Okay, fellow word smiths… can you solve this Fall Puzzle?
The following Wordless Haiku uses images only to communicate a standard Haiku poem (5 syllables, 7 syllables, 5 syllables). Post your guesses in the Comments Section, and I’ll post the actual solution on Thursday.
Bonus: Can you guess which Scripture passage I used as my inspiration?
Good luck!
Solution to Puzzle (Posted on Thursday):
My dry, fallow heart
Needs a touch from You, O Lord
For desert harvest
Inspiration from Scripture:
“O God, You are my God; I shall seek You earnestly;
My soul thirsts for You, my flesh yearns for You,
In a dry and weary land where there is no water.”
Psalm 63:1
Thanks to everyone who participated in this week’s challenge! I loved reading each of your poems. Even though we were all using the same photo puzzle, every one of the offered solutions was inspirational and encouraging in a totally unique way. Have a blessed week, everyone!
My dry shriveled broken heart
needs to connect with you again to
breath in your majestic wisdom

For (valley) (harvest) … [I can’t come up with this line!]

As with a lot of things, it’s what you do with the idea that matters. You can give man the Word, but it’s what he does with it that makes the difference in their lives.
