Alaska spring erupts
With sounds of music
Geese honk
Forming vs in flight
Sandhill cranes
Giant turkeys on stilts
Crooning melodies to
Their mates
Seagulls screech
Mine, mine, mine
Begging for handouts
Ahhhhhlaska

Those wordsmithy editors at Trifecta are seeking onoatopoeia in 33 words . . . at least one example. The “flats” in Kenai are abuzz with a cacophony of sound right now as the birds pause to feed on their way northward. My 33 include some of those sounds.
And, do . . . if you would like . . . take a gander at my Texas posts. I found much to love about my visit in Texas. I want to share that with you as well.
Enjoyed all your fowl onomatopoeia! Not to mention you made another one with your home state! Nicely done.
Written like poetry. You’ve created lovely images.
Ahhhh-mazing!
Ahhhlaska😃 kinda like my home state put the Ahs (a play on Oz) in Kansas. By the way– I, too, have family in Texas. It’s such a vast state, but I hope you got to the Alamo. Love your big smooch you planted on your Aunt.
A cacophony of onomatopoeia. 🙂
I bet alaska sounds as unique as it looks.
good one
Happy Mama Moose Day, mama
Can I come visit? Love nature and all its cacophony! And this piece…Ahhhhhhh!
But it’s still cold.
haha just kidding (: This sounds lovely. I would love to see all of the different fauna and flora up there!
Arghh, screeching seagulls. You’ve painted a beautiful picture.
Nature inspired me this weekend, too. But I think yours is noisier by far – love the ‘cacophony’ you described 🙂
What beautiful imagery you created Barbara,love it:-)
Nice, turning the name into onomatopoeia itself.
Thanks for linking up!
Spring is busy, isn’t it!!! You sound glad to be home!
Photographing Alaska is at the top of my Bucket List. Whenever you write about your state, just makes me want to come all the more.
