April -- NaPoWriMo 2023 Day 22 -- Doctor's Advice -- and a Poem for Sunday Muse
 |
| “Pointlessness” by Fine Art Photographyer Lara Zankoul |
Her Mistake
She doesn't understand her doctor's cure
She takes his advice literally
He's told her the fix for her jitters
That would be for her to get her broom
She's to take her broom and bucket
Go to the edge of the sea
Sweep the sand, dump it into the sea
When she has finished find another
She took his advice literally
Didn't understand his metaphors

When my brother was a kid he once tried to put out a fire he sarted by coming into the house to get a drink of water, over and over.
A profound message in your lines here Jim. You dove deep into the image and came through with something lovely. Have a great week my friend!
Interesting where you went and there is a lesson here as well ~ Truedessa
His metaphorical remedy left her bemused it seems. Nice one!
I took the same photo. Interesting how we both went a different way. I like yours!
From that pesky Helen : Metaphors are my undoing, apparently hers too.
Nice one Jim
Happy Sunday
Much💖love
