Look around. Let Nature nurture your Soul. I record images I sense and share them here. |
NURTURE your NATURE ![]() Nature can nurture our writing, can nurture our soul. What is the language of Nature? And how do we learn it? We look at the natural wonders around us and do not see them, hear, taste nor smell them. They do not touch us anymore than we dare touch them. And then we wonder why we feel so dead. To breathe in and live like a child again opens the Land of Wonderment. It's still there after all these years. |
Thunder Water roars and lightning zaps as you hold the strawberry-rhubarb pie before it falls into your lap. You laugh like you did when your first child pooped... no diaper. Now your smile wipes away the wrinkles as waterfalls run down my cheeks. I wipe away the past and grab a fork. We sit side-by-side, consuming the sticky fragrant mess, rubbing elbows as we wait for thunder, giving thanks for every morsel left. © Kåre Enga [177.126] (8.juli.2020) 19 lines Prompt: "Thunder" - you must use all 5 senses and do not use the words see, touch, taste, hear, smell or feel.

I listen to the willow, the wind caressing it's hair, the flow of water around it's roots, the messages along the thin threads of the fungi. Everything has its own voice. I've tried listening to rocks. They have much to say but they say it slowly. One time I was so intent I got pelted by a hailstorm. Never heard the end of how the Matterhorn rose so high! The river stones are more chatty. What wisdom can I impart. So many are so attached to what their eyes see that they seek no further. Learn how to touch and the world will touch back. Learn how to smell and fragrances will unlock memories you thought you forgot, and aromas themselves will teach you much. Learn to eat slow and carefully. Savor each flavor. There's more to know than sugar and salt. And listen. Every being has a voice. Where there is movement there is life. Even mountains move. Listen to air and water and fire. And when you use your eyes see what others cannot, then look further until you can see what is missing. There's no end of inspiration. When you have done all that listen to the human heart. For many that's where you should start. Until we meet again, Knyflok What do you do when you are out of inspiration or ideas? For:
