Friday Flash 55 — in blueness

Welcome home, my love by teigert
Welcome home, my love by teigert



A Danish photographer’s lens captured
blues barely fluttering in blueness.
Such utter passion passing as demure -
the breathless waiting or lack thereof.
A window to a dear heart enraptured
by an old love, or perhaps a newness:
one much assured, the other one obscure.
Yet titled with universal calmness
the everlasting: Welcome home, my love.


 
Written for Friday Flash 55 - My post in exactly 55 words - for the G-Man.

    Funny how the painting totally makes you think of someone waiting for someone else to come home. Beautiful! "Utter passion passing as demure."

    the breathless waiting or lack thereof.

    What a gentle, softly spun poem.

    Beautiful work. You made me see the picture as so much more than I did at first.

    Yvonne~ Yes, I think I would have thought that even if the photographer had not titled it as he/she did. Quite a capture.

    Brian~ Loved your comment. Thank you, so much.

    izzy~ You see something here I do not, which is wonderful and magical!

    Margaret~ "...gentle..." is how I felt as I wrote it, so thank you for picking up on that.

    Linc~ Thanks so much.

    Mama Zen~ If that is the case, then I am most pleased.

    G-Man~ After I finished this "Indigo 55" I actually thought how much I appreciate you for hosting this weekly prompt. Many thanks, G.

    Am I supposed to see a picture? I don't, but the poem alone made me sigh.

    Rob-bear~ Thank you kindly.

    Fireblossom~ Hmmmm! Neither do I see a picture. I went to imagekind and the site is completely stripped down. I think they must be working on it, although I was able to sign into my account. Thank you for the alert. The image is the edge of a deep blue curtain shot from inside looking out at blueness. It is so beautiful.

    susan~ Thank you kindly. I do wish you could see the photographer's stunning image. I hope imagekind is just down, and that they haven't bumped me from the site for some reason. I wrote an email this evening to their customer care center..... :(

    Fireblossom and susan~ Thank you for returning to see the image. It seems that Imagekind had site problems...I am sure glad they are back (both the site and all the images from there that I've shared here!!).

    Such utter passion passing as demure -
    the breathless waiting or lack thereof.

    such a calm overtone to the underlying feelings of intensity.

BEGINNING IN 2014 I will reply to only occasional comments here, while appreciating every visit and all comments! My reason is to enable me to utilize that time to read and comment on your blog posts instead! If/when I get more organized I may later return to replying to comments here, but one of my New Years resolutions is to spend more time at your sites: reading, enjoying, learning! Thank you for understanding.

If your blog is associated with a Google+ account, I may not be able to visit you from your namelink. I do not wish to join Google+ and the site sometimes requires that I do so in order to read/comment on posts there.
