Rated: 18+ · Book · Writing · #2326194

A new blog to contain answers to prompts

Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas " became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one.

Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.

I'm impressed how easy you make random words seem, Joy! Great job.

Good job! I especially liked the following lines because I can relate:

no clear *definition yet, but the ink flows free
I let the keyboard *click for lines to be

Great post, Joy!

I can't imagine sitting there with both hands up every time the teacher had something to say. Though I guess that's a smaller percentage of the time in art class than other classes.

In response to "On a Spring Quote"

Here spring comes and goes for a time before driving winter back to it's hide-a-way. Right now we have snow; started yesterday morning and will end sometime this evening.

For my olfactory memories, it's lilacs blooming. I don't know why, but the scent of lilacs releases semi-forgotten memories, reassures me spring is really here, and if I let myself, I can become lost in the soft, sweet, music they trigger within.

In response to "April Fools Day"

I agree, I don't like pranks and I find it very confusing reading stories online or seeing things on Instagram and having to work out whether they are fake or not - it is hard enough at the best of times to work out what is genuine and what isn't!!

I didn't know that about the start of the year changing from April to January though - if that is true and not a joke!!

In response to "April Fools Day"

I think it's a smart choice staying home and letting the day pass by.

I had done my share of pranks over the years. I might still pull one off before midnight. You just never know with me. Incorrigible!

No worries ...I will behave for you, though!

@ An apple a day....

- that's crazy! the only time I am bored is when I am at work

. There is so much to do the rest of the time, in fact there are not enough non-working hours in the day....

I suppose I am the most enthusiastic about travelling and going on holiday!

In response to "On Enthusiasm and Its Power"

I'm always enthused, excited and inspired with painting. I have a relative who is always complaining that she is bored with nothing to do. I have never been in that situation and try to inspire her to draw or read or craft, etc., but she just is not interested. I wish I could think of some way to help her.

In response to "On Learning"

The blogger discussed the importance of learning. Why do we learn? Except for increasing our knowledge, these also help to increase our efficiency, which helps us to make our lives better.These lessons always make us more experienced if they are learnt from our daily lives, not from the theoretical only.

No More Blank Page!

Prompt:
Use these words in your entry: blank, margin, definition, startle, maneuver, roads, and click.

--------

No More Blank Page!

I sit at my desk relaxed, since I'm in no rush
but a *blank page waits in a *margin's hush

then suddenly I *startle, my thoughts take flight
I swiftly *maneuver on a *road of light

no clear *definition yet, but the ink flows free
I let the keyboard *click for lines to be

many twists and turns, and my words are in place
such a shock, for a poem's born with a yucky face
