Greetings, dear Toads. I hope your day is dancing with words
and wonder. I have been doing a lot of editing these last few weeks. And as I
reread my work, many lines have stayed with me… whispering to the muse, asking to be written into more.
Today’s prompt sprouted out of those thoughts. I invite you
to write a new poem that begins with a line out of your own words. The line can
come from a poem, a story, a blog entry, a social media post… Origin doesn’t
matter, as long as the words belong to you, and you have published them on a
public platform before today. Please add a link to the piece that birthed the
line.

Happiest Saturday, my dear Toads. I can't wait to see what you has sprouted out of your own words... ;-)
Loved the prompt, Magaly❤️ I chose to recreate the magic of 'Looking for a reason' ..which in turn brought a lot of cherished memories. Happy Weekend, everyone!❤️
Luv this prompt, nice art too; will be back to link in
much love..
An excellent prompt. We need to give more weight to our own words and yes, to recycle some of the lines! thank you.
@Sanaa and Gillena, I am so glad you enjoyed the prompt. I've delighted in your contributions.
@Toni, Who better than us to continue nurturing our words, right? :-)
I think that this prompt will be fun, Magaly. But I hurried through it and don't really like what I finished with. I may change out tomorrow. It will be interesting to see what the others come up with.

Sorry, I have nothing to offer but my support.
Thank you, Magaly.
I have done kind of a variation, Magaly. Thanks for cool prompt. k.
I saw the light, a small one and mellowed my writing.
Sorry for putting those who read worse and thanks for
tolerating me.

I'm a bit late coming to this superb prompt, so I won't read until I've posted. I'm still deciding which line to choose...
Awesome prompt Magaly...I love it!!
Cool prompt, kiddo. I managed to churn forth a few awkward lines. My Muse is on summer vacation, but I figure she has earned a rest, lol.
I revisited an old poem and wrote a new direction. Thanks for the inspiration!!
@Jim, No need for apologies. We are living hard days, and it shows in the words. We have to let it out somehow, don't we?
@Martin, Your support is appreciated. Always. I shall go surfing around your cyber-home to see what's brewing. ;)
@K, The eyes in your painting are still so vivid in my mind. I really like what you did...
@Kim, I've been a tad late making rounds myself (I'm packing for vacation), so the lateness was nearly appreciated, lol! And I LOVE your leaf.
@Carrie, Thank you for dancing with me!
@Sherry, What is this "awkward" you speak of? I completely adore your poem.
@Susie, I'm still enchanted by your lock. I shall send the link to a friend.
Returned from my vacation and playing catch up. Wrote to Out of Standard and will write to this for the Tuesday Platform most likely. Will be posting late - but thanks for the prompt. :)
Margaret, you just ended your vacation and I just started mine. So, we shall both be playing catch up. I'm very bad at altering my rituals, so even on vacation I need to write when I wake up and read what others have written before going to be. I shall read you later tonight. :-)
Everyone, thanks sooo much for your words!
