The Last Prompts

You may notice that the last three prompts for this cycle are suggested by us at One Single Impression. We are thinking that we are at the end of this journey and perhaps it is time for others to take over the management of this blog. But perhaps it is time for this blog to retire — we simply are not sure. Now there is Facebook (which we are not using to its full potential), Google+ (which we are not using at all), and other new sites and technologies that we honestly do not have the energy to engage. If anyone is interested in leading this group, e-mail Sandy or Andrée at the address on the right. Bless all of you and your talents. We have come to know you personally even if we may not even type to you or you to us. We are friends on Facebook and G+ and don’t want to lose those friendships. So let us know, and we shall move on through the next seven prompts!

 

Please be sure to e-mail your submission and any artwork to us by Friday before the posted date!

We Have Added A Prompt for September!

We have added one more prompt to bring us through the entire month of September. The new prompt for September 23 - 29, 2012 is HALCYON. We would like to thank Geraldine of My Poetic Path for this prompt. We have updated the prompt page, the calendar and the sidebar links. We hope you are all having a peaceful summer. Thank you for continuing to support and contribute to One Single Impression.

Sandy and Andrée

* Halcyon (adj.)  1540s, in halcyon dayes (L. alcyonei dies, Gk. alkyonides hemerai), 14 days of calm weather at the winter solstice, when a mythical bird (identified with the kingfisher) was said to breed in a nest floating on calm seas. From halcyon (n.), late 14c., from L. halcyon, from Gk. halkyon, variant (perhaps a misspelling) of alkyon "kingfisher," from hals "sea, salt" (see halo-) + kyon "conceiving," prp. of kyein "to conceive," lit. "to swell," from PIE root *keue- "to swell." Identified in mythology with Halcyone, daughter of Aeolus, who when widowed threw herself into the sea and became a kingfisher.

* From dictionary.com: sapid \SAP-id\, adjective: 1. Having taste or flavor, especially having a strong pleasant flavor. 2. Agreeable to the mind; to one's liking. Chemistry can concentrate the sapid and odorous elements of the peach and the bitter almond into a transparent fluid -- David William Cheever, "Tobacco", The Atlantic, August 1860 I've raved about the elegant and earthy lobster-and-truffle sausage, the sapid sea bass with coarse salt poached in lobster oil, and the indescribably complex and delectable ballottine of lamb stuffed with ground veal, sweet-breads and truffles. -- James Villas, "Why Taillevent thrives", Town & Country, March 1, 1998 Sapid comes from Latin sapidus, "savory," from sapere, "to taste."

I wish I had Sandy's skills. She works full time, contributes regularly to several blogs in administrative positions (including this one), writes her own blogs, comments on other blogs, and takes care of her family. Sandy collected all of the wonderful suggestions that you sent for prompts and somehow managed to get it down to these choices. She has to watch the "old" prompts to make sure there isn't too much duplication (even though we have no duplication rule). Then she has to make sure names and URLs are correct. Then she sends it to me and crosses her fingers and says her prayers that I get it done on time.

Well, I got it done on time. Barely. I know how dedicated you all are to your art and I hope you have sufficient time to prepare and write. This blog has blossomed so beautifully that it makes me sing. All of you are so awesome!

* Vellicate:

• 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"
