Lovely poem, lovely photo.
Nice! I wrote about the water, too. But, my ship was not pretty like yours.
Looks a bit like the Flying Dutchman in limbo. Very fitting words.
Bequalmed and bewildered.
Nice.
Very nice words, very nice photo! Thank you! :D
probably one of my favorite versions of 'stranded'! beautiful words paired with photo
wow, this is beautiful. Frustrating stranding; so near yet never making land.
Really fabulous description of stranded!
Heading nowhere..my life feels that way right now..
collected clutters
Somehow, I think I'd rather enjoy that stranded for awhile.
Good haiga - that's stranded, for sure. Lovely photo and words!
Gorgeous photo for the perfect words!!
Very nice haiga!
awesome...
striking photograph

takes my breath away
I’m late to visit because ‘life’ got in the way, but I did publish two ‘week 6’ posts for One Single Impression: Stranded ... one on each of my blogs on Wednesday of last week and I hope you’ll find time to visit. They’re here: Heliocopter Rescue and Polar Bears
Hugs and blessings,
I haven't been here in a while -- wonderful work!!
