A Mere Shadow

A 15 word picture prompt poem I done awhile back.

 

 

Nothing now but bones--

I am sitting here waiting-

A mere shadow of what was

Fascinating picture puzzle.
Fantastic Haiku...in simplicity lies your riddle.
You must've have really thought before writing this.
Its a lot of work to write 3 lines no matter how unconnected they may seem to be.

I agree I feel like this year has made me nothing but a shadow of my former self

This describes what I am feeling right now! Well done. Keep on penning.

Exquisitely divine as these morsels of truth bud on my tongue as I read them aloud.

I like the picture, and the poem. The poem describes the picture to a T, and even though it's short, it says a lot in only 3 lines. Good job :) And cool picture.
