May Blossoms
A Mikeydred May prompt
For May blossoms, perennial and strong
I raise a voice in chorus with the spheres
Revel in the joyful hues of Spring’s song
Caught in the grip of a winter, lifelong
I found new seasons in your eyes, thankful
For May blossoms, perennial and strong
Generations pass their pallet along
Emerald Isles birthed emerald eyes
Revel in the joyful hues of Spring’s song
The buzz of bees and passionate birdsong
Brought us a blue wildflower, praise be
For May blossoms, perennial and strong
Every day a mother to your throng
A striking bouquet of eight, unique blooms
Revel in the joyful hues of Spring’s song
Born under a stubborn constellation
You set the night sky ablaze with new myths
For May blossoms, perennial and strong
Revel in the joyful hues of Spring’s song

Travel Snaps Challenge Winners
Travel changes us — if we let its lessons in. It’s possible to wander the world, even to take pictures, with our eyes as good as closed, never opening to the new self that a new place might make of us. So many of the entries to our Travel Snaps challenge were by creators who really wanted to look at the world, and themselves, anew. They were all inspiring to read — and to see, because photography was an important part of this competition. To us, the ‘quality’ of the photographs wasn’t the point; it was that these images were yours. It was a reminder of how much more that can mean — certainly when it comes to personal essays — than widely available or AI images. We really loved seeing these snaps.

Somehow this felt blue all the way through. Like bluebells I guess.
