Collab #5 Forest FLoor

Forest Floor by Elizabeth Crawford

Deep in the soil
tender roots transform
nutrients
into life.
A miracle flourishes
in the forest canopy.

Jinksy  6/7/11

Collab #5:  This time we reversed the order. Jinksy wrote the words and I created the image to go with them. This one has so many layers to it, but I certainly liked the outcome. You can click on the image to get a larger version and a better feel for the layers. Please feel free to respond to the image, either here in the comments section, or on your own blog. Leave a URL so we can come and see what you have created.

Jinksy does a turn about on Thursdays, using one of her images and my words. Her site may be found here:  http://pens-poems.blogspot.com/  Hope you enjoy.

    Once again I love the picture and jinksy’s words wonderfully capture the marvel of what goes on in these beautiful and often unseen places.

    I have joined in again.:-) I captured my first response on looking at the picture and didn’t read what jinksy had written until after (I didn’t want to be influenced!) 😉

      Thanks so much for joining in Susannah. Love what you did. I have written about being a sister to trees and you capture that feeling well. Love it,

      Elizabeth

    Love the image, Elizabeth. Jinksy, what a perfect response to it. I will get to this sometime this week.
    Thanks for being here.
    btw, I am over at wordpress now. I will be posting most of my work there. Still trying to get the feel of it.

      Sorry Pamela, I can’t get on your new site. Wish I understood why you are having so many problems. I love WordPress and really don’t understand what’s going on,

      Elizabeth

        Elizabeth, I just clicked on the link and it took me there. The problem I had was that I changed the title of the blog, but never changed the link to match. So, the link to get to my blog is,

        wordsandthoughtspjs.wordpress.com

        I am so technically challenged sometimes 🙂

        Pamela
