Bastet’s Shadorma Photo Prompt #8: Jacob’s Ladder

Jacob's ladder, Life, steps

Done for Mindmiserymenagerie, BastetsShardorma photo prompt. We are to look at these stairs and try to imagine where they’d take us. Or we could choose our own photos or art work and write about it!

stairs

(3-5-3-3-7-5)

 I’m on a

pathway to nowhere

this distance

I call life

at once tortuous and joyful

but will I get there?

(1-2-3-4-1)

perhaps

Jacob’s ladder

might propel me

to reach there yet

sublime

Jacob's ladder, Religion

In commemoration of the National Poetry Month this April, Haiku Heights welcomes all to a month-long Haiku writing journey. This journey will take Haiku lovers through the alphabet with the first stop being the letter A! So, we’re climbing up the ladder of 30 days, with an Ascent! Start the fun climb with us, everyone! 🙂

Ascent

A long flight of steps
Leads to Heaven’s glorious dreams
On Jacob’s ladder
