Friday Photo Fun - Something Relaxing

Something Relaxing

by Rachel Hoyt

A place for relaxation,

Where some reach full elation,

Take their minds on vacation,

Seek elongation,

And inner exploration.

Friday Photo Fun is when I share a randomly captured moment,

or perhaps a photo experiment with more purposeful intent,
then pair it with a rhyming riddle to exercise your mind
and teach you more weird facts to which you once were blind.

After the answer is guessed, I will post a second, non-abstract photo...

and just in case you wanted to know,
the first is not a photoshopped version of the second -

they're shot using different techniques that to me beckon.

 

 

 

So what is this thing that brings relaxation?

I await your guesses with anticipation.

UPDATE:

Bryan White has solved the riddle for today.
A yoga mat is a relaxinig place to play.

 

Friday Photo Fun - Something Few Fret

Something Few Fret

by Rachel Hoyt

 

 

Grime's worst enemy,

A germ's frenemy,

Rough and tough yet,

Something few humans fret.

You all can guess this one I bet.

The Slow Wit Poet has won again
and proved sponges are objects that ARE known to men.

 

 

Friday Photo Fun - Something Adorned

Something Adorned

by Rachel Hoyt

A symbol of life, hope and strength,

Something I've adorned at length,

A treasure trove with open air,

Filled with whips we women wear.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Pretty

Something Pretty

by Rachel Hoyt

 

 

A work of art that's carefully plotted,

Shaded, colored, lined, and dotted,

An image to guide our journey,

These days, they're mostly just, "Pretty."

and realized a map was the pretty thing that looked like diddle.

 

Friday Photo Fun - Something Draped

Something Draped

A fabulous costume accessory,

that's been loved for many a century,

makes the experience more sensory,

and creates a fluffy, happy memory.

 Both Wanda and Andy easily knew
that Feather Boas were the item I abstractified for you.

I have decided to discontinue Friday Photo Fun.

For now, this will be the last and final one.

I hope you've enjoyed my rhyming riddle series!

Do come back for the wacky news... please?



Friday Photo Fun - Something Influential

Something Influential

by Rachel Hoyt

A habit of which I am not very proud

though it's one that is praised by American crowds.

On the one hand, it's an important part of my health,

on the other it's a symbol of wastefulness and wealth.

It took more than a day, but Bryan figured out
that my use of plastic water bottles makes me want to pout.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Colorful

Something Colorful

by Rachel Hoyt

The inventor of this thing created 5,000 types of glass

and paid his male employees equal to each lass.

He charged a hefty sum to those who liked his work

but paid enough to artisans to not get called a jerk.

that it was a stained glass lampshade, a Tiffany.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Wooden

Something Wooden

by Rachel Hoyt

A pastime that has been around for centuries,

requiring skills not found in fingers, toes or knees.

A way to keep your brain power un-molded. 

The very best at this do it blindfolded.

that chess keeps your brain functioning sprightly.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Spinning

Something Spinning

by Rachel Hoyt

Uses less electricity than a single light

and saves even more when operated right.

In the late 1800s we invented this tool

to help our days feel fresh and cool.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Soft

Something Soft

by Rachel Hoyt

Loved by people who have gone crazy

or taken drugs until their vision is hazy

because it's soothing to touch and pet

(though if caught doing that you may feel regret).

No one guessed the full answer, padded walls,
but Wanda knew velvety things are soft like paws.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Swinging

Something Swinging

by Rachel Hoyt

This item has a much longer history than many know.

Many probably buy them solely for a pretty show,

Yet once upon a time they were used for protection,

To send evil spirits running the other direction.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Saved

Something Saved

by Rachel Hoyt

(The item in this abstract photo is an antique bowl made with the item described in the riddle.

Can you guess what my great great uncle chose to save though it would seem to be worth piddle?

Rumored to have been invented to protect

white gloves of fair maidens (who's opinions they'd usually neglect).

At the time, the fine thing it adorned

wasn't an enjoyment for which people were scorned.

who could figure out the answer was the band/label on a cigar.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Special

Something Special

Recently discovered to be more closely related

Once used to make guitar picks,

Now, for other reasons, is hunted by hicks.

Friday Photo Fun - Something in Landscape

Something in Landscape

They decorate the landscape around a music hall

named for a man who animated smiles for all.

It's color is calming, loving and lovely.

In 2005 it was California's 'it' tree.

or kill germs and bacteria on a whim

while taking your taste buds on a trip

to somewhere much more exotic and hip.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Grown

Something Grown

by Rachel Hoyt

A field full looks like rainbows -

one of Mother Nature's very best shows.

Their Asiatic origin, I bet no one knows,

because that isn't where the bulk today grows.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Antique

Something Antique

by Rachel Hoyt

Invented around the same time as instant coffee,

cellophane and Life Savers candy.

They're helpful for saving time and energy.

I use my modern one quite frequently.

So, what's in this snap I took at an antique store?

Can you guess which thing I couldn't ignore?

Friday Photo Fun - Something Plentiful

Something Plentiful

by Rachel Hoyt

Wild ones make one think of harm,

because sometimes they are short on charm,

though their transformational qualities are many.

For good or bad they grow aplenty.

Friday Photo Fun - Something Scrumptious

Something Scrumptious

by Rachel Hoyt

In ancient times, some slaves survived on this, water and bread.

Some said it cures drunkenness, overeating and sicknesses of tummy or head!

Currently China produces around 66% of the world's supply.

It's a member of the lily family often eaten by you and I.

So what is this thing that my senses find scrumptious?

Go ahead, take a guess.  Be presumptuous!
