Recipe for Sky

At last...Friday. I'm ready. You?

This week two wonderful events occurred that led to this post.

First, my friend Molly posted a photograph on facebook that I fell head over heels for -- and gave me permission to use it as a writing prompt.

Then, I discovered Jama's Alphabet Soup  is hosting this week's Poetry Friday round-up. I simply love the creative combination of foodie, photographer, writer and blogger Jama is. I look forward to each new post from her. 

All I can possibly do in response is to share a recipe poem.
Right? 


Hogan, Molly. “Photograph.” Facebook Post, 13 Oct. 2019, www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10219530462877483&set=pcb.10219530476637827&type=3&theater.

  1. Oh, this is lovely! You maintain the recipe theme so clearly and cleverly! I especially appreciate "Slice an autumn sunrise lengthwise. / Strain juice with cloud-cloth / into chilled metal bowl. / Whisk in reflections / of winter-bare trees." A perfect fit for the photo.

  2. LOVE this poem so much, Linda!! So clever and whimsical, and such lovely images. As JoAnn said, you developed the recipe format so brilliantly. :) "Top with whipped sunrise" *swoon*

  10. Linda, you are so clever to take two separate ingredients--photo and recipe--and combine them to create a masterpiece. You've woven in so many wonderful images that I can't pick a favorite. Well done!

  11. How clever you are to come up with a recipe poem to match Molly's photo! I especially love "Whisk in reflections/of winter-bare trees." Well done, Linda!
