One of Dublin, Ireland’s brightly painted doors

That is one very sunny doorway singing the blues!
very fitting haiku for ‘blues’ ~ love the photo ~
(A Creative Harbor) on blogger ^_^
Ha! That really got me thinking of all the different scenarios that might fit – very cool haiku and door!!! Love it!
she may have to repaint, or repent!
The blues is always about sorrow and loss.
Cheers!
JzB
Blues about loss for sure. Very likable.
I want this color door — LOVE IT!!!
What a sad story … behind those colorful doors sadness can be present … very well done MMT on our prompt for today. Thank you for sharing.
What a cheerful door !
Love the haiku MMT.
Very interesting door
Thanks for dropping by.
sad haiku! I hope it’s fictional. that yellow door makes my red door seem conservative!
