A blue Sahara is the sea whose depths are turquoise sands that gleam beneath the surface brilliantly. A blue Sahara is the sea. Sun touches it with clarity and leaves me drowning in its dream. A blue Sahara is the sea whose depths are turquoise sands that gleam. July 1, 2019 Poem based on picture #1 Contest: Poetically Me This Picture What Cha' See Poetry Contest Sponsor: James Edward Lee Sr.

The wordplay here is masterful. The imagery brings it all together and that must be why you were such a winner. Well done.

Your imagery brought me into the sea, and loved me in a dreamy way with this line: "A blue Sahara is the sea whose depths are turqoise sands that gleam" Loved it!

Beautiful imagery, Andrea, I’ve always liked the triolet form but not many write it. Best of luck in the contest. John

When you turn up your imagination station, and throw imagery into the mix, there is no poetry that can touch yours. Beautifully done, Andrea. You saw so much more than I did. I keep looking at the photo prompts but get nothing.
