Every Wednesday I’ll post FOUR photos (if you want to get a head start you’ll find them marked in that week’s Sunday Picture Post and Tuesday Treats). Lots of choice!
And here they are:
You respond with something CREATIVE. Perhaps an answering photo, or micro-fiction, or a poem, or just a caption
As before, there are only two criteria:
!!!!! Your creative offering is indeed yours !!!!!
!!!!! Your writing is kept to 150 words or less !!!!!
If you post a link in the comments section of this post I’ll be able to find it.
Here’s wishing you inspirational explosions. And FUN




I am getting a particularly dark vibe for this week! hehehehe

It is often forgotten that eastern England was settled by the Vikings. And to these lands their gods came: Odin, Thor, Loki, but most important of all, the twins Freyr and Freyja. Freyr was the god of fertility: he gave life to the soil, planting and tending the crops and livestock. And when autumn came, Freyja would come in her cat-drawn chariot to summon Freyr to their palace of Folkvangr, whereupon Freyr would stick his pitchfork in the ground and the plants would fade until his return in the spring. And that is where the expression, “put a fork in it” came from.
Times change. Freyr still uses his pitchfork, but Freyja has traded in her chariot for an airplane. It’s less conspicuous.

Oh wow! I thank you, Brian, for my weekly dose of laughter. And you know I much admire our Scandinavian god-folk!

I know. Incredible. But that’s the native hawthorn. Knocks spots off the imported maples!

It’s a gorgeous tree, with the beautiful blossom in May and then the leaves and berries in September.
I couldn’t resist writing a poem inspired by this photo.
