Thanks #promptcombo #poets for comments, etc this week and @rfsmith.bsky.social for the prompt. Have a lovely weekend all, with R&R in the spring days. Yesterday I saw my first #swallow of the year 😊

#PromptCombo Here is one of my #Visions, for Tuesday @rfsmith.bsky.social

My offering for #PromptCombo #Visions Great prompt. Thank you @rfsmith.bsky.social

None of these letters will form anything prolific or profound, none of it will ever amaze or astound, my visions a muted gray, the horizon a blur of nouns and verbs, I’m in stalemate and just staring at the board #vss365 #promptcombo @rfsmith.bsky.social #poetry

In these parts, there is less distance between this world and others. Many thanks @rfsmith.bsky.social for the excuse to write about it for #PromptCombo #Visions, inspired also by this morning's encounter with one of our resident woodcock! #poems #poetry #poetrycommunity #scottishpoetry

I hope this one qualifies for #PromptCombo themed #visions #poetry in #alt-text Thank you for hosting @rfsmith.bsky.social

Many thanks @rfsmith.bsky.social for your brilliant #PromptCombo #Visions. I posted this a year or so ago in response to #PoemsAbout but Chagall the great visionary painter seemed to fit today's prompt. Looking forward to reading and responding to other #BlueSkyPoets later.

I lucid dream nearly every night. It just happens. And I almost always dream of the same place. #PromptCombo #visions #poetry #writing @rfsmith.bsky.social

When I was a teenager, I took LSD and lost and found my mind. A bad trip, destination salvation, and years of flashbacks. Obsessed with Yeats, visions and gyres, and experimenting with the Golden Dawn, I wrote this poem. @rfsmith.bsky.social #PromptCombo #Visions

@dragonslayerma.bsky.social @victoriaspires.bsky.social @thewombwellrainbow.bsky.social @hool415.bsky.social Dear All, I have posted this week’s #PromptCombo and, as I am travelling and don’t have all me tools, please share it as widely as possible. Thank you Ronnie

I’m on this weeks #PromptCombo and the theme is #Visions . Mine is short but you can send me anything you feel, at any length. Love to all. and the sea slowly mesmerised to the shore through the rays of the evening sun; pulsing as if it were the membrane of Solaris. ©️April 2026

ICE has kept a disabled double amputee prisoner for over 14 months. Rodney Taylor has been denied access to his prosthetic legs. Forced to crawl across dirty floors to access food. Placed in solitary. Denied medical accommodations. They’re killing him & he needs the community to make noise!

Coma Evening, a full flight but silent. Earbuds and tablets, the tools of isolation. A tired sun sets behind the hills beneath, cabin shadows are extinguished. Where will the bombs fall tonight? ©️April 2026

This wind. This endless Occitaine wind that empties the mind and parches the soil.

#allowed #promptcombo @thewombwellrainbow.bsky.social I thought this poem deserved a bit more context as it may seem like a quick warm-up when in reality it's crystallised MONTHS of mental health disquiet. Thank you for allowed as the prompt. no-gloss-no-veneer-no-filter.ghost.io/in-complete-...
