Journal entry:
Today’s poem is in answer to the prompts at NaPoWriMo and Poetic Asides. You should visit those sites for inspiration.
Long Suffering
I have suffered much
Because I continued in
Loving you beyond
The time you were in love with
Me, but I persist no more.
I have hidden all
The pictures and there were no
Things to remind me,
Because you let scavengers
Take all my valuables.
I had to build my
Life again from nothing, and
Recovery has
Taken me a number of
Years and so many dollars.
Sometimes I wish you
Great heaping disaster, but
I know forgiveness
Frees me of the bitterness,
So I try to wish you well.
I believe there is
Eventual justice for
People such as you,
But as for me, happiness
Has come again finally.

I am grateful:
1. I do not have to work outside because the pollen is awful.
2. My chiropractor worked with me today.
3. I stopped to find out what the Sheriff’s department was doing.
4. I am brave enough to ask questions of authority figures nowadays.
5. I was able to reach Jeremy this afternoon.
I have had a reasonably good Wednesday. I hope your day exceeded your expectations. If you have not already done some creative work, I encourage you to do it now. I find it makes the day complete in a way nothing else can do. You try it and see if it does not give you great satisfaction.
As a prompt, write about a product that did not preform as you thought it ought. Give an explanation of your remedy to the situation. You could do this in a poem, story, or journal entry. If you do use the prompt, please leave a link to your work in the comments below.
