Colleen’s Weekly Poetry challenge!It’s Tuesday, and that means Colleen’s Tanka Challenge! Of course, just providing a couple of words would be far too simple, so we have two words, yes, but we can’t use them! Only synonyms allowed!
I lie… it’s the beginning of the month so we have this as our prompt…
It’s the first of the month! Happy April! Choose your own words!
So, I have chosen spring and world.
Was feeling artistic so I decided to paint a picture to go with my Tanka, which makes it a bit of a Haiga too!
Video proof that I painted… taken by Lil Princess!
And the Haiga/Tanka
Spring has sprung
Flowers open their petals
And search for the sun
Blush pink blossons grace the trees
The world is waking once more

Linda’s #SoCS Prompt this week:
Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “dough/d’oh.” Use one, use both, use ’em any way you like. Enjoy!
D’oh! Gotta love Homer Simpson!
He’s given us the best reaction phrase for when you goof up!
And that Homer also loves donuts (or doughnuts as we should really spell it!)
Do you like doughnuts?

Charli’s prompt this week:
March 26, 2019, prompt: In 99 words (no more, no less) write a story that uses the word eminence. It’s a rich word full of different meanings. Explore how it sounds or how you might play with it. Go where the prompt leads!
Feeling Like A Fraud
“Jill, could you just glance over this, please?”
Nancy thrust a piece of paper in Jill’s hand.
“I’d really appreciate your opinion. Would you mind?”
“Sure, why not.”
Jill smiled and turned around, surreptitiously rolling her eyes.
Ever since her book had been released and had shot to the top ten in the charts, she’d been inundated with ‘friends’ who wanted her advice on their writing. It’s like her eminence in word craft meant she was now a fully-fledged expert.
But that was furthest from the truth.
All she’d done was write from the heart.
And readers had appreciated.
But I Smile Anyway...
