Storms (prompt of the day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

Electricity flickered as windows of the room began to darken. Winds picked up speed, howling and rustling branches to fill the silence. The air, once muggy and heavy, suddenly felt eerily light as the pressure dropped. Storms were on the way, and it wasn’t good....

Messenger (Prompt of the Day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

Ruby the Old said to Ruby the Young

“Don’t give up yet, our song isn’t sung.

There’s more to the story;

beyond this heartbreak, and fear.

Know purpose and love;

will bring light to this tear.

The struggles of life,

will make us quite wise.

Earn badges of courage.

Diamonds, of eyes.”...

Magic Theme Poem (prompt of the day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

Fabric of air,

Shimmering wave.

Barely noticeable,

To undeserving eyes.


Behind the curtain,

Influencing thought.

Manipulating reality,

Ways we behave.


Magic? Maybe.

Or reality, not understood.

Except by those,

Who see....

Friendship is as light,

As mid-day sun of summer.

Appreciated,

By only those who see it.

In contrast of winter depths....

Elegy of Hope (prompt of the day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

When we meet again,

The heavens will sing.

Light like the dawn,

Flying high, angel wings.


Laughing of times,

Barely significant, on Earth.

Discovering far more,

How God knows, our true worth.


Yes together we’ll be,

Free of pain, only light.

One with Alpha, and Omega,

And all time, in our sight....

Beautiful Heather (Prompt of the Day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

Grey or green,

Somewhere between.

Soft and subtle,

A little muddled.

Comfort and calm,

Somewhat of a balm.

In-line with the weather,

Beautiful heather.


(Prompt of the day: Write a poem where the opening line is about a color you are wearing.)...

After the Storm

Hobby Writer

1 min read

After the storm,

There’s a deep sense of peace.

Worlds are washed clean,

Carrying new senses, of ease.


While it won’t last too long,

New storms always pop up.

So we cherish the moment,

Fresh stillness, our cup....

All in a Golden Afternoon (prompt of the day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

All in a golden afternoon,

under the skies of cloudless blue.

Purple flowers pop up across the fields,

where waves of green hold true.


Songs of old ways, red cardinals sing,

At once the blazed, orange sun.

Imagined bleak darkness, black as night,

Leeched grey, as if moon, hath won.


But silver strands, will once again reflect,

The dawn of yellow sunlight.

Where all of the colors, round the...

Rolling Thunder (prompt of the day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

Rolling thunder,

Wanders along,

Like birds in song.

Causing wonder . . .


Was it random?

Or carefully planned,

To bless all the land,

Rain in tandem.


Calling ahead,

That heaven,

May pour.


Reviving the dead,

From seven,

‘Til four....

Truth (prompt of the day)

Hobby Writer

1 min read

It easier to tell,

someone the truth,

when you can’t see,

their face.


For if we see,

the reaction,

our words are clipped short,

with lies by omission.


Telling the whole truth,

is not light work.

It’s our own emotion,

that processes.


Yet we can confess,

when the room is devoid.

Appearing alone with our

thoughts, yet knowing

One’s presence....
