  1. Flying
    The Rocket ship
    Wild imagination
    Through the ether to far off lands
    Wormholes
    Bring us to our destination
    See rocks, stars, old blue moons
    Lonely Planets
    Then home

  2. Sniff
    Baking
    Cookie smell
    Grandma's cooking
    Unmistakable -
    Rich tantalising scents
    Resistance impossible
    Heaven - a moment on that tray
    Fingers poised, waiting for approval
    Once we have seized the day, all that's left - crumbs!

  3. So far today we have three offerings for the prompt word "mark" in the #wss366 hashtag--one by @stevendbrewer, one by @extraspecialbitter, and one by me.

    The night is but young ... still plenty of time to make YOUR mark! #microfiction #micropoems #prompt #writinglife

  4. Well I missed posting and boosting for yesterday's #wss366 word, "grave" (but check out the hashtag--we had good participation from @kalloway , @extraspecialbitter, @tobadzistsini , and @stevendbrewer ) and we're onto today, with "bow"! Already stories and poems in the hashtag from the same gang, and I'm going to try to join in, maybe with something with both "bow" and "grave," muahahahaha! #microfiction #micropoems

  5. "Forty-five Degrees"

    She said she’d rendezvous with me
    Just when the shadow of the tree
    In length is equal to its height.
    Halfway between high noon and night
    My heart was heavy, head was hot.
    Just then, I had a flashing thought
    Of mirrored shadows, crisp and cool,
    In clear mid-morning. What a fool!

  6. Riddle (revised):

    The moments after I begin
    Are signals of my origin
    Recorded in the starry sky.
    They’re distant and detected by
    Your instruments of observation
    As cosmic background radiation
    And patent evidence of the
    Initial singularity.

    What am I?

  7. Next doors
    Shouty morning
    Where's my socks, toast is burnt
    Your trainers? same place you left em
    Argh mum
    Slam of front door, they're late leaving
    Morning melee soon fades
    Soon be evening
    School daze

  8. The electric buzz of cicadas
    A summer morning symphony
    From natures wild orchestra
    Hungry birds, honey bees
    Spoiled by urban sounds
    Ofbeat hoovers
    Power drills
    Idling
    Bus
