Greetings,
dear poets and storytellers. I hope you are having the best day you can have. I
hope you find a reason (or three) to smile. I hope your smiles
are answered in kind. And since March is National Nutrition Month (in the USA), I also hope we
all find healthy ways to nourish our guts and spirits.
“One cannot
think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.” — Virginia
Woolf
“You make us cry without hurting us.
“You make us cry without hurting us.
I have praised
everything that exists,
but to me,
onion, you are
more beautiful
than a bird
of dazzling
feathers”
— Pablo Neruda
“Laughter is
brightest, in the place where the food is.” — Irish proverb
Announcements
and Reminders:
- if you’ve yet to read Wild Fridays #10: Thought Provokers,
I recommend you follow the link and give the feature a go. Our Rosemary shared “In a Time of Peace”, by Ilya
Kaminsky, a poem that left me gasping with knowing, with remembering. I wonder
what it would do for you.
- this coming Wednesday, for the 11th
Weekly Scribblings: “Hypophora and all that”, Sanaa invites us “to write
using the literary device ‘Hypophora’” (a
figure of speech in which the speaker poses a question and then answers the
question *follow this link for
more*).
The Writers’ Pantry is an open link event. So, let
your contribution be poetry or prose, fiction or nonfiction, old or new, short
or long(ish)… If you choose to write prose, it should be 369 words or fewer.
One entry per participant, please. Let us taste each other’s words (words can be rather nutritious, I’ve
been told *cough, cough… cough*). Mr. Linky will stay hungry until
next Sunday.
