Wrote the beginning of a poem yesterday, to go with a new weekly prompt from Poetic Asides. Here it is:
Anyway, now that we're in a new year, I think it makes sense to make this week's prompt to write a poem that deals with something new. You can decide what that new thing is. You could write about the new year, a new item (many people just received gifts during the holidays last month), a new relationship, or even the lack of anything new.
So, I let myself have a go at it. I took into account the flooding in the state, the rearranging of our furniture, current and future remodeling we are doing/plan to do and what we found in doing so. It just felt good to have written something. I think now I'm going to allow myself some sleep, so that I can feel more rested tomorrow. I taught three classes at the gym today, and that's a challenge. It'll be interesting to see how my body translates that during the night, and how I feel in the morning. Right now I feel better than I expected to.
I also got my hair cut, again. And next week I have a reading in Redmond. Wonder what I'll read?
