Hello, Poppy! Thanks again for these lovely little prompts -- I'm tremendously grateful to have found them, as they've been a huge impetus in getting me to create more regularly.

Revving up the old brain. I'll be back.
Help, I'm so sleep deprived, I thought the prompts were January, February, March, April, May and June 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 The music notes formed a CHORDS, forming PARALLELS in the NEWSPAPER. I watched it slither like a SERPENT and FALL off the page.
Yay!! I've been waiting for this, I could use a small break between projects!! Thanks for always setting these up Poppy, I appreciate you!! 💚
Ooh😊… let the poems roll✅
