No, I haven’t gone to the other side. I love my Wordless Wednesdays, and I have enough pictures to fill many Wednesdays to come…especially nature and art. I’ve been truly blessed this summer.
However, along with it, I’d like to start a new tradition. GIVE ME YOUR WORDS!
In Poetry Therapy, I teach using Poetry as a medium to assist others in healing. They don’t have to write poetry…just enjoy it. Writing is part of the therapy, but students only need to be able to write a postcard or a letter to feel the magical healing powers.
There is an exercise we do that has really cool words we might not hear everyday. We might not have heard them in a really long time. Or, we might have heard them from our parents, grandparents, neighbors, or crazy aunts. Words like: bamboozle, gargantuan, whackadoodle.
I NEED THEM for exercises for my clients…HERE’s YOUR CHANCE!
I can’t wait to see what you come up with. PLEASE? Even if it’s only one word.
a most gracious thank you,
~ Marie :0)

ok thanks that’s nice of you 🙂
hope you don’t mind me saying, your background blog colour is real nice, but it’s hard to read the words, especially when you do each persons in a different colour 🙂
I hope the others join in again.

I appreciate the feedback. I will have to figure that out quickly.
I want everyone to be read. I will try to get that white again.
Thanks again. I will have them ping back to you. Is it okay
if I copy your poem into the post as well? Then they can see the collaborative part…Let me know. Thanks again for the feedback!

Thank you!. But the problem I have is that the font still comes out small and it’s on the highest font! Any suggestions?
I LOVE the gray of your blog and it seems to hold colors well. I’m thinking for collaborations the white is best at this point.

🙂 your blog has upgrade customs (?) so I think WordPress can tell you how to change the fonts and sizes; I only have the basic frrebie blog 🙂
I do love grey myself; but y’see I have the inset pnel where I write in white; the black stands out well against it, and so do most other colours; maybe it would be best to try out different colours in preview;
If you’re not already paying though, there is a wp place here https://wordpress.com/themes/ where you can click to specify which blogs have 3 column layout and flexible header;
good luck 🙂
