W3 Prompt #158: Wea’ve Written Weekly poet of the week, Suzanne, prompts us to write a Waltz Wave on the theme of strength and vulnerability.
dVerse Poetics, hosted by Melissa. Melissa challenges us to write an ekphrastic poem on one of a selection of Georgia O’Keeffe paintings, while incorporating “a handful” of words proffered by Melissa.
Strength will grow where there is support, and if the strong support the vulnerable (in any circumstance), then hopefully harmony will grow – a new wave…. powerful waltz

Jenn, there’s a real strength in how you distilled the essence of O’Keeffe’s figures into this spare, rising rhythm.
