are standing on Charles Bridge.
A bit closer at another time of day. Charles Bridge is behind. The old town plaza with the clock tower is straight ahead.

Cheer—Ovi Poetry Challenge

When tears that let you see arrive
you’ll feel at last you’ve come alive.
You’ll hear Him tell you softly, “I’ve
been with you all this time.”

Bond—Six Sentence Story

One day Jeremy decided to give Samuel a piece of his mind. His mind started off calmly enough, but then it entered the Land of Half-Truths where words were prized more for the pain they caused than for their clarity.

Seeing Samuel’s silence suddenly change into laughter, Jeremy demanded to know: What are you so happy about?

I’m watching that little demon run your mouth.

Realizing it was noticed, the demon fled. With the demon gone the bond of commitment to his own righteousness that guided Jeremy through fantasy land dissipated like a dream he desperately wanted to remember, but no longer could.

The Cathedral of Saint Vitus—Thursday Doors

The first four photos are of parts of the entrance doors. The last one is a view of the cathedral from a distance.

This is only part of one of the doors
You can see the two doors at the bottom and I just noticed there are two more doors
