The exercise:

Write a four line poem about: a year in the life.

Today marks the one year anniversary of our moving into our home in Penticton. It's been quite a ride.

  1. You have handed me some tough prompts to work with before, but I think a four-line poem based around "a year in the life" is quite possibly the toughest. A year, in four lines? Really? :-p

    Congratulations on your one year anniversary in the (new) house; that means that your work anniversary will now be a week before the house anniversary? That's quite good planning, you should have a joint anniversary party next year :)

    A year in the life
    But I know before long I’ll only want more A cartographer
    Is for life, not a year or two, so
    To add to the maps I’ll get one at the store!
    And then leap in the hearse as it’s time to go.

    [Yes, it's not quite there but it's probably the best I could do under the circumstances]

  2. Greg - yes, really. I expect you to be up for the challenge too.

    And I shall start planning for the dual anniversary festivities forthwith.

    Hah, I say well done. I shall try to be nicer next Saturday :)
