Just to be.

Daily writing prompt
What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?

We are free to dream ; We are free to think,

Some of these prompts would turn you to drink,

To wish away the here and now,

Is life about making that big bow?

To hide your gifts under a bushel,

To refuse your teacher the tasty apple,

Perhaps we need just to see,

It’s more than enough just to be.

Namaste and Thank You for Reading.🙏

Silent Snoring

What’s a secret skill or ability you have or wish you had?

I wish I could secretly snore

My walrus grunts are such a bore

To lie on my back and sleep

A good night’s solid rest to reap

Instead of being woken up

“Turn over on your side” said so abrupt

I wake and cannot bear

The lonely walk down the stair

For once my dreams are broken

Sleep is a forlorn token,

I must read or sew or knit

Until my eyes say quit

Sleep downstairs now! As your walrus roar

Cannot be heard anymore.

Oh how I really do wish for

The benefit of the silent snore.
