Glory Mandala
The prompt at One Single Impression this week is “Glory”. It seems I just naturally think of the American Flag when I hear the word ‘glory’.
First I wrote the haiku then did the mandala.
Glory of the flag
It represents our freedom
Stars and stripes wave on!
Last week I read a new type of poem (to me). Thanks to MEEAUGRAPHIE for writing “Increasing Syllables 1-7″ so I had to try one.
Glory
of our
freedom flag
waving in the breeze
telling the world
we are a free people
Wave on, oh red, white and blue.
Visit “One Single Impression” to read some wonderful haikus and other poetry.
Love your mandala… cool take on the glory theme.
