Portals to Adventure




A picture lives by companionship. 
         - Mark Rothko

"There are things known and things unknown and between them, the doors." - Jim Morrison


Let time stand still for your writer's mind. Snag a snapshot that calls attention. Let ideas leap in. Become a companion with the frame and wonder where imagination will extend the image.

What happens beyond the gate?

Words in response to pictures help reflect and interpret the world and form a relationship with others.  Sentences search a world of paradox and mystery. Barriers invite curiosity as portals to adventure.



What natural entrances invite story or poem?  Do you see the man of the sea hiding?
Creative Write:  Take a walk and capture a collage of portals. Or, use the three above. Do a freewite to investigate their connections.  Do stories and poems arise from one side of the entrance to the other?
