A new blog to contain answers to prompts

Since my old blog "Everyday Canvas " became overfilled, here's a new one. This new blog item will continue answering prompts, the same as the old one.

Cool water cascading to low ground
To spread good will and hope all around.

In response to "On "No Response""

I agree with Ichabod Crane-writing-reading.

some questions are an attempt to bully or provoke a situation.

I'm with you, I prefer to walk away rather than be put in any situation that involves being cruel to another.

Sometimes the questions are to provoke, rather than increase knowledge.

In response to "Why April?"

As a disabled person, now retired, I can honestly say I have never had to fill in a tax return. I wish I had the luxury of sufficient income at some point in my lifetime to have that necessity.

In response to "Why April?"

April has some special characteristics, like the other months. The blogger dislikes this month due to the income tax return. He has to labour too much for arranging all the necessary documents. It is a hectic schedule. The IRS system is a better option. But it can be costly.

In response to "Why April?"

I wish there was no IRS but I do realize it's a necessary evil. Like you I hate having to compile everything.

Eliot's poem is a stark reminder for me of what man is capable of doing.

In response to "Stranded?"

"As it is, I am used to talking to myself and to wild life." Me too!

Though I never had deer watch tv with me, like Lyn.

I have had hummingbirds hang out on my shoulder and hat.

I am so glad

you, too, talk to the animals. I mean house cats and other pets, everyone does (I think), anyway. But the wildlife that isn't tamed is another story.

In response to "Stranded?"

I talk to the hummingbirds and they've grown used to it. They hover around me and chatter like they're telling me something. They chatter with Pumpkin to when he's in the enclosure. The finches are a bit more guarded they land on the top of the trampoline and watch me as I talk to them. Once in a while one will sing back.

In Maine, the deer used to come to my living room window and watch television with me. I began talking with them and their ears would flicker. They were very happy when I started putting apple chunks in the window box so they could snack while watching television.

I've done a weel totally by myself camping by the 7th day I was so ready for civilization.

In response to "Real Robins"

The Secret Garden is a brilliant book and film

And Robins are so cute, I have one who comes to my balcony looking for crumbs

No More Blank Page!

Prompt:
Use these words in your entry: blank, margin, definition, startle, maneuver, roads, and click.

--------

No More Blank Page!

I sit at my desk relaxed, since I'm in no rush
but a *blank page waits in a *margin's hush

then suddenly I *startle, my thoughts take flight
I swiftly *maneuver on a *road of light

no clear *definition yet, but the ink flows free
I let the keyboard *click for lines to be

many twists and turns, and my words are in place
such a shock, for a poem's born with a yucky face
