    Esther Chilton offers the word "birds" for this week's Writing Prompts: https://estherchilton.co.uk/2025/07/...cription_popup

    I like the way those birds can fly,
    but I prefer the ground. That’s why
    I do not envy wings, though I
    would sing the way some do.

    A cat runs down the street
    hides at the corner,
    one whisker is visible
    the whisker twitches
    the cat is laughing!

    The screen won’t load.
    I stare.
    It stares back.
    We both pretend
    to know what's wrong.

    AND ALSO FOR YOU

    Inspiration is for me
    the Spirit guiding me to see
    and smiling when I do what He
    has told me I should do.

    Even with the wind unwinding,
    even with the darkness binding
    faith asserting truth is finding
    life beyond the grave.

    Thank you, tailor!

    Given voice choice words are sending
    blessings, curses. Hearts are rending
    or uplifted. May true mending
    words come speedily.

    Every thought needs careful weeding.
    Every deed needs Spirit leading.
    Every word is somewhere seeding
    what is kind or what is not.

    Enjoyed both

    Employed both words:

    let heav'n rejoice

    a kind voice
    with gentle words
    the melodious song of birds
    let heav'n rejoice
