Stream of Consciousness Saturday: Dew, Due,Do.

This week our Linda of Life in progress is out signing books. So Dan Action of NoFacilities is standing in for her.

#SoCs

Now Dan’s prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “do/dew/due”. Use one, use two or use all three. If you start and end with two of them, you get bonus points. If you use all three AND start and end with two of them, you get Linda’s bonus points plus, I’ll match hers – from me to you. And, lest we all forget – Enjoy!

Well I thought why not combine the two. I have used Jane’s photo of her desk. A place for putting things but using a little poetic licence I have attempted a cinquain. The word count is not correct but the syllables are. Forgive I am learning.

You can join in both challengs I have enclosed the links above. So thanks to Colleen and Jane here is my effort.

Sue Vincent’s Thursday Photo Prompt: Signs

This week’s prompt from Sue Vincent of Daily Echo is Signs.

I wrote a Tanka then reversed the verse which though no longer a Tanka still flow and made sense… I hope.

The reverse idea comes from micketalbot

Bleached white by the sun

Killed by man alone

Why display this in your home

Well would you credit it, the museum of telephones and none of them work!
