2026 PAD Challenge Day 6
okay I set up the prompts and I already did this one once because it was stuck in my head but I really am trying to do the pad challenge using the Fae Corps Publishing prompts so …
my response is :
daisy chains
tied us together
in flowers and paper
childhood memories
tree trimmings
and moments in the world
each one precious
each one unique
a chance to be
young eternally
2026 PAD Challenge Day 5
my response is:
all knowledge began
with the blank page,
a pen at the ready,
and oral tradition
ready to be written down.
without the blank page
the oral tradition dies
when the last storyteller
died without passing it on.
how much knowledge was forgotten
for the want of ink and paper,
or because the book was then burned?

my answer to the prompt:
Forgotten Knowledge
is so easily found
in old books and dust
the old knowledge
stored in libraries
oft forgotten
I don’t often talk about my poetry, preferring to leave the interpretation to the reader. However, This one hurt. writing it was the most painful piece I have ever done. The piece that inspired it was posted by a friend on Facebook. and I shall post it here so I am not alone.
Pablo Neruda was an Amazing poet. It hurts that his words still echo even though time should have rendered a softness to them.
