2022 Creatvity Project – Feb. 26

Bare Trees

Light falls
Shadows
Raining
Into souls
Captivated
By whispers
Leaves titter
In breezes
Competing
With thoughts
Unsought
Poorly
Reflecting
Colors frame
Memory
Doubting
Is there time,
Time enough
To stretch
Reaching
Toward a sky
Bleached
With doubt
Fear, fading
Fast another
Chance
Opportunity
To find
Whatever
Dreams provide
Decide might
Add livability
Bring joy
Where broken
Is the heart
Spilled out
Like blood
From wounds
Only love
Can stitch
To heal
Make real.

Brevity

The dogs
Tying trying
Round feet
Stumbling
As if
Balance
Left behind
In fairer
Climes
Where time
Was seconds
Of days
Sunned
On skis
Rivers
Lakes
Wherever
Never
Expecting
Future to
Steal away
Dauntless
Strength
Endurance
Growing was
Pleasure
Then became
Older,
Never
Let go.

Prompt
Shadows, whispers, the passage of days, pick one or all, create.

2022 Creativity Project – Feb. 24

Challenge
Not here to fade away
But to live a testament
To the courage others
Exhibited before they left;
How they fought against
The encroachment of death,
How they maintained love,
Sharing, never growing bitter,
Trying always to be better
Each day though the shadows
Left no doubt life’s time was
Very swiftly running out
Living without fear or regret.
Heroes such as seldom seen
Those who love does not forget.

Prompt
Create something to honor heroes.

I am grateful for the ability to think.

Bridges
There are spaces which
Must be crossed with diligence,
Portions of the mind
Needing sound conductors to
Tie information, intelligence
Together and send
Packets from beginning to
End, enrich – and toss
Them like basketballs over
Distance to net scored much more.

Caring Carry
We are here, not there,
But God exists everywhere,
He watches over
All things, each being, treasure
Created through His command.
The squirrels, robins
Are His as are we, you know,
Forget not His LOVE
All tenderness and kindness
Jesus provides, stay by His side.

Prompt
Bridges – create.

I am thankful I noticed the little dog’s face needed cleaning and trimming.

2022 Creativity Project – Feb. 22

Always Faithful

Loyalty, at times
Can best be found residing
In the noble heart
Of a friend on furry feet
Who cannot secrets repeat.
The eyes a glory
Focused with love, devotion,
Finding such pleasure
In helping sorrow abate
With gentleness, sweet kisses.
Tender is the heart
Joined in comfort, friendship,
Who will stay until
The last, when tears fill our eyes
And we are broken in loss.

Prompt
Consider the ones who always cheer for you, those you can trust; create something.

I am grateful for a warmer day though there was rain at the edges. I was glad for the Oreos and Almond Milk. I am happy that it seems I may be losing a bit of the weight I have gained. Clean bed linens are a piece of Heavenly delight. I am thankful for my home.

2022 Creativity Project – Feb. 21

Beheld

Nothing evident
Only a single attempt
To signal others
About what probability
May be learned between spaces
Suddenly all
The letters could shift around
Configure anew
Convey another message
But memory its stages
Might still somehow know
The voice spoken into space
Echoing in places
Unknown yet present today
What was said, what still does say
Forever reaching
Searching for reason, meaning
Where voices teeming
Dilute, confuse, make rubbish
Of a delicate balance
Created for blessing
Sharing, caring, loving, being
A gift remembered
Gracious, audacious, infectious
Unique, creative, precious.

Away

The heart has its home
In a far country, fair, free
Where all problems flee
Taken away by Jesus’ Love;
A home where perfection
Is always in everything.

© Jo Ann J. A. Jordan

Prompt
Use the word “between” and create from there.
