Purple sky at night, what a delight!
I was at my husband’s shoulder as he took this photo.
Statically capturing in print, what in life was truly captivating.
He was focussed on the palace beyond. I was enthralled with the foreground radiance.
The twilight colours, the lights of the fountain, the pink shades of the flower,
all flowing so beautifully.
Embodied in that jewel, connected to the universe, sounds, scent, ambience.
I breathed deeply and it seemed I could smell the sweet perfume, although it was but a sculpture.
I reached to touch those soft, stone, petals.
Friday fictioneers is a weekly challenge set by Rochelle Wisoff Fields to write a 100-word story in response to a photo prompt. Here for more stories.
