for Laurence's Challenge 

for the Wake Up challenge 

This poem was written by my 8 yr. old grand daughter. I have not edited it, this is how she wrote it. I told her of you all and she wanted to see what you thought of this. Me, being the biased Grandpa, thought it was pretty good for an eight yr. old. 

For Oonah....don't know if this works, but wanted to try it. 

For the Dear "your name here" challenge 

Week 67 challenge. The book - The Mucker by Edgar Rice Burroughs. This is a great story. Very colorful language. The three words from the 3rd line of 3 different chapters... Grumblings - Lonely - Danger

For the Triolet Challenge - I made 2 versions. It is amazing how such a small change can alter the meaning and the feel of the work. 

week 81 challenge - recurrence 

week 68 ...the Treza Rima. i think i stuck to the form ok. Didn't get the pentameter, but I think I did manage some rhythm. This is more about the experience rather then the movie...but the last show I saw was called Blind Side.

Started as a challenge piece but I missed the deadline and the theme was a bit off the mark as well. So just a bit of fun is all. Hope it makes you smile. 

for the week 182 challenge 

A slightly dark tale. This is my first effort. Well, I have written other stuff, but this is the first one that is a real story AND that I am willing to share. I'm a new writer looking for advice and help. 

A bit of drabble for the week 215 challenge
