Day 115 – 2022 Creativity Project

2022 Creativity Project – March 28

1
There is a feeling,
Extraordinary, when
A new book opens
And the reader goes within
To travel worlds, places, times.

2
Reading is such joy
To be caught up in story,
A shiny new toy.

3
It is cumbersome
Bumbling through every day,
Searching for a way
Outside the hive of struggle
Into a higher state, life.

Thank you for visiting Haphazard Creative. Please come back soon, share with others, and if you did, share a like.

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 Creativity Project – March 9

Triple Tanka
1
Time, a volcano,
Turning elements into flame
Hearts afire again;
If only for one moment
Caught before returning rain.
2
Say we are raveled
Though spun with sincerest care
Hard use it spoils, tears,
Loving cannot erase; its
Pardons, though, it quickly makes.
3
Birthday remembered
Though effort made to take
It from memory,
There is that second I wish
Myself wherever you are.

I finished another book today. I am behind; I have read only nine this year. Long ones, though, some would say that makes no matter. They would agree with me. Still, I think it explains.

I am thankful I got the fiberfill the dog scatters off the carpet, sweeping. I also washed three loads of clothes and a dishwasher full of dishes. I would I felt more energetic. I am lying down as I write this.

Yes, I know you do not have to know, but I am challenged; maybe you are too. Perhaps we should more often celebrate progress.

Prompt
Progress can be anything that is completed which includes challenge or not. Create a piece celebrating progress.

Thank you for visiting Haphazard Creative; please like, follow, and share the site. I hope you will come back again. Your comments are always welcome. Bless you, finishing off this week. Remember those who need your thoughts and prayers. If you can pay it forward, do it.

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.
