Hibernation Inspiration #3

Ideas on themes of 'nature' and 'springtime'.


Hello again! What have you been creating? Any good ideas to share? I'm having fun compiling some simple poems about nature and things I can see from the windows of our home.

I was thinking today of perhaps a story, compiled of a series of poems, that could all link together? If you give it a go, let me know how you get on.


'Sun peeps through leaves on the trees.
The church bell peels through the warm afternoon air.
Spring bulbs bob their dainty heads upon the gentle breeze.
A child's hair flies wild as they bounce over green grass,
Cries of joy and excited screams fill the park,
As bikes and skateboards go flying past.'

Hibernation Inspiration #2

More observations on the themes of 'hibernation' and 'emergence' - some Spring things to inspire ideas!


Another week and another morsel of inspiration from my personal photo collection and an observational poem. I'm sure many of you will be able to do better justice to poetry - so have a go!

Try some Haiku or flash fiction. Begin a new story and see where it leads you. Above all - have fun with words.


'What are the words,
Exchanged between birds?
What do they say to one another?
Do pigeons coo of love?
Do robins tweet of the sun above?
Do blackbirds chirp when tugging worms are a bother?
Who is the crow cawing to?
Where to the swallows fly from and to?
Do baby birds fight with their brothers?'
