Steph Abbott Says

Dramatic observations of life, love, & liberty.

Looking for flowers

Looking for flowers
Stepping up to, around
Conflict to find peace
Snapdragons (Antirrhinum majus)

I snapped this photo of flowers along my path today. Tonight, I wrote this haiku in response to this prompt: “What kinds of situations do I avoid?” It is the fifth in what I hope to be a series of 30 posts in honor of NaBloPoMo.

Special thanks to Eliza David Lady Writer, for sharing her writing prompts for NaBloPoMo. See her list of 30 prompts at http://elizadavid.com/nablopomo2020/.

    This is great, Steph! I’m a big haiku fan myself and I love how beautifully you’ve connected the topic to one of my coping mechanisms—going out for a walk and being in nature. Perfectly relevant to 2020. Cheers!
