Prompt:
streets i have known...
Silent sentinelBeckoning showing the way
Familiar compass
Over trodden soil
Marked by tree, brook, rock
Steps quicken to find
New places or former
Eyes, fingers, nose recognize
Markers in time
Look for your streets here

Rel, I love what you did here. Amazing how you can say so much with so little. Your words are carefully chosen.
Morning Rel. The poem adds to the photos and gives life to streets that are familiar yet unknown.
See! You CAN write poetry! Well done, mon cher ami.
Less is more. I liked this a lot. Did you really ever think you couldn't write ? Believe ! BB
Did you write this? It's sparse and awesome.

Wonderful stuff, rel. :)
As usual your words say so much Rel...I love your style and how you get straight to the point without being long winded! lol I also love the pictures you always find to go with your haiku!
Mysterious and alluring, and so much said with so little. Great achievement.
Hi Rel
Just a quick pop in to say hello. Love your poetry and pictures.
Hope all is well with you and I'll catch up fully later on.
Hugs

Fantastic rel...:)
I second all of these emotions. The pictures make it a map of poetry - just fabulous.
late but better than not at all-i don't know what to say that won't sound like a parrot. The pictures and such few words worked beautifully-keep it up.
It's funny that you posted the pic of that stamp. I bought my Christmas cards in March when we were at Disney*W*rld. They are tinkerbell with these exact same snowflakes on them. I picked up stamps last week and guess which ones they gave me??
Worked out perfectly.
I hope all is well.
