More Three Words - Poetry Style:


Did you forget?
How could you?

Can't stop now!
Keep on trying.

Just do it!
Good for you.

What-cha waitin' for?
Move those fingers!

Don't you remember?
Feelings of accomplishment!

Write for you --
Just write now!

    Like that green hand-is this a delayed April Fool's joke? I think I'll print this out to use like a big slap on the back, Michelle-keep going, keep going! I like the way you arranged it into couplets.

    I really like the last two stanzas:
    Don't you remember?
    Feelings of accomplishment!

    Write for you --
    Just write now!

    Keep writing and sharing. Have a good day! Love ya M

    Michelle,
    I am not sure how this happened but I wanted to post a comment on today's slice-and somehow it ended up on the wrong date. So, here it is again...

    Found some of these three word phrases when I ate lunch out...

    "Nibble. Giggle. Repeat"
    "Dig in. Grin"
    "Glass-half-full, kind of day"
    Amy
    PS You've inspired my latest-all about Kam, a hayride and not MY back pockets:

{#sol15} deeper than beauty 8/31

The March Slice of Life Story Challenge hosted  at the  Two Writing Teachers Join us for a month of writing! I have twin four and a half -- almost five! -- year old daughters.  I try to be consciously aware of what I say and do in regards to my body image and self-esteem and also with their body image and self-esteem. First of all, because I don't want them to believe everything that society says is true.  Even if they don't fully understand it today.  In addition, because they are fraternal twin sisters, I want them to understand they are individuals with unique and different bodies that God created for each of them.   However, society -- including my loving family and friends -- tell a different story and harmlessly create a comparison war.   My girls constantly hear how beautiful, adorable, cute, fill-i...

{bedtime stories} 2/31 #sol16

The March Slice of Life Story Challenge hosted  at the  Two Writing Teachers Join us for a month of writing! _________________________________________________________ "Time to head upstairs.  PJs on and let's brush teeth!"  My very favorite time of the day is bedtime with the girls.  I hurry and hustle and bustle them along, so that we have plenty of time to settle into a bedtime story or two (or more like three).  Each girl picks out a book and then one usually snags a third. "Mommy, this is one that you want to read. Right?"  When the girls are completely ready for bed, we meet in my bedroom to snuggle in the big bed.  I'm in the middle, sandwiched between the two girls.  Heads resting close by, slowly slithering closer, they each nestle on my shoulder to get a closer look at every ...

A Conversation with My Writer Self

I don't know what to write about today. [Scratching head.  Bulging eyes staring at the blank screen.] Write about the ordinary. Write about the little things. Just write and write. I know, I know.  But I don't know what to write. [Shoulder shrug. Clicking fingertips on the keyboard.] Open your writer's notebook. Search for an idea, a seed, a spark. Let it grow, ignite and you will write. My writer's notebook? Oh, that little book that has been ignored?  Unattended?  Left blank? [Digging and searching for my notebook.] Live the life of a writer. Ideas breathe all around you  every day.   In and out.  In and out. I know. I know. [Dusting the notebook off. Cracking it open as if it hasn't been opened in years.] It's time to revive the notebook. Open your eyes and ears to your world that's waiting to be captured and shared. I know what to write about today., but first, let me write down a few ideas. [Bringing my wr...
