Our spring winds blowing
yellow creosote blossoms
bow to their partner.
The plants are changing
their dresses drop to the ground
springtime allergies
Can you use the word SPRING to write an acrostic today? Have fun writing.
Start by writing the word SPRING down the left side of your page, then fill in the words.
Special time,
Plants
Release new leaves
In
Neon
Green.
Welcome

haiku
purple blossoms dance
in the hot, dry desert winds
more and more dust blows
I don't know why, but it seems like the desert winds have been blowing for the last month. Yesterday when I was out there was so much dust in the air I couldn't see the Santa Catalina Mountains in the distance. Think about dust for a moment. What does it mean in your life? Is it the motes that float on sunbeams? Is it a magic for faeries? Or is it just the plain old dust that leaves dirt on table tops? You guessed it, today's poetry prompt is to write a poem about dust. Have fun writing.

haiku
fierce wind gusts and roars
citrus blossoms fall from trees--
broken promises
wildflowers rolling
bending toward the ground
waiting for calm
pink mallow flowers
dancing by the picket fence
thankful for the rain
As you can see, I've been playing with haiku again. Here are three. Which one do you like best? It really is a great day to be inside writing. I hope your writing is going well. Happy Sunday.
