[Daily Prompt] May 30 – The Lake At Dusk
Today’s prompt is a stanza from “The Lake At Dusk” by Robin Robertson (from Swithering, Harcourt 2006)
Rinsed after the rain,
The forest is triggered and tripwired;
When I pause for a bird call
The silence takes time
To reassemble around me
Like a dream retrieved.
No-one will find me here.
Go!
[Daily Prompt] May 29 – Don’t!

Man Overboard.

It’s that time of year again.
I spent the evening watching my kindergartener receive a certificate and getting ready to move into First Grade. He’s already been at the same school for three years, and is moving on to…the same school, but next time in 1st Grade.
Still, it was an ending, a moment of transition, a biggish deal (mainly because the grown-ups made it that way).
So today’s prompt is:
Write a story that contains a transition, an ending or a new beginning.
Go!
