Here we go again! I'm behind the wheel & being dangerous in the curves - but I promise that you'll all arrive safely. Really!
It's Valentine's Day (or it will be on Monday - stop being so technical!), but you don't have to write any love sonnets or Conversation Heart verses. Unless you want to - go for it if that's what's on your mind. I'm listing three different picture prompts below which should hopefully stir some creative juices. I'm sorry that it's on the heels of last week's picture prompt, but not sorry enough to change it.
1. Our neighbors took this picture of the driveway across the street last week. What do you think is going on here? Make up a story about it!
2. Dr. M took this picture of furniture in the cornfield. Now that seemed extra odd to me. I supposed that perhaps a frigid tête-à-tête was going on. What do you think?
3. A closeup of the chair - I'm not sure why this icy furniture has grabbed my attention, but I would love to see what you have to say about it.
After you post your poem come back here & let me know & I'll post the link on this post. Good luck!
Here are our most excellent passengers:
Hmmm...got to dash this morning to bible study, but may give this a go later in the day!
