A memory unfolding off the corner of the lips –

a smile, unveiled, in the eyes, and then slips

for #mastoprompt

A spark

a small light in the dark

a sudden mark scratched in secret writing

a part of us, the poet in us, who’s always hiding

for #mastoprompt

A symphony in a minor key shuffles in on wooden floor in bare feet: gently softly discreet

for #mastoprompt

Another surprise: not a cloud in the sky, then it happens to us again – the light falling of summer rain

for #mastoprompt

We don’t want to write about fight; Heavens above! We need to write about love

for #mastoprompt

On the pasture of the family farm, on the hill in our small town, the two of us watched the expansive horizon that August night, the summer before I went south and you stayed put, where multitudes of lightning strikes danced across the sky, the night's electricity like a postcard moment

#mastoprompt

At the edge of night, you allow me a listen to the dancing beat - the rhythmic heat - of your beautiful heart

(H) ow we become (O) f this moment: (P) erceptive and (E) ngaged

for #mastoprompt

Know nothing for certain

Keep your mind open as a caring person

for the world is alway on the cusp of a constant blurring

for #mastoprompt

Sometimes, to ascend, we bend our bodies as much as words, our voices above the atmosphere, shouting to be heard
