Saturday Thoughts

This is my work in progress list… and how I keep track of my word count.

well I managed to get through the pad challenge. and as you can see I finished the Love themed volume.

this will be the next volume for love poetry. (some themes I feel like I need to keep a volume for.)

I had hoped Serena would be able to to bbe done with her volume by now but she still has 3 poems left to do. that’s probably going to be done by next week so I am sharing her next volume as well.

I only left kissed by Verse so you could see it was done. I will probably not have it or crypts secrets on here next week.

while I would like to plan on the poll for my nect volume I believe that will be after my surgery.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 30

my response is :

in my memory
I am always here 
walking through the
ruins of yesterday,
wondering what I 
could have done 
differently.

seeing the broken beauty 
and knowing that I created 
all of this madness and 
masterpiece, I wonder
if my life is but a mirror 
to forgotten things 
I need to remember.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 28

my response is :

childhood moments,
so easily forgotten,
skipping river rocks
just for the fun.

making popcorn chains
to throw about recklessly,
hoarding laughter like 
the treasure it is.

mu response is :

once upon a time
people believed 
that the divine 
was represented 
in the mother.

so mother became 
the name of God
for so many.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 26

my response is :

today my brain is so foggy
that I feel as if I am playing 
solitaire with a deck of 28 cards....
I have forgotten all I need to know

I want to remember,
I really do,
but in the moment 
all I find is myself confused..

my response is :

small doses of kindness
is simply a way to show 
the world there is love 
still in your heart .

treat others as you 
would want to be 
treated.

that is the best
way for anyone
to live.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 24

My response is :

faeries are born
from the laughter
of newborn babies,
or so we are told.

but I believe that 
Banshee are made
from forgotten hugs
when loved ones pass.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 23

My response is :

when I thought  
I had forgotten
how to fly,
and it hurt so much 
all I could do is cry...

when I realized the wing
was broken and laying loosely
I determined that i must 
fly anyways.

2026 PAD Challenge Day 22

my response is :

memories from long forgotten places,
I find myself watching it from a distance 
as though I am stuck in a repetitive
dream without any way out.

drifting into something resembling 
an active dream of poetry 
and possibility

2026 PAD Challenge Day 21

my response is :

when trying to describe
who I am and who I am not
the ink is limited.

there is no clarity
in the darkness
of the ink pot,
even as it empties.
