For Magpie Tales (picture – Ponytail), Succinctly Yours(picture: Elvis store/word:blatant), and SundayWhirl(Heart connect yield close phrase current anchor fertile range beam shift layers)
You are my anchor in the darkest night;
You are the beam that holds me upright
Even in shifting layers of struggles.
A range of problems that my mind juggles
Am close to yielding an answer
As my heart connects to you a little faster
Looking at you, as your hair falls
Ever so softly on my face, my mind recalls
This phrase – you are my ray of sunshine
Yes, I do blatantly say – you are mine!
You are the beam that holds me upright
Even in shifting layers of struggles.
A range of problems that my mind juggles
Am close to yielding an answer
As my heart connects to you a little faster
Looking at you, as your hair falls
Ever so softly on my face, my mind recalls
This phrase – you are my ray of sunshine
Yes, I do blatantly say – you are mine!

For Sunday Scribblings (Luscious) and Haiku Heights (Health)
Lovely luscious lips
Earnest effervescent eyes
Happy healthy heart
Earnest effervescent eyes
Happy healthy heart
These are both stunning!
The flow in the first one is simply gorgeous and matches the image perfectly!
The haiku makes me smile its so romantic =)
Loved both. The first was particularly lovely.
Sharp and cunning; nicely done.
"Even in shifting layers of struggles" – it's good to have a sturdy anchor during these times!
