Wool-Gathering in Three Parts or an Affirmation on Day Dreaming
I
aimless and sleepy
you idle the day away
gathering wool thoughts
II
wool-gathering thoughts
to spin daydreams for blankets
indulging your mind
III
to indulge your mind
and gather woolly respite
will sustain your soul
This 36 word ode to the awesomeness of idle thought is inspired by Sammi’s weekend challenge to share our thoughts on wool-gathering in exactly 36 words and Linda’s SoCS challenge.
And of course no ode to day dreaming would be complete without a shout-out to my favorite day dream believers.
Bearing Witness to the Folly of Man
we speed to the end
unaware of the magic
held in the moment
Thanks for the inspiration to Linda and her JusJoJan challenges!
And to No Facilities for the word prompt. I took some liberties and used “testify” as an idea (bearing witness) not the actual word.
Thanks also to Ronovan Writes for the words magic and man, which I morphed in to “we” (based on the assumption that man = human = we) because it sounded / felt like the right word.
lost in the stream
cathartic tears flow
memories lost in the stream
but forlorn no more
Thanks to FOWC and Enthralling Journey and JusJoJan host Linda for the inspiration.
I See Me
my mind full, spinning
dusty on the edges, but
shining with ideas
Today’s word prompt (self) for Linda’s JuJoJan Challenge was courtesy of But I Smile Anyway
Go! Visit them both!
The idea of self was obviously twirling around in my brain because when I saw Helen’s Photo Prompt I immediately thought–that reminds me of my brain! Always spinning around some great idea while my car keys get lost in the dusty cobwebs!
