Thanks for the gorgeous pictures, Margaret. There are several prompts this month that I want to return to but you have given an excellent choice too. Decisions, decisions!
Thank you, Margaret! Happy Sunday to all in the garden today!
I am catching up today and may do all three prompts. I will understand if you do not feel the need to comment on all of them - it is more for my own personal challenge to complete the 30 poems in 30 days (I'm only on 24).
The second link does reveal the face of my newest pup, for those who would like to see her.
:-)
I've been in love with Georgia O'Keeffe for many years. It's nice to be given an opportunity to say so.
I'm behind too, Kerry! Must catch up today.
That alphabet challenge!!! Hahaha! Okay I am doing that with my kids today. Will post what we come up with.
Thank you Margaret!
A great sampling, Margaret. I loved Kerry's envelope challenge the first time, and have gone back to it. I have a full day of gardening ahead now as storms are headed in for later, but will be back to visit this evening.
Hello everyone,
Hope you all are having a wonderful Sunday :D Sharing my poem fortune cookie.
I chose the first option which was imagined by Ella. (Play it again Toads)
Thanks Margaret for this splendid opportunity :D
Lots of love,
Sanaa
I had fun with today's challenge. Thank you for the idea!
Since I will not do the 30 poems... I had to do 30 sonnets instead.. Thankful for the extensive library, I found one by Kenia on tercets, so my Terza Rima rhyme scheme fitted well..
I should know to stay away from intricate form poetry, but I still can't! Thanks for forcing (well, I know you didn't really) my hand in this! Excellent prompt!
Margaret, I married the "hills are alive with the Sound of Music" ladies with Marian's ABC prompt. Too much fun. I knew exactly what the story was when I saw the image!! Love to all, Amy
Beautiful artwork Margaret. Thanks for the challenge.
Thank you all for such an awesome response - I have read most on my iPhone but will wait for the morning to respond on my computer -so much easier for me to type. I might add mine late - Monday - this NaPoWriMo is far too swift for me this year.
The art is stunning~ I went in a different direction than planned~
Thank you, for this gorgeous challenge! So, vibrant and beautiful~
Hey Margaret thanks--great art--I made my own illustration as I am so tired I had to go with poem that occurred to me in thinking of the envelope rhyme, which I chose to do. So some lines came to mine and I just went with those. Thanks for the choices of prompts--they were all great ones. k.
