2022 Creativity Project – March 11

Places, Ease

The can dropped, rings
Like the closing bell clanging
On another day
Trading coffee tomorrows
For biscuits, bacon, today.
A quadruped walks
Head high, tail, intense sniffing
Finds it is worthwhile
To traipse roundabout more
Or occupy cushions, lured.
Neurons dream special
Cause to gamble on a chance
Presenting as words
Flowing across lighted screen
Deep satisfaction in being.

Prompt
Juxtapose some ordinary things making them into creation.

Gratitude List
I am thankful:
1. My dogs.
2. Awesome stories.
3. Time enough to express feelings.

2022 – 365 Creativity Project – March 7

Tanka in Review
1
Authority frames
Work and yet, there is freedom,
Which allows it more
The words like dear angels soar
Above, around, ah, galore.
2
We can walk away
But then nothing changes us,
Going in, ignite,
Becoming a fertile vision
Aflame with noble purpose.
3
When we are the low
We aspire to reach the high
We try, then begin
The climb to futures, desire
Claims the top, grasps childlike.
4
A feeling sighs in –
Clouds above traveling high
Untouched, but by sky,
Racing, racing to apply
Image, magic, before rain.

Prompt
Tanka is a favorite of forms; these are syllabics of 5-7-5-7-7 count. Try some.

Reading seems to be a great inspiration to me. If you have the opportunity, read widely and much.

Gratitude List
I am thankful:
1. I went to town.
2. Rested over the weekend.
3. Reading great material.
4. I Talked to my cousin.
5. Good sleep.

I appreciate your visit and encourage you to like this post, follow, and share the site. Any comments are welcome.

Wookie

I was broken
Lost my “Hope”
Needed belief,
Her face –
That beauty –
Unbearable
To go on
Without,
Threw all
Including
Thanksgiving,
Aside to go
Rescue
The Marbles
That almost
Demolished
My physicality.

Today, truce,
I never
Trust her,
She sometimes
Believes in me,
We love each
Other with
A dis-ease
Like magnets
Attracting
Repelling.

She is
A lunatic,
I am mental,
We suit
One another
Because
We learned
To trust
Whatever
We are
It could get
Better,
It could be
Worse,
But who
We are is
Together.

Prompt: Maybe you have an “unsettling” relationship. Create…

ON GRAVEL
The bedrock of life
Is not a smooth surface
Many times are rocky,
Walking is careful
To avoid turning
An ankle on a misstep
Where broken rock trips
Souls toward disaster;
Measuring always
Scenery surrounding
Wild, whether country,
Or anxious cityscape
Where many soles
Travel the pavement.
Business beating all
A heart-swelling rhythm
Jockeying for eminence
Stealing copious hours
To lend – swiftly recovered
Dollars for delicate breath
No chance to dance
Over gravel for haste,
Life’s chase consuming pace.

Moonlight Symphony – © Jo Ann J. A. Jordan

Moonlight Symphony

Can you feel the kiss
Of the light upon your face,
The breezy caress
Coming to you from deep space,
Love for you in every trace?
Are you open to
Songs finding their way to you,
Whispering your name?
So many gifts time brings, romance,
Love chooses heartstrings to woo.
How precious are you
The moon in a sky, you light –
Illuminating
Night, dance around and around
A delightful perfection of sound.
Always cherished
A moonlight symphony in motion
Eliciting continual devotion –
Love lifting high, bringing round,
A partner in you now found.

PROMPT
It is time, you know, time for the love creations. Even if you are not a poet, you might give it a whirl for your best guy or girl. If you lack romance, write as if you caught a glance.

Gratitude List
1) I went to Sam’s today.
2) Newsboys.
3) Having an extra screen protector.
4) Strangers assisted me because I was having difficulty.
5) Airheads.
