It’s time to share our winner and feature another vase in need of a name! Welcome to my monthly feature – ‘Name that Vase’.
For those who are new to this feature, ‘Name that Vase’ is where you can suggest a name, create a story, poem or prose for this raku pottery vase. Consider this your chance to be inspired, a writing prompt or a creative cue. You can check out a ‘Name that Vase’ post to see how it works, or if you are feeling nostalgic, you can check out the first ever ‘Name that Vase’ post that started what has now become a monthly tradition for our blog and readers.
This month we have a very special vase for your naming, but first we must congratulate last month’s winner Tish Wolfsong for their name and write-up!
Congratulations, Tish!
A Desert Morn
Reflected sunlight hails a new dawn.
The desert waits, knowing the sun will bake it hot as a kiln before darkness descends once again.

Mount Vesuvius.
The black core Stone cold and serene
When Kissed by Fire Strives to be seen
Into the sky She boils and sweeps
falls down to bury In eternal sleep

“Turquoise Sunrise”
Brightly shining upon the horizon
Glistening effervescence hope is enlightened
Molded by mercy, grace and wisdom
Within the creators hand we rise out of a system
Faith restored, harmonious balance
Breathing new life into each challenge
Unity, the new theme of the day
Bow your head, allowing fears to be washed away
Wonderful! Thank you for your entry! 🙏

A lovely piece ^_^ I give this one the name Aquarius, as they hold a vessel with water, but also for its turquoise sheen.
Thank you for your kind comment and entry, Silver! Keep well 🙏
It looks like it has a split peronality. All I could think of quickly is ” Earth and Sky” but it also had a lot of movement, almost flag- like.”Victorious Horizon?
I missed the ‘s’ out of personality and don’t know how to edit my comment.
All good!

Beautiful vase! My name for the vase is “Spirit”, after a song by Earth, Wind & Fire. Lyrics below –
Many years has passed and a day
Still we walk in a path that leads to the light
Shining down on this great beyond
Thoughts ignite us, let love unite us
Then turn your face to the wind
And taste his love within
You’ll find a friend
Everlasting love you can depend
And every time you smile, you bless a child
Our spirits perpetuate
Our spirits meditate love and faith
We must make our brother see
That the light is he
Shining on you and me
And the land he gave
Roads we must pave
Looking through each others eyes
Humanity will rise
In love
Hey, in love
In love
Yeah, in love
And our spirits
Ooo, they will be one
Yeah, they’ll be one
Be one
Wishing you a safe and successful 2021! 🎊 🎉
Thanks Eugenia! I hope you have a safe and successful 2021 as well! 🙏

“Mars”
Abandoned in fire,
Rocky liquid rains from sky;
Tempered and temperate.
Great! Thank you, Kelly! I hope you are keeping safe and well 🙏
Jupiter
Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you for your kind words and your name 🙏 Keep well!
