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




Here’s my take on the photo prompt 💜

Last night before we ship out again. Some of the crew call this home. They take me on a tour of this crumbling tenebrious port. It doesn’t have proper streets, only rows and alleys, walks and closes. Many of the buildings are crumbling ruins. And the smell of unclean water is pervasive, extending even into the pubs. Only the strongest of scotches, which can also be used as paint stripper, blocks the smell. I drink and I drink, until I see the ghosts. For where else would be more likely a place to see them? They follow me, whispering to me, until I leave behind a half-full bottle to appease them. God, I was never so happy to get aboard ship again.

I think you didn’t need my photos, Brian. But also I think I didn’t show you all these places. Your story pulls it together very well, the deep dark history of the port

You only had so much time, and E.J. had the wrong footwear, if I recall.
