waiting
forbidden fruit
in the garden we touch
embracing in a ring of time
cards fall

I love the notion of circular time and travelers in the game of life......
ReplyDeleteGood Morning my friend,
Deletetravelers in circles of time..discovering new aspects of life..
Ah yes! But would we have it any other way!
ReplyDeleteProbably not..thanks for visiting..
DeleteGot to be careful of that "forbidden fruit." Nice take on the prompt!
ReplyDeleteSometimes one has to take chances..but, perhaps use care..
DeleteI like this very much,
ReplyDeleteThank you Cait..
DeleteAnd the cards fall as they may!
ReplyDeleteAh, that is very true as life is often a game of chance..
DeleteCircles within the circles created within the ring of time.
ReplyDeleteThank you for these thoughtful prose.

The never ending circles ..circles within circles...
DeleteThank you for visiting..
"Cards fall", indeed! I enjoyed this.
ReplyDeleteThanks for coming by. Have a bang up fourth.
Gail you are welcome I just adore that rock pond of yours..so peaceful..
DeleteLike that last line on the second one.
ReplyDeleteLet the cards fall I say...
DeleteThe cards are dealt and finally the jackpot is reached, the touch of two and the correct cards are now in view.
ReplyDeleteThe cards are dealt waiting for fate..
DeleteThe cards certainly fell in the garden...
ReplyDeletedesire - sweet temptation..
DeleteOhh, delicious! We have a brand of apples over here called 'Golden Delicious' - this reminds me of the,!
ReplyDeleteOh, I know of those Golden Delicious apples..nice and crisp ..
DeleteBeautiful triptych, Trudessa! So much succinctly said. I'm in awe, and if truthful, I have to admit I'm a little intimidated by the power of poets! Happy 4th!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the nice message and Happy 4th wishes..I hope you have a nice weekend.
Deletewow this may be the furthest i have been down you list...ha...
ReplyDeletethe second one really gets the story going for me...and adds mystery as well...a bit of danger...the cards falling is a great last line...
Haha that is true you are usually at least 1st or 2nd to comment but, that is ok ..it is always good to see you here. Enjoy your weekend.
Deletegood to reach the traveler and travel not alone...~ the second one - ah, we affect others, whatever we're doing - waiting or acting, we always choose...~ nice verses
ReplyDeletethank you humbird..a fun challenge..
