prompt word: spine

Write something that will move us! Inspired by the photo above. Post your poem in the comments and comment on others!
Let’s keep it about the words

- 10 words MAX per line
- 3 Lines
- No Titles
- DO NOT include the prompt word
when
A new prompt will appear on the blog each Thursday at 12 am EDT.
where
Post your entries in the comment box of the current week's prompt post.
why
We are all about fostering healthy habits of creativity and connections.
What can you say, convey, express in only three lines? Can you paint a visual picture with only words? Tell an entire story that begs to be read? #TLT - June 2
Use your imagination. Poetry, Haiku, SenryÅ«, Free Verse, Prose, Flash all are welcome. (Please no graphic use of excessive profanity or overtly disturbing mental images. Let’s use common sense.)
One word per line, fine. Ten words per line (max), fine. As long as it fits in the comment box in three-line format, it counts. Simple, right?
Read other entries and comment. This will be a positive forum for feedback!
love and ink,
grace black

your hand in mine
wrinkled, spiny fingers
touch that still hold and bind
she lays her book down
splayed open, like her heart,
so that every crack shows
the deep-rooted trunk
depended on by everyone –
the tree of the world withers
An edit. If Grace could delete the previous one?
My stacked biscuit bones
My knobbled hickory stick
Treading where wings were
@miskmask
Lovely! Evocative image! (The wings are still there!) 🙂
Thank you so much.
This is so great, the biscuit bones…the knobbles…the wings that once were…
Thank you! A photo of my lovely knobbly walking stick is on my blog (if you’re interested) at https://misky.uk/2022/06/02/2-june-tlt-3-line-thursday/

the blushing curve
of the horizon

Hahaha thanks Ewan!
A poetic vision.

Thank you 🙂
something holds us together, lifts our heads up high
creaking now and aching with age
with its story of a good life lived
Beautiful use of the prompt word Ewan.
Thanks, Firdaus. I am so happy to have #TLT back again.
