Stopping in to say hello.

Today I was given the gift of remembrance through the eyes of a total stranger. Our conversation was brief, but profound. I was extremely moved by his pride and passion in recalling a single occassion. All this from one very old photograph held within a book. There is more to the story, but I wanted to share this with you. Always take the time to listen to others. Don't fiegn attention. Truly listen. Not only will you have gained knowledge of something you may not have known, but you may also have helped to heal a soul.

Yellow.

The sun is casting my shadow onto the black-eyed susans
as I watch the bees and the bugs go to and fro.
Sipping on the best freshly squeezed lemonade,
I smile, and inhale the yellow.

Sleepwriting

Keep a journal by your bed,
because the thoughts within your head
will burst while your asleep, and then
you'll pop awake, and find instead
of writing, that you seek your pen.

I am not sure how many are actually reading the discussions minus Karen & I, but I had an idea for something fun to do. This actually is an excercise used in my sons class, but its applicable here if you have an open mind. Ok. The idea is to designate a color and write about it in any style you wish. There are no rules except to use your imagination. Just to start things off I will pick the first color, and from there you choose whatever color you want. Hey it might inspire someone else to use the same color. In the Spirit of Easter I pick Yellow. There are so many reasons why, but I guess I should save that for my poem, story, essay, prose, short story...:) (If you don't like the color I picked go ahead and do your favorite!)

Hi Karen. I plan on sharing some of my works soon. My life is hectic (2 jobs, single mom w/2 kids.) I stopped writing for quite some time. I just started getting back into the flow. I started a blog to help me out, but it's still a work in progress. http://duckydez-onceupona.blogspot.com

all my poetry can be found at: http://whereangelswatch.blogspot.com/
I just wrote a poem (and associated wordle) today in response to the latest sunday scribblings post:



There are days

When I forget


That I don't have to do it alone.

That you are with me,

And you

Know what to do.


Those are scary days.


Days when I feel

that I will sink

beneath the waves.


That I will be

storm damaged


Broken against the rocks

Of other peoples expectations.


But you have told me

That your love

Casts out fear.


All I have to do

Is remember


That you are with me.

I think this is a great site and I, too, look forward to the opportunity to get to know and hear from everyone.

Karen: maybe you could share some of your poetry with us and then your fan club can grow. :-)
