Boundless Fortune

Today is a good
Day to declare your complete
Independence from
All fear limiting the use
Of your creativity.

Your ability
To accomplish all your dreams
Is greater than you
Imagine; an infinite
Set of possibilities.

Your talents are great
Requiring you faithfully
Explore many gifts
Fully enabled within
You for finishing your work.

No random fate is
Involved in the fulfilling
Of your destiny,
You have a more outstanding
Purpose in your life on Earth.

Go forward with joy
Making a lovely future
For yourself and those
Whose lives you impact along
Your interesting journey.

I am grateful:

1.   I live in the United States of America.
2.   God has blessed me with many gifts.
3.   I am able to work creatively.
4.   It is not quite as hot as it has been.
5.   I am free.

I hope you are enjoying the Fourth of July. It is a great day to pursue some creative endeavor. You are uniquely gifted to bring your vision to life in our world. Whatever you create has much worth and can influence others to try their own work.

If you need a prompt today write about independence or draw a representation of it. Your freedom is precious, celebrate it. If you use this prompt, please leave a link to your work so we can read your creation.

I hope you enjoyed this entry. Please leave a comment sharing your thoughts. Thank you so much for visiting my blog, and be sure to come again.

Always,
Jo Ann

Forward Strides

One word connected
To others making meaning
Completes a fine line
Eventually leading
To a poem, story, or book.

One line continued
Across a brand new canvas
Joins others to bring
A vision into focus
Creating finished artwork.

Any dollar saved
Can surely be built upon
To finally lead
To a purchase for which one
Has long wished and much desired.

One person can help
Another to accomplish
Something larger than
Either of them can finish
Or yet hope to do alone.

Dreams are realized
When our creativity
Is harnessed to will
Fueled by proclivity
To ultimate completion.

I am grateful:

1.   I woke up early.
2.   Mom was able to go out with her best friend, June.
3.   I vacuumed the house.
4.   I listened to some music loud.
5.   Some of my dreams have come true.

It is a beautiful Thursday here, and I hope your day has been good. If you have not already created something, do it now. Put your imagination to work and make something that enriches your world. You have the tools you need, so get busy. You brain is forever on call.

If you need a prompt, do as I did and write about dreams. You can be specific or general. If you don’t believe dreams can come true write about your reasoning… Let your heart lead you wherever it desires. I would love to see what you wrote, so leave a link to your work in the comments below.

If anything has made you think or encouraged you today, please leave a comment. If there is something you would like me to write about let me know and I will try to oblige.

Always,
Jo Ann

Explanation

My mind fields do not
Lie fallow under bright light
Of close inspection,
They are planted fully well
With such acute construction.

Concepts grow strong free
Undaunted by strangling weeds
Of dark repression,
Words crop up that with great force
Contend for their expression.

My explosive thoughts
Lie buried near the surface
Where interjection
Will have the most positive
Effect without a question.

Words are my weapons
To conquer the negatives
The opposition
Presents to overcome all
My thoughts on exposition.

I fight the good fight
If only within my mind
To decommission
Everything that leads toward
Creative prohibition.

I am grateful:

1.   I got up early this morning.
2.   I wrote a poem without a prompt.
3.   Mom got up with me.
4.   There is much beauty here on our property.
5.   I enjoy exploring my creativity.

It is a beautiful Friday here. I hope your day is enjoyable. Get your camera out and take some pictures, write a poem or story, journal, draw or paint something… You get the idea, I want you to do something creative. I know you can because you are at least as gifted as I am. It does not have to be perfect, just make the effort, practice will lead to improvement. Every day gives you an opportunity to exercise your creative license.

I would love to read your comments…

Always,
Jo Ann
