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 – 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.

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.

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

Gratitude List
I am thankful:
1. I can love.
2. I have slept.
3. I learn.
4. My dogs are good for me.
