Happy Birthday! I am new and I love the idea of writing ✍️ from a prompt. I shall be writing β€œWhat the Moon asks of the Sea.”

Thank you very much. πŸ–€I will ensure to tag you once completed.

Happiest birthday to you! I'm so so grateful to have found you on here..for months now, your words and your poetry have moved me. You're a gem and you words are the greatest gift. Hope you feel loved today and every day <3

Your beautiful, imagery-rich prose made me pause and think about what month holds my happiest memories. That's the gift of good writing. It quietly invites us into our own lives. Happy birthday! <3

This requires multiple responses. First this read as a poem to me. It really did. Then I went back and read it again. I could write separate pieces on almost all of it. Maybe I even will. I'm not participating yet, directly.

Happiest of birthdays to you.

These prompts are a fantastic idea.

I’ve already circled one to borrow from you.

Poetry as the format should be interesting.

I’m no poet, though I try.

And I will…

Just not now. Works calls and this deserves my full attention.

Enjoy your day!

Happy Birthday, Jo! 🎈

I'll be 53 on July 31st. And you are so correct about changes... especially physical changes. They seemed to happen out of no where once I turned 50. The emotional growth, also. I had always been abused in one way or another since childhood but once I turned 50, it was as if I could finally "see." It was all very bizarre and still is. πŸ˜‚

Enjoy your day! 🎊🧁

Thank you! I’m feeling that too. I’ve just started dating again for the first time in years, and it feels different this time around. Better. Happy birthday for the 31st. 🀍
