Life's Adventure



Ahoy, adventures and pirates; couples and lovers all on board..
We will travel through the night this day, through life this day..
So owls are asked to shine their eyes wide, bright
And lead the way, like the stars in the heavens, lead the way
No room for parrots
They talk too much 
Always giving away our hide out spots


The tide will go down after a while
The adventure, will slow down in it steps 
Poppy flowers, will be plucked surrender (ed)
To honour the dead in passing
And we will have many a story or two to tell
While sitting on old derelict boats or two 
Strolling hand in hand, looking out to sea 
And cherishing t' good old days we had together

  1. Ha! Creative use of each prompt, woven together well, and even provides a bit of humor. Given the the gentleman's photo, he could easily mistake the bird in flight for a parrot; and since the guy in the last photo has his back turned to us, there's no reason he cannot be the same man as in the first pic. Way to go, Kodjo!

  16. With the pictures as the warp, and the words as the weft, you have created a perfect 'tapestry'.
