It’s the fourth week of the month! Ken Gierke selected this month’s theme prompt. On the Monday before the next challenge, Colleen will select someone to choose next month’s theme. Have fun! Today’s words are.
“FINDING CLARITY”
This week I have written a Gogyoka.

As I crash through life
Missing chances
Breaking promises
Hoping always to discover
The one true light.

Thank you Sis 💜

It looks as though you found it…a UFO!
Good poem!
Feb 25, 2020 @ 09:36:53
Lol, that was sunset outside a cottage we were staying in ,in Wales last year. Hubby took me watching the sun set. Yes
Feb 25, 2020 @ 09:37:30
Yes it does look like a Huge UFO, I never noticed that 😎
Feb 25, 2020 @ 09:45:09
It does!
Feb 25, 2020 @ 09:53:04
How did I not see that before 💜 🤓
Feb 25, 2020 @ 10:22:55
You must have been seeing something else. A great tomorrow or something wonderful 🙂
Feb 25, 2020 @ 10:23:37
I was stunned by view 💜
Feb 25, 2020 @ 10:24:48
Must have been!
Feb 25, 2020 @ 10:25:50
Or perhaps I should of gone to Specsavers? 🤓
Feb 25, 2020 @ 11:33:09
No, it would have stopped you seeing the spaceship 🙂
Feb 25, 2020 @ 11:39:05
Lol, that’s the point I didn’t see the spaceship! 🤓
Feb 25, 2020 @ 12:59:27
Okay, go for the specs then 🙂
Feb 25, 2020 @ 13:01:09
Lol specs of light 💜

Willow, this is lovely. I can tell you are speaking from your heart! I love the UFO. LOL! ❤
Feb 25, 2020 @ 22:00:30
Thank you Colleen, you are right I do feel exactly like this. As for the UFO I didn’t even spot it until Jane pointed it out to me 💜
