The Write Stuff #3: Old Saying
For this assignment, incorporate an old or well-known saying (like a proverb, maxim, adage) into your poem or prose. To get your brain juices flowing, you can go here, here, or here for a list. You don’t have to use anything from these lists, but if you do, you can use any one you’d like, and place it anywhere you’d like within your writing. Here’s mine:
They say the early bird gets the worm. Please. They can have their squirmy worms. A late-riser, I feast on bagel bits, pretzels, chips, banana walnut muffin whits. I'm a fat pigeon sitting pretty in this city. How I pity those early birds.
And here are the fantabulous submissions for Haiku Season:
white blankets the ground
hushed whispers of silver leaves
fresh start, blank canvas- Andrea
Colours blend with grace
Music notes delight the soul
Enchanted vision
- Emma-Lu
Whoohoo writing!
