    You always amaze me. I have a question. Do you choose the photo first or after you right the words?

      In general – I choose the photo or image after I write … the only time I’ve used an image first is if it is part of a prompt — like this specific one. We were given the photo and requested to go from there. Thank you for your generous feedback, and stopping by for a visit.

    Becca – well crafted – erotic and wild in a great haiku – is there another word that says as much as Gypsy?
