Gather Writing Essentials. Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

Use the following prompts:

Use a word that most readers would have to look up in the dictionary.

Reference a religious holiday

Write as 3rd person omniscient

A telephone needs to ring

Tag with WWE

Ring, ring,

Hello goes the telephone

Hands touch, grasp,

Crawl, feeble as they may for the vibration,

A stone cold hard reality

Of no one home.

Dive, survive, be alive,

Sweat, persevere, pledge to be near.

Christmas is nigh

Feel the bite, the release.

Proportionate to the cause.

We fly, we die,

We live again.

Angela A. Oct 28, 2009, 11:43pm EDT

Grok huh?

jJack Midknight Oct 29, 2009, 2:32am EDT

from "Stranger in a Strange Land" by Robert A. Heinlein

EXCELLENT book...

Angela A. Oct 30, 2009, 12:59am EDT

I've never read it. Thanks for the reference.

Sheila Deeth Nov 5, 2009, 1:06am EST

Been a while since I read grok. Thanks for the reminder.

Vern R. Nov 6, 2009, 1:56am EST

Is a very interesting book. Helped me with relaxation technique. Oh, yeah, a good story too.

Angela A. Nov 6, 2009, 3:18pm EST

Thanks Sheila and Vern for keeping the conversation going.

Marilyn is looking for whatever there is. N. Oct 29, 2009, 12:11am EDT

Hi Angela,

I like the way you did this, mostly because it's different and the last two lines really make you think. I was expecting all prose from this prompt, no idea why and here I find this, an unexpected gem!

Marilyn

Angela A. Oct 29, 2009, 12:20am EDT

Thanks hon, that means so much that you like it.

Vinod Sailes Oct 29, 2009, 4:30am EDT

Great Poem - but looks like the poet is quite amateur and is trying to apply her hands in to poems. But, well after watching various icons, this is good enough for a change. I feel the proof of the pudding lies in relishing your poetic lines.

Angela A. Oct 30, 2009, 1:00am EDT

Okay, I'm not sure if you're commenting me, or giving insults.
So, I'll just say thanks for coming by.

Vinod Sailes Oct 30, 2009, 1:55am EDT

I never insult anybody Angela. It is beautiful poem - superb. Though it is the first time I came by your poem.

Angela A. Oct 30, 2009, 11:58am EDT

Okay, thanks for the clarification.

Erin O'Riordan Nov 2, 2009, 7:01pm EST

This was a very demanding challenge, and you performed admirably, Angela.

Angela A. Nov 2, 2009, 10:25pm EST

Thank you, E.

Nice to see you give this prompt a twist in a different "medium."

Thanks for posting to Gather Writing Essentials.

Angela A. Oct 30, 2009, 1:01am EDT

Thanks, Susan, I just hope I did the prompt justice.

Love from Darlene! Oct 30, 2009, 8:52pm EDT

I enjoyed the prompt. Be encouraged to keep on writing.

Angela A. Oct 30, 2009, 9:56pm EDT

Thanks Darlene, I will.

Love from Darlene! Oct 31, 2009, 11:08am EDT

Angela, now that's the kind of confidence I love for a prompt writer to have.
Happy Halloween!

Angela A. Nov 1, 2009, 7:15pm EST

I just can't stop writing. I have stories that keep coming to me. I'm a writer indeed.

Erin O'Riordan Nov 2, 2009, 7:03pm EST

You're a natural.

Thank you for stopping by Joe Hinostro's page to give another fellow writer some encouragement, by the way.

Angela A. Nov 2, 2009, 10:26pm EST

Thanks.
It's no problem. He's great.
