Prompted poetry: photo caption

I subscribe via e-mail to The Write Prompts. On Image Tuesdays, the e-mail I receive only contains the photo’s caption; I have to click the link to see the actual image. A couple weeks ago, the caption by itself suggested a poem. I finally looked at the photo when I went back to revise the poem, and found exactly what I needed to make it work. Here’s to creative captions!

blue water fountain stone
garden palms heavy
fruited lemons

water falling soft
sound of sighing
stirs leaves and oleander

scented twilight glowing
salmon deepens blue water
fountain stone garden
