I've been searching for a theme and inspiration and happened across my favourite poetry book which I read as a child.
It's When We Were Very Young by A A Milne
There are great poems (and titles) such as:
Corner-of-the-Street
Happiness
Market Square
Daffodowndilly
Spring Morning
Disobedience
Missing
The Mirror
The Alchemist ... and many more
enough I think to tempt even the jaded appetite to think of an image to suit.
It is what I am thinking of doing as a project to get some structure to my work. OK it may not suit all, but I thought I'd throw the suggestion into the ring. Anyone wanting more info can email me and I'll be glad to type out poems or look for possible themes amongst them for your favourite type of image.
Halfway down the stairs
is a stair where I sit
there isn't any other stair quite like it
...
..
...it isn't really anywhere
it's somewhere
else
instead!
