This week's challenge was to write a poem to accompany this image.
I wrote the Fib below.
The picture seemed to inspire lots of folks this week, including quite a few newcomers, so welcome! I'm always amazed at how different the results can be, even when we're all focused on the same thing.

Cath at little cool shallows hasn't written a poem in a while, but is in big time withBlaspheme. She writes, "Warning: this poem does mention Jesus, Sex, Blaspheme, and a Vagina. If this sentence was offensive, do not read on." I read it, and so should you.
It's not too late to play. Does this image inspire you? If so, leave me a comment about your poem and I'll link it here. Feel free to post this image with your poem.
