Magic ~ Pic and a Word Challenge #311

Magic is a Child, Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, India

Magic is a child
This unknown girl
Who casts upon
My weary soul

Unfettered glee
The guileless love
Which is delight
In briefest moment

Such sweet respite
From adult cares
Her master class
In living well

Magic is a child

Pic and a Word Challenge

A bit late this week.  A bit out of sorts, so something to help reassemble the sorts…

Last week we plucked Petals. This week, we’re finding the Magic again.

The Pic and a Word Challenge is (usually) a weekly creativity prompt offered (also, usually) Mondays.

With each challenge I provide a photograph of mine along with a single word. The challenge? Use the pic and/or word as  inspiration to create something — a photograph, a painting, video, prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction, longread or just a few words. You are welcome to use these two elements (photograph and word) literally, thematically or metaphorically. If you create both images and words, all the better.

To participate:

  • Use any title you like
  • Your response can be words and/or images
  • You may use my image to illustrate your post, or any images you have created
  • Mention that you are responding to the Pic and a Word Challenge
  • Add a link to this post in your response

To help us find your response — whether on WordPress, Instagram, Flicker, Tumblr, etc. — you can also:

  • Add a comment on this post to announce your response
  • Apply the tag/hashtag “Pic and a Word Challenge” or “#picandawordchallenge” to your post

Each week, I’ll list the previous challenge’s responses at the end of the new challenge. I may also share some on my social media: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest, Tumblr, etc.

The previous challenge was: Petals

Sunset Glitterbomb, Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Challenge #310 ~ Petals

The word for last week’s Pic and a Word Challenge #310  was Petals, along with this sunset photograph of the Vancouver skyline in British Columbia, Canada.

Two bloggers plucked the daisy’s Petals this week; Thanks!

Happy Creating! ❤
