#WriteAroundtheCorner
For those who missed the meeting, or anyone who would like to revisit:
#1. The Voice
Laurie read this poem by Shel Silverstein from his book :
Falling Up
#2. Imaginary Descriptions.
We came up with our own definitions for these words:
absquatulate
gwenders
nudiustertian
( I have put the actual definitions at the bottom of this page.)
#3. Advice
Laurie shared this poem written by Heather Davis. We then wrote our own advice pieces.
#4 List things in your home that are important to you.
#5. Choose one of the things on the list and write a micro-memoir.
The definitions for the words in #2:
absquatulate -- to leave abruptly
gwenders -- a disagreeable tingling sensation caused by cold
nudiustertian -- not comparable, rare, obsolete
I have made a commitment to three things: finding time for Blue Space (beach, sky), Green Space (earth, woods), and the responses I have to poets & writers. I seek to discover the art of being.
