Playing with words
Love, sun, bliss, pink, mariposa


While going through some of my magazine files this morning, I came across this one:


It's a photograph I found in an old April 2004 Smithsonian Magazine photographer unknown

Immediately upon seeing it I realized I wanted to share this and the 5 beautiful words that Carmen sent me. They are: Love, Sun, Bliss, Pink, and Mariposa.

If you would like to post a poem, picture or story using 5 beautiful words. Leave me a comment telling me you want to play and I will send you 5 different but equally beautiful words.

Can you find the Mariposa?

  1. I am just awed by this photo. Not sure why, but there it is. It definitely displays your five words beautifully. I'm not sure what mariposa is (I suspect a flower?)...is it in the fan she is holding?

  2. omg this is so beautiful, I can't stand it.

    I don't know, but her fan looks like a butterfly wing.

  3. This is such a wonderful pose, I love the words too. The picture seems to tell many stories, I love how photographs can do that.

  4. She is a beauty indeed. I love this photograph. May I print it out? It looks like the life of Riley but I'm sure it wasn't in those days. She is just sneaking a quick nap and fell into a deep sleep and well deserving. Awesome. I can find the flower. I tried looking all over and can't find it.Thanks.

  7. Beautiful. Thanks for sharing. Seems the shape of the hammock and her body make up the mariposa. Altho I won't blog post just yet, I'd still like to have the 5 words for inspiration. xoxoxo
