The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: a finale.
Mine:
So here we are: the final curtain;
How we got here, I'm not quite certain.
While it's been a trip, I must admit,
It is well past time for me to quit.
Happy new year! I'll see you for one final post tomorrow.
The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: outcasts.
Busy day of last minute shopping, wrapping presents, sneaking around in order to maintain the magic of Santa, and... it all actually went pretty well. Despite the cold and wind and overabundance of energy and excitement in the house.
Merry Christmas!
The exercise:
Write a four line poem that has something to do with being: on the edge.
Miles' slow crawl towards recovery continues, as he's showed more signs of his usual self the last two days. Before snuggling up for a family movie night in our bed this evening he, quite out of nowhere, said he wanted hot chocolate.
So I made him hot chocolate, because him showing interest in any sort of food or drink is a win these days.
The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: results.
Penticton will have a new mayor, and council got significantly younger which, I strongly suspect, will be a good thing overall. The Regional District has two new area directors (one of which I'd say 100% of staff will be happy to hear about), though I'd expected a third. The margin of victory in that one strongly suggests I had no idea what I was talking about.
Monday will see the start of preparation for welcoming a new board of directors to the Regional District, but we've got some time to do that as the inaugural meeting doesn't arrive until November 10th.
The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: ignition.
Done with being in the car for a few days. And sitting for long periods of time. And thinking.
(Honestly it was genuinely interesting and useful stuff but, like, brain done now)
The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: a compromise. Or something that has been compromised. Or even a compromising situation, if that strikes your fancy.
We're in Kamloops for the night for one of Kat's cousin's wedding. It's been a big day.
The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: plotting. And/or scheming. Whatever floats your boat.
