Sunday Snap Shot - Converging Creativity 11.11.12

Welcome to New World Creative Union and Sunday Snap Shot.
We strive at NWCU to inspire creative thought that can be translated into multiple genres of art.
I met Michael Burgoyne on Twitter (@MB_IndiePoet8) and fell in love with his poetry. His work has inspired several of my shots and more poetry. Today I asked Michael to collaborate our creativity and see what emerges. He took a photograph of mine and wrote a poem from it. I took a poem of his and was inspired to shoot a picture. I believe all of us can be inspired by art or by words. Is there someone in your sphere whose work you admire? 
Here's the challenge - develop your work off the art or words of another. That person could be a friend, a famous person, or someone you have seen around the blogsphere. Please be sure to attribute that person's work and join us as we strive toward a greater level of creativity!!!

Peering in Prisms

Peering in prisms
repelling shadows
luminating dawn's inception
upon a mosaic splattered canvas
enticing through transparent glass
erupting visions
electrifying the synaptic cleft of the mind
towards the awakening
ultimate enlightenment
sparking heavenly life
carried with the winds of tranquility
the breath of meditation
whisking
providing spiritual guidance
upon the wings of eternal glory
culminated in the ascent
the journey to our divine mountain peak
foreshadowed in the highlands of our faith derived dreams

Rainbow manic dawn
silhouettes our celestial canvas
echoing with a vibrant breeze
whispering in stereophonics
trailblazers you are

I asked Michael what his creative process was.
"Simply, all I do is look at the images, have it spark some type of emotion or creative flow, and I run with it. I allow the image or the idea to consume me. Sometimes the words pour out of me while with others the creative process takes quite awhile."

Thanks Michael for letting your creativity to flow at The New World Creative Union.
