I missed my blog yesterday so I decided I'd do it then write today's. My mind's been a bit wonky of late. Crazy vivid dreams have left my thoughts askew and gathering them has proven to be more than a little difficult. At some point, I might have to journal more of these realistic dreams that stick with me upon awakening. In any case, here we go...

8/24 Prompt: When I was in grade school I would walk to and from school in all kinds of weather. I always enjoyed walking in the rain. Write about walking in the rain.

Summer Rain

rain falls, dampening sunbaked lands
a welcome respite from summer's drought
Earth drinks deeply of this gift from the skies above
animals emerge to wash weeks of dust from fur and feather
a handful of hardy humans throw their arms to the heavens
in thanks for this sweet blessing so needed
walking in the rainfall's refreshment
and inhaling the sneeze-scented petrichor.

8/25 Prompt Day 3207: “Out of suffering have emerged the strongest souls; the most massive characters are seared with scars.” Khalil Gibran - Let this quote inspire you blog entry.

Life

It is the way of life
to weed out the weak ones
Only the strong survive
a life with no failure
is no life at all
our scars our ultimate prize
