Last week was a super challenge and we are SUPER impressed with those that chose haiku even though it was super hard!
Thanks to @umirais, @owasco, @boxcarblue and @gentleshaid for their entries. What stunning glimpses into garden life. Please enjoy them!
Winds whisper of gold,
Beneath the sun-baked surface,
Tubers sweet and bold.
The sparrows pray for rice plants
The rice stalks continue to grow
To feed the family and survive
@umirais
zucchini proves
that invisibility
is a thing
@owasco
a blanket of snow
gently covers the beds
rest well my garden
@boxcarblue
weather charts flush red
paddocks painted pale yellow
bird baths half empty
@riverflows
Everyone's a winner this week - too darn good! And a little reminder that you can write haiku, poetry, draw, write a story, or just wax poetic about your garden for this challenge!
Let's Move On To This Week's Creative Challenge...
The trick is to write CREATIVELY and BE creative. For example:
- Showcase a creative response to a problem in your garden
- Write a story of any genre that features a garden somewhere in the story
- Write a creative non fiction post about a garden memory
- Draw, paint, sculpt, write a poem
- Write a comedy script
- Write from the perspective of an animal or a tool in your garden!
Rules
- Posts should contain only ONE image. This is a writing challenge not a photo challenge
- Publish in the community
- Use #creativegarden as your first tag
- Refer back to this challenge at the END of your post
- Reblog this if you can
- Comment on other people's posts in the Hive Garden community.
- Check the COUNTDOWN timer on Peakd.com - no late entries
This is a great opportunity for those in the northern hemisphere who might be shutting down their gardens for winter, and still want to write on #gardening topics.
