I could be under the blankets watching my favorite Netflix show, but instead I am sitting on Zoom experiencing one of my favorite slices of life - time with my TeachWrite friends.
I have been enjoying the daily prompts provided by my fellow writer-friend Leigh Anne Eck. Today's prompt is "under the blankets." This was perfect for this time of year because I love my fuzzy blanket sheets. As always, I tend to think in poetry.
Under the blankets
is where I love to be
warm and cozy in the grip of a story.
Caught between turning pages
and the dreams of slumber.
my eyes grow heavy.
I hang onto the words
until they start to blur
then lay the book beside me.
Peacefully, I slip into sleep
wrapped in the embrace
of my warm fuzzy blankets.
