I've always been fascinated by abandoned structures that nature is taking back for Her own. They leave me wondering who passed that way, what their life was all about, and where they went. So, when I saw Marie's challenge, I knew what I wanted to do. I've added an original poem. Thank you for looking!
I'm glad that I had made you laugh Bev ! That was my intention although I didn't know that you had an outhouse :-)

About your entry .
We share the fascination of abandoned structures (or places)
I find it always intriguing and ask myself WHO or WHAT ever lived there.
And your poëm fit PERFECT to this picture Bev. My deepest respect for this form of art !!
Makes you want to go through the door, Bev, what a magical feel you have created, fantastic art!

Very fascinating! So glad we get to go up the steps rather than down....excellent image..beautiful as always, Bev.
ReplyDeleteMysterious and fascinating! You've conveyed those feelings so well with this piece, Bev. Love the subtle filters and brushes. Beautiful! Hugs, Terri xoxo
ReplyDeleteHow magical Bev! You have captured the atmosphere of secrets lost and mysteries to be found. I would love to come across a place like this and explore it. Your digital work is fantastic too! Thank you sweetie! Love, Jamie
ReplyDeletebeautiful! love the poem!
ReplyDeleteThis is beautiful Bev! I am also fascinated by old worn out building...we have a few in this old area of Florida.Your poem is beautiful. You could share those anytime!
ReplyDeleteI love abandoned structures too, especially things made of stone. Beautiful entry...and I didn't know you were a poet too! Very nice! ~Lori
ReplyDeleteWow bev ,what a magical doorway, truly a secret garden and I Love the poem its so perfect together!
ReplyDeleteHoly moly woman! You are as good a writer as you are an incredible artist and visionary. I fully expected to see some old famous poet's name below the poem, which I read first, and the name didn't click. Then I read your post (I didn't know your last name). I am floored! But that sounds bad, like I didn't think you had it in you to write such a beautiful thing. I don't mean that, I am not surprised but very very impressed. So, the whole piece is brilliant and gorgeous beyond words I have the ability to write!

ReplyDeleteOh Bev,you have made your image so dreamy and mysterious it makes me want to venture up those steps, and have a quiet moment there. The poem, as always, is emotive and beautiful and special. Thank you so much.
ReplyDeleteStunning, all the different layers really give it a mysterious feel. I so know what you mean about these abandoned places that nature is claiming back. If only we could look through the veils of time...
ReplyDeleteThe poem is great and really suits the piece.
Oh, fabulous. The picture and poem match each other perfectly - well done you!

I share your wonder about the past life of old structures. Your piece is beautiful and the poetry speaks perfectly for the art. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI like your poem every bit as much as your digital art... love all those layers! I have a great love of ruins, which isn't quite the same, is it? I think I'd like to be an archaeologist in the next life... always providing there is one!!
ReplyDeleteoh wonderwoman what a beautiful poem to go with your wonderful creation . it's so inviting and haunted and makes you wonder , if those steps could speak
ReplyDeleteBoth the image and poem are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteOh, Bev, the image is fantastic, and so is the poem!! I'm speechless.
ReplyDeleteBev:
ReplyDeleteYour art and poem are wonderful, a perfect complement one to the other.
:)
Bev, I had to do a double take on the poem! At first I wondered how you managed to find a poem that conveyed exactly what you were trying to say! Duh! It's really wonderful and has such universal appeal! The abandoned steps and doorway leave one feeling nostalgic. Love the way you have nature beautifully and gracefully taking over the scene!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful poetry Bev & what you have created is fabulous. I want to step into the screen & climb those steps to see where they go ...
ReplyDeleteThis lovely Bev,great poem too!!!
ReplyDeleteAwesome piece of many layers blended for a magical feel!
