Little children gather round
Snuggle up without a sound
Look above at the sky so blue
Telling stories for me and you!
See the delicate silhouettes
and the branches
drawing lines across the sky
waiting for the notes to play them.
The pine trees tingle in anticipation
and the atmosphere intensifies!
Hush!
The scene is set
Let the story begin!
"Once upon a midnight blue..."
Wonderful and magical x
ReplyDeleteThis is fantastic, Sandra!
ReplyDeleteGreat story-telling with your lens. It's amazing how a different angle, and zooming in or out, can change the mood sometimes quite dramatically.
ReplyDeleteA lovely selection -- I am especially drawn to the third one. I found rhythm tricky to grasp when we studied it with Kim, but I think that is what you have here.
ganz tolle Fotos!
ReplyDeleteLG und eine gute Woche,*Manja*
Lovely moonphoto. Shine so brightly and nice on the blue heaven!

Beautiful silhouettes against the magical blue sky, Sandra. I love your first image, with the moon cradled in the branches of the tree, and the bird seems to be looking at it. Wonderful capture!

Sandra, you are a master at words! I love how you capture me from the very first line and how your images enhance the poetry! I love to visit here!
ReplyDeleteYou have created such a magical and anticipatory mood here Sandra with your choice of words, blue tones and silhouettes of tree branches and birds. I am mesmerized...don't forget to let me know when the story continues ;-)
ReplyDeleteBlue and black are one of my favourite combinations, Sandra. What an amazing set of images, especially the last one. Thanks for sharing them with your beautiful words.

In love with it all and want more more.. Sandra it is so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteI especially like the first image. These are one of my favorite subjects to shoot - the chaos of nature in trees.
ReplyDeleteI am lost for words! What an amazing thing to do: setting the scene...
ReplyDeleteI fell into my own story, didn't I? The sky and the trees were such an inspiration and the moon cast its magic and the bird wanted to be in the introduction - and I agreed!
