Today I am writing an exercise for
http://ermiliablog.wordpress.com/2012/09/30/picture-it-write-4/
The picture is this
: As I looked at this photo I wasn’t sure what I should really be writing, as it seemed that certain thoughts were running through my mind, but then the more I looked at it, I began to see different things. Isn’t it strange how our minds work?
We see something and our fist impression can be totally different from what we see if we take the time to let our brain expand and take in what really is the whole picture. Is she trying to portray herself in a sexual way? Is she doing a certain exercise? Maybe she is a dancer with a play that is being acted out. If you let your mind wander you can come up with many things.
She lay there her fair skin showing
And eyes are certainly bound to be roaming
The beauty we see with our first look
Reminds us of contents in a book
Or maybe a play that we just saw
When our eyes were big and our face in awe
Or maybe the grace on the exercise floor
That we noticed as soon as we opened the door
For what ever the scene that our memories do bring
This photo brings beauty to all who have seen.
Who I am 
It’s an interesting picture isn’t it? I found it searching for “yoga” so my imagination was a little hindered by my intent so I liked your comments at the top.

A very creative poem, Terry. And an intriguing photo, too. I’m not sure I would have been able to come up with anything to write about it.

hi Nanda!!!! so nice to meet you and I am thrilled you stopped by. I used to write down gibberish poetry as a youth and teen, but since this may, i have decided to let public eyes see it and hoped that they would enjoy it! so glad you let me know!!!!

Very different contribution, Terry. I like it! I really like the question, “Is she trying to portray herself in a sexual way?” Why does twisting the body into difficult positions imply sexual connotations? Good work.
