Deserted Mandala
The prompt at ‘One Single Impression’ this week is “Deserted”.
Alone. Deserted.
Then you came into my life
And brought love with you.
I admit I had to ponder a long time to get the right mandala to go go with this verse but I was quite pleased with both the haiku and the mandala. I hope you can see the deserted daisy in the middle and the one that reached out to it.
I have comment moderation on (only because I don’t know how to turn it off) so you will not see your comment until later.
Dancing Daisies! How fun!

I like how that one daisy, smaller, out-shines the others, being the ever important link here. Beautiful mandala and poem.

..these were dainty daisies
so merry in their bloom
that ran away the gloom

This is beautiful. I am so envious of your writing and artistic talent. The daisy reaching to another daisy is a wonderful image. Thank you!

So much in so few words. The rescuing element of love.

Sorry to be visiting so late. I’m glad I didn’t miss yours because it feels like the ‘other side’ of mine … here: Deserted
Hugs and blessings,
