Magpie #92


Yin-Yang curves around
a summersault smooch

Our crazy, cartwheeling, kaleidoscope love
spins me to paradise

Baby, I’m head-over-heels for you!


This delightful photo prompt is provided by Tess Kincade at Magpie Tales.  Click on the title to go there.  This is also linked to Imaginary Garden with Real Toads.  Their theme is gratitude though they also allow other topics too.  While this isn't exactly about gratitude, who isn't grateful for love like this?

    I had seen some other poems about this, but I really like your reference of yin-yang, as soon as I read it my eyes lit up... so good. I wonder who the photographer is.

    Clever to spot the "head over heels" Or is it "Heels over head"? Bet you'll be the only one!
