May God bless both of us as we grow as writers together!


"I Write in 2019"  has me reviewing your item today! *Wink*

Using the prompt "Certain things had moved in the night", you wrote;

Certain things had moved in the night.
There was a crack of branches
and the cry of trees
heavy with burls, full-laden with buds.
Dryads gathered...

You wrote more but I think the part about dreams takes away from the beauty of your poem.

The words I have included here work so well together and do justice to the prompt, as well.

You do need a space before the word full-laden. I added it in the above rendition.

I must admit, I had to google burls and dryads but both connect to the trees.

Do dreams connect with dryads? If so, there is a connection I missed.

Even so, I suggest changing the title and taking out the last part. Stopping with the dryads gathering...or maybe awakening seems more poignant to me.

I really love the idea: trees, branches breaking, burls, dryads. A cool way to use the prompt.
