Winter Image Challenge



The image is of a snow covered tire, the little red berries surrounding it. Take this image and think about it a moment. Write me something, a poem, a story, a stream of consciousness ramble. Describe it if you like. Or go somewhere else completely. . .

Pretend you've fallen and this is what you see. Is the tire part of a yard? In the middle of the woods? The remains of a winter evening car crash?

Are the specks of red berries or fairy eggs? Are they mystic berries or poison for the unfaithful spouse?

Or is this image about the snow for you? Is your story about the cold? Is your poem about the winter?

This the Guild's first image challenge. Others should feel free to post images and challenge their fellow writers. Or maybe tell us about an image that you wrote about. This is your mission: visual inspiration. Tell us about it. You don't have to post your work or the result of the inspiration. Just the "about".

Have fun, and happy holidays!

A touch of life from among the dead cold winter
A splash of blood from a body made of stone
A piece of hope for spring’s return
A morsel of food for a winter starved creature
A poisonous taste of nature’s cruel intentions
The spoils of a plant dead now for a season
Maybe its hope, hope for the future
A tiny ray of light in the darkness of December



just a stream of conciousness i guess lol maybe i can turn it into poem
