Week six has been fun. If you’ll recall, each day during week five, I read a poem about sleep, which in some cases meant death. Since that was depressing, I promised to look for something a little lighter this week and my son helped me pick the theme: Fish! You’ll notice I also included aContinue reading “Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Six”

Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Five
Great things come in fives. Five traditional elements. Five Olympic rings. Five senses. Most of us have five fingers on each hand and five toes on each foot. And now entering week five, my weekly poetry readings! In the last post I hinted at a theme for this week: sleep. Unfortunately I forgot most traditionalContinue reading “Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Five”
If I were trapped inside a book
Last week, a Facebook meme popped up asking what TV show you want to be trapped in. I don’t watch much television. I’ve never even heard of half of the shows people listed. Obviously, that was one post I didn’t share. (Although, if someone threatened to toss me into the pit of doom unless I pickedContinue reading “If I were trapped inside a book”
Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Four
Week Four into my poetry reading challenge and I need to tell you the past few days have been difficult for me to keep my part of the bargain. Last week I picked up a cold from somewhere and now both kids are home sick. When that happens, I tend to just go through the motions. Do theContinue reading “Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Four”
Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Three
I’m on week three! I’ve also added a photo :). I read somewhere that photos are a must, so I tried to add a photo last week. I dumped out a bunch of those magnetic poetry pieces on the table and tried to make a small poem. ‘Silver angels smiled’ and then something else thatContinue reading “Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Three”
Weekly Poetry Reading – Week Two
When did time become so fast? Two weeks have already flown by. It was harder to keep up with the challenge this week. A couple of my days didn’t go as planned, but I’ve stuck with it and I’m proud to say I’ve read seven more poems. My reading selections for the second week:
Weekly Poetry Reading – Week One
At the end of last year, I made myself a resolution to read a poem a day. As I said in the original post, I’m not a poet. I’m not sure I want to be a poet, either. But I have great respect for poets and words. In an effort to learn more about both,Continue reading “Weekly Poetry Reading – Week One”
2015 Reading Challenge
Remember what I said about challenges? I’ll take them on when and if I can? Well, I ran across this challenge over at Lynette Noni’s blog and think I’m going to take it on. I didn’t plan on doing a reading challenge this year, but this looks like so much fun! I’m going to readContinue reading “2015 Reading Challenge”
An Unexpected Discovery
11th Day of Harvest Season I had meant to begin today’s entry recounting the changes at the farm, unfortunately events unfolded that now push my thoughts into darker territory. Brother Milton and I took every precaution when we left the temple. We waited until the bells stopped ringing, leaving during the darkest period of night.Continue reading “An Unexpected Discovery”
Reunion
10th Day of Harvest Season When we arrived at the twin trees, no one waited for us. I’m afraid my body can’t travel through the countryside as it once did. We missed our appointment by at least one sunset. Of Hilla and her sister, Poppy, all that remained were tracks in the mud. She hadContinue reading “Reunion”
