May your life have poetry and your poetry, life…
Three Line Thursday remains a lovely addition to the blog here at Ink In Thirds. I would like to encourage you to spread the word and enter weekly. I will be including some of the poems from the weekly contributions in upcoming issues of Ink In Thirds Magazine, so if you’d like a chance to be published: participate weekly. Also, if you have a Twitter handle include it below your submission.
Happy writing!
If you don’t know what #TLT is all about here are the cliff notes:
- Write something that will move us! Inspired by the photo above.
- DO NOT include the prompt word.
- Brevity is key.
- What can you say, convey, express in only three lines? Can you paint a visual picture with only words? Tell an entire story that begs to be read? Use your imagination.
- No titles. Let’s keep it about the words.
- 10 words max per line. 3 lines.
- Post your poem in the comments and comment on others. Have fun!
This week’s prompt: Book

This book, magic there contained
Each page a door to myriad imaginings
Bonus! Suitable projectiles for catching crooks

I learned at eight how to get lost in books
yet now when I climb inside I cannot sit still
it is you I see in the spaces between words

your words inspire
into my heart they transform
nightmares into dreams

With each page turn
I climb deeper and deeper
Into a stranger’s life

Is there anything more intimate
than glazing the last page
with a thin layer of heart?

My first novel about hugging broccoli and tennis,
Was never going to be a bestseller,
But I did get some backhanded compliments.

This page, this page—always this page, where my eyes
drift shut and the book falls, closed for another night.
One day I will set it aside—choose another story.

Yup, I’ve certainly been there. Life’s just too short for some books when others are waiting…

Ah, yes Ewan – some, as with other situations, I try to persevere with but sometimes just have to move on.

It’s true…there was my novel, floating…my glasses too…
but my body had completely disappeared. Amazing.
It made shaving a nightmare, I can tell you.
