Happy Friday! I have a petite pen to help you set sail this weekend. 30 words or less to a stunning painting by Vincente Romero (his work is a goldmine of inspiration). If you feel compelled to join me please be sure to pingback this post so everyone can enjoy your brevity. So much beauty!

Goodbye, sailboat lover!
Distance is no illusion.
Held me, but I dreamt another.
Soon he will blend with waves,
a forgotten crest, at best,
that I clean
from my covers.

Thank you, Tom. I promise, no more sheets; and must admit it feels like I’ve been doing a lot of laundry both emotionally and in real life.

The sea
always reminds me
of the tranquility in the breeze
Lost in times waft
I send my love through the seas
to thee
Super fun, as always, K. Loved your poem. Happy weekend, my dear friend. 💜

Beautifully written, K! I saw this lovely painting and thought “aha! This will be easy!” But I didn’t find it so. At least 12 rewrites of these 30 words. LOL
