Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done.

Daily writing prompt

I have postponed a chapbook a few times. There is no hurry though. Our previous book, Quiet Christmas Poetry, began as a blog and then became a large print chapbook in 2014. The book is still shared and read.

I read and view blogs – poetry, prose, and other art. Print books and poetry journals as well. And I cook simple meals and watch the seasons from the kitchen window. I create new posts and write new poems. Music – many things add beauty to my days. Thank you.
