Sue’s prompt for #WritePhoto today:
The walls have ears, so they say
Silent they stand, stark and grey
But the things they’ve seen over the ages
Could overfill a writers pages
Happiness, sadness and all in between
A bit of it all, they have seen
Buildings ravaged, falling down
Roots creeping round, gnarled and brown
Yet the things they see, memories may fray,
But sights can never ever be wiped awayRitu 2017

And/or the photo
Off to an engagement in an hour so I can’t go mad with my haiku, but here is one, using the words.
The way I see it
We are all from the same tree
Each of us a leafRitu 2017
And a Tanka from the photo!
Standing quietly
A leaf of paper floats down
I look up, he smiles
Love letters sent from above
Italian romance startsRitu 2017
