Journal entry:
After All
Aggravation comes
Like a rainy day pouring
Agony droplets
Into a life unrehearsed
Flowing evermore onward.
My smile returns like
A rainbow emerging out
Of gray falling mists,
I cannot remain angry
Because I am so blessed.
Jesus fills my life
With unending streams of joy
That refresh my soul
Making my days flower like
A beautiful fertile field.

I am grateful:
1. Alex says Laura will take care of his jury summons.
2. I woke to my alarm this morning.
3. Our drive into town was pleasurable.
4. Two of my photos placed in the contest last night.
5. My books, Where Do You Get Your Ideas? by Fred White and How To Blog A Book by Nina Amir arrived today.
This was a very good Friday for me, I hope you fared as well. Before you go to bed, I urge you to exercise your creativity. You can write a poem, a story, a journal entry, or draw, paint, or photograph a picture. You might even do something else, just make something original.
As a prompt, use the word unrehearsed in a poem, story, or journal entry. I know you can create something wonderful if you apply yourself to the task. If you use this prompt, please leave a link to your work in the comments below.
