Prompted

I haven't posted in awhile, so I thought I'd let readers know I'm still around and even—when I can—still writing. I recently stumbled upon (using StumbleUpon!) an interesting site called One Word. Each week, they present one word and you have 60 seconds to write whatever that word inspires. You can then save the result, post it, or just move on. As someone who sometimes needs a bit of a jolt to get writing, I've found it very stimulating. Here's a recent draft:

Gentle

gentle the flow
of water under and around
the leaves on the surface
just ruffled by a gentle
breath of wind gentle as
a sun ray on a winter
afternoon

I hope to find some time to develop this soon. Comments as always are welcome.
