A Montage Moment

Black-headed flowers wear long drooping ruffled petal skirts. A black crane, statuesque, stands in the tall green grass amongst them. The tallest flower - distinctively blonde - has arms to touch the crane!

This I think goes so well with the picture for the challenge, Andrea-- really like how your third line is such a contrast to the first two lines, way to go :) hugs to you :) & I hope this places high :)

I see this very clearly, very vivid:) excellent write, Andrea. Thanks for your comments on "A Trip Out of This World"... I wouldn't have tried a leap in my poem- not coordinated enough for such a venture...I'd miss and end up lost in space:)
