Go Ahead

Entry Eighteen – 2023 Creativity Project

Everything is hard
Even simple things challenge –
So be Miracles –
Let creativity guide,
Expect the impossible
Dream to become True;
Love beyond extreme measure,
Life, precious treasure.

Prompt: Create something that attests to the miraculous happenings occurring around and to you.

Gratitude List –
I am grateful:

1. My second mammogram cleared me and alleviated a great deal of stress.
2. I have stopped drinking diet soda which is tremendous because, since childhood, I drank them, sometimes more than a case a day.
3. I went to the grocery this week and purchased some much-needed food.
4. I am writing consistently.
5. I weigh 135 to 140 pounds.

Miscellaneous Strange

Entry Thirteen – 2023 Creativity Project

I am working in different modes because my feeling of today is eerie strangeness.

2. My best friend, Reba.
3. It is no longer 2022.
4. A bit of interchangeable knowledge.

Pages, Pages

Entry Twelve – 2023 Creativity Project

I explored it all in my journal, but there remains so much to say. I am fighting to stand today.

I am at home on journal pages, but even so, there are things I never bring myself to say. How would I keep you? You would turn away.

Always & Ever,
Jo Ann

Randomness

Entry Nine – 2023 Creativity Project

Creativity is the motor, imagination the spark, and motivation the drive; randomness is sometimes the result.

Each poem today comprises conjoined tanka, five lines with syllables, 5-7-5-7-5. They are intended to be a bit jarring.
