Bone, the moderator of Three Word Wednesday says: each week, I post some words. People write things using the words. Then they comment here. Feel free to join in this energetic meme!
These are the current prompt words:
Empty
Highway
Ignored
Tonight, Poetry Super Highway begins its annual free-for-all. For 24 hours you can download free poetry books by some really fine poets. You'll probably recognize some of the names!
♥
I empty April into
the basin of yesterdays
ignore its rapid passing
panic grass dots the highway
a blurred and gray horizon
lures me toward tomorrow

oh i love that opening line.... just love it... and i have bookmarked poetry superhighway and will delve into that later on tonight.....thanks for the heads up!!!!
I agree with paisley! Emptying April into a basin of yesterdays is a very strong image.
Also the highway luring you toward tomorrow.
Great writing.
BTW, I have already dowloaded your collection. I'm waiting for school to be out to read it.
I think this is one of your best ever! The images are so unique and vivid!
Thanks for the link!
A unique voice. And yes, that first line was brilliant.
It conjures up such a powerful image.
This is such a lovely word picture and your opening lines are awesome!
panic grass dots...what a phrase!
It sure feels good to be back!
I'm at a loss for words. Loved you work.
From the opening line to the lure of tomorrow... great job!
I LOVED "I empty April into
the basin of yesterdays." Rapid indeed!
I felt like I was being tossed into the future.
I have an image of some mystic Indian pouring April into a huge "bottomless"? basin!
Just lovely!

Wishing you a horizon that gradually becomes unblurred and less gray :)
I just realized April's rapid passing! Nice one....
Great opening!
Thanks for the heads-up on the poetry downloads. Will check it out!
Blessings,

Dear Sue,
You are quick! I love the way your mind works....
Happy May!
May all your snows be melted and may butterflies and bees find your dandelions.
Beautiful.

Past, present, future came to mind when I read those lines. You're gifted to share your thoughts with words lined in this manner.
Sue, love your images. You always color my mind with new and wonderful thoughts.

Your words are beautifully woven, and so true. Where does the time go?
