As both a photographer and a writer I do a lot of different things. Yes, most of my photography is of the same basic subject, flowers. Be they cultivated or wild weeds, I take photos of them and then post them for people to enjoy over on my photo blog, Window to my mind.
But as a writer most of what I do is a bit different. Writing short stories, novellas and novels doesn't always blend well with the photos I take, but now my poetry, that is a different story. Over the past few months I have been playing with some of the shorter forms of poetry. Just to see if I can pull them off. Not sure how good they are but they do work well placed into some of the photographs I have taken.
In today's blog here I thought I would post up the cinquain poems i have written placed over some of my photos...for your viewing pleasure of course. Hope you like. Over the next year I plan on doing more before I collect them all into one volume and put them out.
These are what is known as a didactic cinquain. Basically you do it as follows, line a one word, line b two words, line c three, line d four and line five one. Simple but not as easy as it looks. Using photoshop I simply edited the photo that I wished to use to the correct size and then typed in the poem.

trying to work through the pain
Okay I'm not sick like a lot of people in pain. I just have a bad sinus headache. Any of you who have had them understand. You try to concentrate and all you can do is wince. I got some writing done, blogged a bit and answered questions on discussion groups. Made some tarts for dinner tonight and started up the sweet potatoes for my killer SP rolls.
Now to come up with title ideas for the erotica stories. Yes I will publish the 20 odd I don't think are too porn. They need some editing to make them better and then I think if I group them into five books of 4 stories each they can be sold. Coming up with titles. My downfall. Now I like Pleasant moments, Naughty Interludes, Nasty intimacies and what ever I can figure out.
Heck I could do a book or a dozen of my poems. Heart's desires, Soul's Torment, etc etc. They might sell, they might not. Okay my mind is coming up with title ideas all of a sudden. The title of one of my blog pages, Windows of my mind...but who knows. Flowers of a city field? Who knows.
