The exercise:
Your prompt today: the photograph.
I think I'll be taking a few while we're away. I will try not to drown you in them upon our return.
Note: I'm away on my honeymoon so this is a scheduled post. Yes, still. I'll be back eventually.
Mine:
A moment,
Captured in black and white,
In Paris,
Their hats tipped to the right.
Ties undone
And collars loosened up,
Each holding
Their spirits in a cup.
Two soldiers
Preparing to ship out,
Both knowing
Fear and terror and doubt,
But neither
Daring to let it show,
Just grasping
Joy before the blood flows.
