Yesterday, I promised myself that I would take the time to read the Tuesday SOL's and write lots of comments. Whenever I read slices, I get writing ideas. This week was no exception. In Juliann's post, she included a link to another blogger's list of journaling prompts. The first prompt on this list spurred my thinking and I ended up writing a draft of a poem about writing comments.

You have caught the rhythm of reading the slices and commenting with your poem. You are so good at capturing the right touch for all your writing. Great poem!
ReplyDeleteYou've captured my thoughts, too, when I read the slices. It's so much fun, but there are other things to do, so I do what the poem says, read, comment, go . . . I enjoyed the variety of your words.
