vernal equinox
primordial ooze
swells with new life, emerging
seed to root to shoot
to bloom, serenaded by
bird trills and honey bee hums

Thank you. It’s starting to look a little like spring with a few dips in the temperature. Soon I’ll be complaining about the heat!!! 🤣

I use an app on my phone called PicsArt. I used to use photoshop. This is so much easier!

Ohhh you’re a smart-phone person! I don’t have apps, etc–and I kind of use my low-income status as an excuse to not have to acquire and learn more technology 🙂 I do have an easy to use program on my laptop, so I’m well satisfied when I feel like doing something a big fancy 🙂

I actually write mostly on my phone. Except for Twittering Tales which requires a lot of cut and paste and two screens open. 😊

It’s convenient. That way when inspiration strikes I’m able to jot a few notes and finish it when I get a break.
