Prompt 157: Vellicate


Stacey of The Odd Inkwell brings us this week's prompt, vellicate, which means to

tickle: touch (a body part) lightly so as to excite the surface nerves and cause uneasiness, laughter, or spasmodic movements

  • pinch: irritate as if by a nip, pinch, or tear; "smooth surfaces can vellicate the teeth"; "the pain is as if sharp points pinch your back"
Above is Stacey's poem/image.

Prompt 155: Incandescent

Thanks to Tammie Lee of Beauty Flows for this week's prompt, incandescent. Here are her artwork and poem:


her spirit told her
go slow

in doing so the world became
vital and exquisite

she left a shimmering trail as she wandered through life

for eons people followed
her incandescent paths
they found wonders they never knew
gems amongst wee tiny flowers
bugs that flew
shrooms that grew

a leisurely pace
reveals treasures

Prompt 154: Humility

Thanks to Robert of Daily Athens for this week's prompt, humility. Here are his poem and image:




hold on, hold on tight
life does not move back, ever
become load, lift up


Robert says: "This 'picture' was inspired by looking at a mother carrying her child upon her shoulders. Being a young father myself, the responsibility and work surely provided a heavy load, yet I have to admit, have lifted me up like nothing else.

'
And yes, Matth. 11:28-30 was in my mind as well.
