Love this. I feel that my mind mired in sand.

From now on, I will think of my brought home treasure as being stranded! Lovely presentation.

This is really a great ku! I love 'memory driftwood'.

I made a walking stick out of a piece of driftwood I found on the beach after the Blizzard of '78', here on the east coast! It has indeed seen better days!

I find this sad. Poignant. Bittersweet. And so very lovely.

Beautiful. I felt as though the better days did not come, thus the grit in your mind. Very nice.

I really like where you took this prompt. Unique images in words and photo. It seems stranded and sea images go hand in hand for I went with that this week too.

I am a big fan of that last line as well. Wonderful poem put forth beautifully.

'memory driftwood',a
mysterious phrase,has to perhaps drift away first before being recollected..

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,
