takes but one misstep to reset trajectory wonder what awaits

The Daily Post daily prompt: Misstep

Before they move on
to adorn a home, or
add warmth to a sanctuary, or
brighten what might be
an otherwise drab view;
before they move on
to the employ of others,
they are mine to define and
to quietly reflect upon in the
peaceful solitude
of my own little shop.

signal light turns green tells me it’s time to move on to where I don’t know

Blogging U. Day Two: Street

I’m so thankful for the screen on the window.
I don’t want you invading my living space.
I know you’re part of the ecosystem and all that,
but truth be told, you really creep me out.
I mean, really creep me out.
As in, whenever I see one of you
I just want to squish you, even if
you are doing me no harm whatsoever.
But I guess I should be more magnanimous than that.
Live and let live, you know?
After all, it was you who planted the corn
that I’m going to nibble on for breakfast.
Here’s hopping that you don’t find your way
through the screen today.

The Daily Post’s weekly photo challenge: Harmony

Leap over obstacles
that stand between you and
the fulfillment of your dreams.
Leap away from those
who prey upon your soul,
depleting your spirit of joy.
Leap into challenges
that strengthen your character and
hone your ability for resilience.
Leap for joy
or love
or peace
or delight
Leap simply
because you can.
