Your challenge or writing prompt is this:
- what emotions or feelings get evoked or aroused in you when you look at this photograph taken by Lynn
Remember, the goal isn’t necessarily to tell me and others exactly what the picture is.
The creative goal for all of us is “what does the picture evoke in you; what emotion; feeling; memory or whatever it may be – what does it arouse in you and to share it that with others.“

Our Week 31 prompt was taken through our front window last winter. It is a male Northern Red Cardinal.
➰➰➰➰➰➰➰
A flash of red in the winter white
It livens up the desolate landscape
Just the presence of this majestic bird
Fills my heart with the hope of good things to come
I look into its eyes and feel the message it’s conveying
Appreciate the beauty of nature around you but
Never try to possess it or cage it for your pleasure
Let me fly free as you are born to roam free
➰➰➰➰➰➰➰

Cardinals always make me think of my grandmother. This one is a deep, dark red, which I love.

Gorgeous image, it’s really beautiful. And beautiful words as well, Sadje. I don’t like to see birds caged up, or animals either, for that matter.

Thank you Carol. Yes a beautiful photo. Birds and animals in cages are so sad and it’s cruel to do so. ❤️🙏

I remember a Christmas ornament I got for my Grandmother just before she died. It was a large bell painted to look like a cardinal… it is now a treasured ornament. Nice post Sadje!
