| The Bug, 2004 |
Well, we finally had a scorcher here in Xenia, Ohio so I am thinking about a cool refreshing dip (of ice cream, really, but it could be swimming). I want to hear your thoughts about the subject of swimming – in a pool, in debt, in a sea of emotion… Whatever suits your fancy. Then come back here & link up. If you think about it, link to the actual post with the poem, not just your whole blog. It’s less confusing that way. Thanks!
P.S. I'm hoping Mr. Linky magically appears at some point? If not, please shoot me an email with instructions. Thanks!

Thanks!
You look like a cute little bug in that photo! Swimming .. nice topic.
ReplyDeleteOoh, that's a hard one for me.
ReplyDeleteAm I first? Maybe? Anyway, I'm early for once! Yay me!

(in case Mr. Linky isn't doing his job!)
May I cheat with one I wrote a few weeks ago?
ReplyDeleteWell, I went all over the place with this one and I'm still not happy with it.
ReplyDeleteSwimming... my favorite thing! Thanks for the memories...
ReplyDeleteI came up with random associations for this one.
ReplyDeleteIt's weird what the mind can throw up into the light when presented with the opportunity....
Thank you kindly for the prompt :)
I can't comment on this blog at work - what a pain! Anyway, I'm up with my own effort, which I'm not too sure about...
ReplyDeleteAm delighted to be splashing down with my first Poetry Jam poem.
ReplyDeleteThis isn't a new one, but it might be appropriate.
ReplyDeleteSeems funny riding a jar of poetical jam around the world but I'm aboard.
ReplyDeleteOoops. I linked to a poem I wrote about a childhood experience. However, even though I'm decades older than the woman pictured in the prompt, I can fake being in my 30's or 40's...
ReplyDeleteBrian---I loved your comment on Fireblossom's post (about felt-board bible stories). Hilarious.
i am late but mine will be up in the morning...ha, thanks Sioux
ReplyDeleteIs Brian late? I'm later!
ReplyDeleteMy first effort on Poetry Jam (found this site thanks to a link from Brian). Kind of a swimming theme (well, it does include water anyway). Hope it will suffice today. Thanks for the opportunity! ~Karis
ReplyDeleteI'm even later and I didn't know how to put my name alongside the water post ones....now I'm a week off.
