Creative Writing - Connected

Connect Acrostic

Chatter away with folks

Other than being alone

Never make an effort to isolate yourself

Nobody wants to be alone forever

Everyone could do with some extra communication

Cuppa T's, biscuits at the ready

Tell me your story

I Connect...

not by joining the dots but by taking a deep breath, opening the door, and striking up a conversation with my neighbour.

"Weathers been terrible"

"Supposed to warm up by Thursday"

"You're gardens looking lovely already"

"Must remember to buy plant pots!"

"Oh well, see you later. Have a nice day"

"Hmmm", I think to myself, "life seems a little brighter now, time to get on with my day. Must phone mam later.

Connected Poem - Under the Morning Fog

Under the morning fog

Perched on the balcony

Coffee mist slowly invigorating

Press the magic button

The laptop springs to life

She'll be here soon

Bright screen

Skype on

What time is it in Sydney?

There you are!

G'Day mate!

Did I call too early?

Ups & downs

Highs & lows

We've so much to catch up on

Under the morning fog.

Mindful Poem - Connected Poetry

As summer draws to it's natural close

I notice the leaves gliding on the wind

With scarf on and jacket zipped

I take a walk down to the river

On a bench dedicated to some unknown soul

I sit and watch the currents rise and fall

Watching the leaves land on the water

Each one a silent passing thought
