Flowers Along the Path

If you read my Stream of Consciousness Saturday, you’ll know that I found a couple of new, fun projects. Today, I was determined to continue my flower-a-day idea (guess I take Sundays off). I started my drawing, attempting to only use the colored pencils, not the regular pencil outline, but that did not work forContinue reading “Flowers Along the Path”

I Couldn’t Think of Anything: ended up with way too much

I can’t believe we’re already at the halfway point. The days are flying. There’s a free online writing conference this weekend starting tomorrow called WRITEHIVE. I signed up yesterday. There are free workshops and presentations all weekend. Did any of you attend last year? I hope you’ll join me.

I bet I can read and leave comments on fiveContinue reading “#NaPoWriMo Day 2: A Different Choice”

April First: And so it begins

It’s the very first day of National Poetry Writing Month and the prompt is to “derange” myself, make the world strange and see it as a stranger. This could tie in nicely with the April PAD Challenge prompt: write an introduction poem. As part of my poem, I could introduce a stranger: create a personaContinue reading “April First: And so it begins”

The Cherry Blossoms Starting to Fall

Today is Haibun Monday at dVerse Poets Pub and I found the cherry blossoms prompt timely. I went out to admire the cherry-plum trees in bloom and noticed the grass is already littered with pink. I’m glad Frank inspired me to spend some time admiring the pink against the sky before it is gone. EmergingContinue reading “The Cherry Blossoms Starting to Fall”
