As part of James & Oneg’s Summer Writing Challenge Extravaganza, I was tagged in the Tag You’re It! Challenge.*

Pick a Vocal community and tag/nominate another writer to write a poem or 100-word micro fic about it BUT you only have 15 minutes to write!

I was tagged with the MOTIVATION community by Judey Kalchik.

PUSH

Music, move, motivational force

On desire

The right stuff

Inspiring, incitement, instigation

Vision, visual-wish

A catalyst

The stimulus

Incentive, interest, impetus

Oh reason

New encouragement

Angle, action, actuation

Like get-up and go

♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Writer's notes: Motivation comes from within and the spark or reasoning for behavior or acting. The above is my acoustic poem. Judey tagged me!

More about the challenge can be found below.

And here is Judey Kalchik's challenge

And- what the heck- here's my unofficial #BookReviewHaiku Challenge information. You could do that and enter it in the new Book Community, couldn't you? Just add the #bookreviewhaiku tag to the subtitle, if you think of it.

More information on that can be found below:

Appreciate you stopping by to read! Thank you!

ALOHA!
