Welcome back Ladies and Gentlemen, Artists, Poets, Writers,
Authors, Dreamers, Friends and Family; Welcome EVERYONE to Nadaness In Motion's
monthly picture-prompt writing challenge Takhayyal.
Arabic for Imagine, Takhayyal is a challenge for writers of all
ages and genres; a place to spark creativity and explore new genres.
I
hope you are all staying safe and taking all necessary precautions. The world
is beginning to open and realize that we will have to live with this corona
virus but it's important to remember that we need to take care of our health no
more than ever.
As
the world opens up, people, myself included, feel like Summer 2020 will be a
different experience. That said, I always look at pictures I took on my phone
to transport me to places.
That's why when I saw this picture posted by friend, author, and
poet Erin Al Mehairi, I immediately asked for it and decided it would be the
writing prompt for June.
It spoke me to and I hope you find it inspiring!
So without
further ado, meet the June writing prompt…

Let's IMAGINE!
I found a new place today
ReplyDeleteOne to where I can run and hide
You will never find me here
And I just know I'll be able to relax
Away from the bad thoughts
Away from the naysayers
Nothing will hurt me here
And nothing can keep me away from here
Accept me into this fortress forever
Let me lie in the sun by day
And roam the mysterious trees by night
Help me become the beautiful creature I was meant to be
