All of those creatures get due respect, Tailor.
This week Esther offers "giving" for her Writing Prompts: https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/12/...ng-prompts-95/
I am living, that's why I will be
someone giving back life given me.
There are more ways than one
to give life. See? The sun
keeps on giving and giving for free.
Enjoyed :)

mist rises as tiny foglets, and drifts
away as the morning sun caresses
rain soaked blackberries and grasses
giving back that which was given

three deer
two deer are conversing
below my window
then pause to nibble
the grass with a third

I like those deer, Tailor, and how the rain, sun, blackberries and grasses are all constantly giving back what was given.
This week Esther offers "family" as the Writing Prompt: https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/12/...ng-prompts-96/
During Christmas our family is fine.
There are some who perpetually whine.
There are some full of joy.
How they giggle, annoy
all the whiners, but family is fine.
Family dynamics... got'ta love 'em :) Enjoyed :)
Family
there's diversity in my family tree
English, Scot, a smidge of Irish to a degree
and Russian, once removed, and some Swiss
and lest I be remiss
my Savior and Heavenly parents
to whom I lovingly bend my knee

Merry Christmas to all !!!
Amen. We are sons of God and our Heavenly parents.
Esther offers "new beginnings" for this week's writing prompts: https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/12/...ng-prompts-97/
New beginnings? Yes. Today.
Right now. Right here. Beware the way
some doubters fear to speak, yet say,
"Perhaps. Maybe tomorrow."
Enjoyed :) "Mañana (Is Soon Enough For Me)"... https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=...3&opi=89978449

Happy new year with new beginnings, Tailor!
Esther offers "snow" for this week's prompt. https://estherchilton.co.uk/2026/01/...ng-prompts-98/
Ah! I know on white days there is snow.
It is bright in the light. I will go
out to play in the stuff
till enough is enough,
go inside where I'll hide from the snow.
Thanx, back at'cha... Enjoyed :)
Snow and I have an adversarial relationship ofttimes...
abominable
some like the abominable white snow
not I... oh, it's pretty for a short time
once it sticks and accumulates a pace
wonder leads to bother of the stuff

I agree that when it comes to snow "wonder leads to bother".
This week's Esther's prompt word is "red": https://estherchilton.co.uk/2026/01/...ng-prompts-99/
Lovely Light, Bright and True
Whether red, maybe blue, lovely green,
it is light. It is bright and serene,
but I wonder if you
know that light can be true?
Well, I do and it's true. I have seen.
Almost cacianesque... Enjoyed :) Back later...

I've been rejected as a donor for being iron deficient as well.
Esther offers "shapes" for this week's Writing Prompts: https://estherchilton.co.uk/2026/01/...g-prompts-100/
The Shock Of Shapes
I'm shocked that there are shapes at all
for me to touch or see.
I'm grateful, too, for me and you,
two shapes, two ways to be.
My first time(s) being rejected last month and this month; I'vebeendonating for years... taking supplements now for another try in February :)
Enjoyed :) Out and about today so later for my attempt.
