#WRITEPHOTO – THE RETREAT

The Retreat – Image by KL Caley
For visually challenged writers, the image shows a beautifully lit retreat with large windows overlooking a little pond and a decking area. Twinkling lights surround the pond.

Flutter wings of angel

Flutter waves

Waves of gratitude

Waves of emotion

Emotion no need for words

Emotion that haunts

Haunts of the past

Haunts of memories

Memories and stories to tell

Memories when we were young

Young and innocent

Young and full of fun

Fun with the staff

Fun lifting our spirits

Spirits everywhere

Spirits as we walk

Walk to the pond

Walk and the water’s clear

Clear and sparkling

Clear as in crystal clear

Clear the mind

Clear our soul

Soul to retreat

Soul taking away the pain

Pain of the past

Pain when you left

Left me alone

Left me thinking

Thinking about us

Thinking of what went wrong

Wrong but without regrets

Wrong but it’s for the best

Best to move on

Best to learn the lesson

Lesson everyday

Lesson to keep us strong

Strong to brave it all

Strong will

Will I see you again?

Will winds change direction?

Direction to take

Direction to follow

Follow the signs

Follow your heart

Heart and soul

Heart so in love

Love me tender

Love me true

True and loyal

True friend

Friend

Loyal*
