This is part of LindaGHill’s #SoCs.
Our Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is “critic(al).” Use it any way you’d like. Have fun!
Now it is critical that you understand that this sword held aloft here is not Excalibur. I have to say if I am critically on honest. The arm is too thick and masculine to belong to the lady of the lake. While I am being honest the sword itself looks too short and squat to be Excalibur.
Yet here we have an arm extended out of a lonely lake holding a sword aloft.
There is no magical island of Avalon, no Knights or damsels in distress. Just traffic bombing along a busy road, the other side of a wooden fence.
No just a critical Ruby sniffing around. Please don’t be a critic it might not be perfect but it was a lovely walk.
A Critical Acrostic Poem
Can you honestly say it’s the best
Rigourously, honestly the best
Is it truly the best you can do
To be honest I am not impressed
In my opinion, it is not good
Critically honest it’s not all that .
Actually be honest it’s rubbish
Look, don’t blame me, the critic.

Female, wife, full time mother and Grandmother. I am not as happy go lucky as I used to be but I am still bubbling along on simmer! I have three handsome sons all grown and flown.The youngest married with a beautiful wife and two sons of his own. Back in 2010 I was working, running a home, driving and socializing then bang in a split second all that was gone. I had an accident at home. I broke my back, not for the first time, I had broken it 10 years previously as well. Unfortunately this time I had broken it really badly and it was truly messed up so I had to have two operations. I was told before each operation that the outcome could mean I spend the rest of my life in a wheelchair. Still as some guy once wrote "I am still standing " yes "better than I ever was " I no longer use the walking stick . I had lots of friends before the accident but when things like this happen, you loose most of them. Their lives move on and mine stood still and so they left me behind ...I know that is just the way life is but it hurt and always will. Then I looked around and saw those who were still there for me, these friends are the roses in my garden they need to be tended well. They are the diamonds in the dust. I will of been married 53yrs this comming year. I have found different ways to approach life, use my pain befriend it almost...yer right , well that is what they tell me at the pain clinic ROFLMAO ...... if only I could! I have found an outlet for my fears, frustrations and night terrors . I have started writing poetry if that name can be applied to my writing. I hope I do not come over as a moaning winger. I hope I am past all that. I also hope that you might see how the poetry is moving from very dark through the grey and hopefully in to light.
My back is no longer straight it is C shaped because of the injury and I have lost two and a half inches in height but my Pilates and Core teachers have helped me to stand up as straight and be as strong as possible. Pain and depression are still hanging on my arm but I have weapons to use against them and if I say so myself I cope well.
I have made lots of new friends, real diamonds. I am also very grateful for all the support and help I have encountered here on Wordpress. Hugs and welcome to everyone who visits.

He he! Very good sis 💜
Thank you Sis 💜
Looks like a nice peaceful trail to walk! Too about what is on the other side of the fence. Love the touch about the sword.
It is a very pretty place 💜
Beautiful pictures. No critic here. That walk seems perfect to me.
😀
Lovely walk! I especially like the path through the trees. (Maybe because Ruby is there. 😊❤️❤️)
She is 💜💜💜
A most unusual take, Willow. Well done.
Thank you Robbie 💜💜
Is it a real place with the sword? It’s very interesting. I like doing acrostic poem. Yours is nicely done, Willow.
Yes it a real place but the hand and sword are just a work of art. Someone must of just decided to give the place some mystic.💜
It surely got some attention. ❤
Yes indeed , it’s rather good isn’t it 💜
I agree, Willow. ❤
