#Writober Day 11: Silence or noise
#OctPoWriMo Today’s OctPoWriMo theme is Silence or noise. I like today’s suggested poetry form Loop poetry. I tried a loop poem, but didn’t like it as much as the free form poem I wrote first. It was inspired by silence or noise, so here’s that one instead. Writing In Silence I write in theContinue reading “#Writober Day 11: Silence or noise”

#Writober Day 8: Scent
#OctPoWriMo Today’s OctPoWriMo theme is Scent. I wrote a post about smell back when I started this blog and did a series on exploring the senses. Passing Thyme Passing the pots on the porch, I fondle the herbs Thyme lingers on my fingers surprising me later with a trip to my past a pizza partyContinue reading “#Writober Day 8: Scent”
#Writober 2019 Day 6: Blue
#OctPoWriMo Today’s OctPoWriMo theme is Blue. I liked all the different ways blue is used, especially “bluing the air.” I don’t remember hearing that before.

Final Days of 2017 #FD2017 Day 25: Surviving The Rare White Christmas!
For our final odd ornament visual prompt I found a gift from 1996 still in its box. The box had some interesting info. I’m loving the name Grzegorz. I think the ball is painted with drums, but that’s a guess. From this view, it could be stylized black holes. #vss very short story While herContinue reading “Final Days of 2017 #FD2017 Day 25: Surviving The Rare White Christmas!”

Final Days of 2017 Day 23: Yeti Paws
This has been hanging on the inside doorknob of my bedroom door ever since I received it from my Swedish “sister”. God Jul means Merry Christmas in Swedish. I am not sure what the fur is, but I’m going to go ahead and say it was made from Yeti paws. #vss very short story HannahContinue reading “Final Days of 2017 Day 23: Yeti Paws”
