About This Author
My name is Joy, and I love to write. Why poetry, here? Because poetry uplifts its writer, and if she is lucky enough, her readers, too. Around us, so many objects abound to write about. Once a poet starts with a smallest, most trivial object, he shall discover that his pen will spill out what is most delicate or most majestic hidden inside him. Since the classics sometimes dealt with lofty subjects with a lofty language, a person with poetry in his soul may incline to emulate that. That is understandable. Poetry does that to a person: it enlarges the soul and gives it wings. Yet, to really soar, a poet needs to take off from the ground. Kiya's gift. I love it!

Restrictions: None
Seasonal Change
Prompt:
Write about some activities you're excited trying with the season change? Flower beds, veggies, sitting outside with a book? Just some fodder to consider.


-----

Excited? At my age or rather during my very own seasonal change, too much excitement is kept out of my prescriptions. I can now just sit outside on the porch with a book, and since part of the porch is covered I can even sit there and watch the rain.

Of course, I could also be excited about spring cleaning. I could open up all the windows, let in some fresh air, and get rid of the winter clutter that's been accumulating. Nope, this one is postponed now, with one of my sons in the middle of his moving and his things being scattered all over the place.

As to gardening, that too is a thing of the past, and don't even mention travel. A drive to the local Publix or to doctors' appointments is travel enough for me. As to the sports, let alone doing them, I don't even watch them anymore. A short walk may be in the works, but not a brisk one. Brisk ones are too fast for me.

What I do or can't do, the most important think is to enjoy March and April, for the world is a beautiful place and each moment is the best time to explore it...only just my way. *Wink*
