Stories and Poems

Just my random writings

Nothing annoys me more than finding my pens without a cap on them. Or a chewed grip.

What type of journals do you keep? I currently have four I write in.

The first is a gray spiral notebook with a fox on it. My aunt sent it to me, a fox is like her spirit animal. She has them on almost everything. I use this as my life journal. I write small events and big ones I want to remember. I have taken to ripping out the days that have negative emotions. It helps me to put them on paper, but once they are there I no longer want to remember them.

I have a plain black one I recently started writing in. I'm trying to figure out a fantasy realm in it. It's coming along, there a lot of kinks in it and thankfully enough paper to work most of them out. Figuring out the rules of magic and what caused a curse that effects generations of families is a difficult task.

One has Shakespear on the front. In it I am writing a murder mystery. I've been working on it for years, the murder scene in it is probably my strongest writing. The rest of it is not falling into place. The binding on the book has nearly ripped out from all the abuse it has seen. I wont give up on the story even if the journal gives up on me.

And the last... dare I say I keep a sex journal? I dont know how that started but I have fun writing in it.

I'm homeschooling my kids this year. It's been a great refresher on things for me. Today my daughter had to do an acrostic poem for the word responsible. I did my own to help her out.

Ready to work

Education is important

Safety is to be taken seriously

Planning events

One moment at a time

Noticing bad behaviour

Start on it today

I vote

Be reasonable

Learn the laws

Even when it is hard do the right thing

It's my favorite time of the year again when the stores are selling sprite cranberry!

“What was I about to say?” she asked cluelessly.

“How on Earth am I supposed to know what you were going to say?” his voice full of annoyance.

Family games are great a plan until the four year gets pissed he has less Uno cards than the rest of us.

Who was Holly and what on earth did she do to Blink-182?

All the spoken lies,

There's truth in them now,

As my ears listen,

I see the truth and the lie.

Writing Prompt #1301

They stepped back, holding a weapon between them, voice shaking as they spoke. “You don’t get to tell me who I am. You don’t know me.”

“I could, if you let me.”

A blank page

It’s so empty

The lines are lonely

Open and waiting is the space

It has so much potential

The emptiness is almost threatening

Fill this page with anything

Put hurt and anger on it

Failure?

Maybe it was

Or maybe it was progress

Why not put a happy memory on it?

Tell the page all about that day in the park

Write about the green and yellows

Put anything on it

It’s no longer blank

Here I am on my bed again,

My head is anywhere but present,

I am far in the land of make believe,

A few know how to find me,

There’s one that can even come directly into that land,

He follows me sometimes.

The little girl ran with her kite flying behind her. Little did she know the wind was taking her hair for an even wilder ride than it was taking the kite.

Yesterday, my son screeched at my daughter like he was a banshee. It was a real power move and I want to try it on the next person that is creeping too close to me.

Angel wings flapped through the night air.

The sound was intoxicating to the listeners.

[evanora-coven]

Are you listening?

I’ve poured out my soul just now,

All those things I’ve never spoken before.

My secrets, I trusted them with you. 

Those were my darkest thoughts. 

I no longer want them.

Will you take them? 

I didn’t want those thoughts, 

Someone else put them in my head. 

Now I pass them to you. 

The one thing is,

I don’t think you were listening.

Infancy

What’s that?

It’s everywhere

There’s new all around me!

It’s perfect here

I am at peace

That is bright, you called it the sun

Water is clean and fun

How fascinating that is over there

All the things I can do

This is shiny, I’ll take it with me

My protector,  

He’s fierce

He keeps me safe

Nothing is going to go wrong with this,

Everything is always going to be this way.

Life will never be better than this here

Perfect!

I like this I will do it again

This is blue and I love it!

This is super-fast, I can make it slow though!

Those people they’re great

They adore me

How could they not? I am perfect.  

It’ll always be this way

Look what I can I have found

It’s new

Have you seen this?

Look at me!

It’s all about me!

Me!

I will do everything!

Show me how you did that!

I can do it now too!

Nothing is going to change  

I will always have this!

Every summer, I've been at my current place I've been woken up by the marching band in the morning. This year they aren't playing because of Covid. I miss them.
