52 Lists: Week 17--Creativity/Inspiration

Just check Amazon or your local book seller and you will find an endless barrage of

BOOKS

on creativity, inspiration, finding one's passion, how-to's, following one's North Star, etc. etc. etc.

Easily there must be a book a day published addressing this  topic.

Week 17 on Kellie's "Get the Word Out" asks us how we personally stay inspired, what sparks our own creativity?

Honestly, I have nothing astonishingly  NEW to add to the subject.

But I will share a few sassy thoughts!!!!

That is all folks...easy peasy...
and if you run out of your own inspiration, remember that there are more books on creativity than a boat load of Peanut M & M's!!!!

52 Weeks: What Will You Miss About Summer?

YES, I see the slanted light

filtering through the trees

a warmer yellow

tinged with orange

YES, I see the sunflowers

stooped with age

dropping their seeds 

like raindrops

YES, I feel a subtle drop in 

the temperature

BUT

no sweaters yet 

YES, I see stores filled,

virtual waterfalls of school supplies

waiting a place

in a shiny new back pack.

But NO, summer can't just drift away like that.

 

There is so much to miss about SUMMER

but we aren't there YET!

Toss those shoes aside and run through the grass.

52 Lists Week 9

Linking up with Kellie again at  Get the words out.  This week's topic is: what we are looking forward to. Well that could imply-- within the next hour, like leaving for a baby shower; tomorrow having family over for dinner; future dates, celebrating Labor Day with family; or more serious lists like World Hunger,  Women's Rights, Political Concerns.

So my little list is a hodge-podge of the trivial to more cerebral .

What is fun about this exercise is coming up with a way to PRESENT ONE'S LIST. If you go to the website you will see a huge variety of list-making.

Today's list was done on ledger paper stained with walnut ink and script with an old bamboo pen like van Gogh used for sketching. I obviously don't have a sharp enough nib nor the control of a van Gogh, but it is MESSY FUN!  Enjoy. You might like to join the group. It is easy-peasy.

Hmm number 7 happened first. Obviously I needed to FLATTEN the M&M sack before scanning. Sorry I didn't leave you any!

52 Lists: Week 8

 

 Ways to be a Good Companion.

 
Friendships enrich our lives. Friendships hold our hands when sorrow crosses our path. Friendships teach us about sharing and caring.

I love this prompt from 52 Lists.
