Life has been a little upside down around here lately! New job for Bryan with training in town, Pepper leaving on a business trip next week, a few family issues to contend with. And a whole lot of tiredness plaguing all of us!
Bryan brother Kris is sweet sixteen...well he really is a sweetie just like his big brother! Seriously he's such a neat kid he wouldn't even mind me jesting about him being sweet sixteen. Yes one in a million this guy! We managed an open mike night at a coffee shop on Wednesday, then Bryan serenaded us on the beach, sort of a last hooray to summer!
I can't show my mouth because there is lipstick all over my front teeth....or maybe I should for a laugh. Nope I tried....I just can't! How ridiculous is that?Sunday Scribblings prompt is "Writing"! This is my contribution for this week!
I started a blog out of whim
To practice linguistic
To purge things within
Writing frenetically
As a legacy
Future generations may heed
Not particularly for anyone
To presently read
Soon readers trickled in
Scantly at first
As they jumped on board
I tried to become better versed
Soon the challenge
Moved beyond my dimension
Increasing awareness
Of things that I’d mention
Additional readers arrived
Some left a comment or two
Others with only lurking in store
A diverse influx of people
I’d not met before
I’d written about everything
Family, friends and my follies
Even a dear Child passing
The loss of my pet,
Sorrows I’ve endured
A history rehashing
My life laid out for the world to see
Still holding back
Certain aspects of me
So much scripting
Bursts at my seems
Some in story, in rhyming
Poetry, in themes
A romance I’ve indulged
Feverishly engaged
To Language and art
Exuding type once caged
Some irrelevant to the masses
Often my opinion’s unique
Still I ramble on
Hoping your passion is tweaked
If you can gain a wisp of insight
By my life
It’s a victory for me
Either way,
My soul Insists
That I write!

The kids look so happy and playful. I loved your poem because it matches my own writing journey. I don't feel bad now for being MIA for this weeks SS. I did my "E" and stole this song but gave you credit on the title. lol

You captured your blog writing experience so well - great take on the writing prompt!
Looks like everyone's having a great time in those photos - I had to laugh about the lipstick on the teeth, I do that all too often myself. Still it gave you a chance to showcase your lovely eyes in the photo!
Blogging is a fine thing! I enjoyed your post and the pictures, as well.
