It’s effervescence
Filling tides, inlets and coves
Bubbling like Champagne.

We are lucky here in England to have four definite seasons. Winter, Spring, Summer and Autumn. We know and expect our seasonal changes. I have put together some of my photos that show seasonal changes.

Seasonal.
The seasons come and go
Winters bleak with ice and snow
Spring like its name full of new life
Summer colours dress our country
Autumn brings fruitful bounty.

Welcome to the Daily 2023 Just Jot it January Prompt and the Stream of Consciousness Saturday prompt for SATURDAY, JANUARY 21st! It’s been a busy few days, but things promise to ease up a bit next week, so yay!
For those of you joining SoCS for the first time, it’s a little different than the other prompts in that it’s not always a whole or single word. If you’re joining in from JusJoJan, don’t want to write stream of consciousness style, no worries. It’s up to you! If you do want to try it, please check out the rules below. It’s fun! Here’s your Saturday prompt:
Your prompt for #JusJoJan the 21st and Stream of Consciousness Saturday is: “count on it.” Use the phrase “count on it” somewhere in your post. Enjoy!
After you’ve written your Saturday post tomorrow, please link it here at this week’s prompt page and check to make sure it’s here in the comments so others can find it and see your awesome post. Anyone can join in!
Count on it: a Nonet.
Dawn breaks and cracks as the sun rises
The pale moon chases her by night
That’s how it is, count, on it
Always tides ebb and flow
You can count on it
Spring leads Summer
Nature’s way
Count on
It

Overcome
I have been down and I have been out for the count, bruised and blooded.
Held down and shamed, out of work and out of sorts
But like the mushroom kept in the dark and fed shit I am determined and will overcome.

Welcome to a new year of writing syllabic poetry. Please read the rules, updated for the new year,2023 HERE.
Back by popular demand, our first poetry challenge of 2023 from Colleen Chesebro is to write your poem by selecting synonyms for the two words below. Do not use the two words—synonyms only.
This week I have chosen to write a Tanka.
New & Experience.
A novel feeling
An encounter with nature
Never before felt
Completely out of the blue
To be one with the ocean.
It is so lovely to have you back Colleen, to feel the warmth of our poetic family once more, here’s to 2023.💜💜💜💜

The New Year beckons. As young as she is, she holds the promise of new and exciting times.
Wrapped still in winter’s deathly cold, she meanders forth.
Yet underneath hope is preparing to bloom bright and new.

Gaia has given up her fruits and we gladly harvest them.
Like that first harvest it can be a life saver as days grow colder.
Let us all come together as one to thank Mother Earth.
