I love that it’s almost over, and I’ll miss it. I suppose it’s a bit like hiking the Grand Canyon: [tweetthis]Some of the hardest work I’ve ever done, and some of the most gratifying.[/tweetthis]
Today’s prompt:
write a poem based on things you remember. Try to focus on specific details, and don’t worry about whether the memories are of important events, or are connected to each other.

I remember a cube of black dirt left in the corner
I remember Christmas just behind me and January bleak
I remember six weeks of waiting before pleasure’s hint.

I remember the hope’s tiny pearl delivered.
I remember yesterday’s forest floor taste.
Tomorrow promises more.
