Sunday Muse #191

 Hey everyone, it's me, Fireblossom, with your weekly picture prompt. 

First, a couple of business matters. One, there will be no Sunday Muse next weekend for a Christmas break. It will return again on New Year's Day.  Second, this will be my final prompt here at Muse. I want to concentrate on my weekly Word List at my blog. Thanks to Carrie for inviting me to be here and letting me post here once a month. I will still be here as a participant.

Now, your prompt! This week's theme is "cosplay creatures"! You get a choice of any or all of three images to write poetry for. Here are your three pix:






Then just write, link, visit, enjoy!

Have fun everyone!

The Sunday Muse #189

 Hello Musers, it's me, Shay/Fireblossom with your weekly picture poetry prompt. I am filling in for Carrie this time in order to give her a chance to cook the tree and decorate the dinner, and other sundry holiday pursuits. Therefore, there will just be one image. When it is my official week again I will do three as per usual on mine. 


Okay, goggle at the pic, write something, link, visit, enjoy! And thank you for being part of the Muse!

Sunday Muse #186 -- "Illusion"

 Hello friends, its me, Fireblossom, with your monthlies. As usual when it's my week, you get a choice of any--or all--of three themed images to write for. 

This time the theme is "illusion." None of the three pictures are what they appear to be. However, you needn't incorporate that into your poem--you can take them at face value or any other way they inspire you. The only caveat is, no hate. Did I even need to say that to you fine Musers?

Okay, here they are, with a note as to why they suit the theme!


This is not Louise Brooks, star of the silent screen. It's contemporary actress Mischa Barton doing a bang-up impersonation.


This is not a girl. He's a male tiktoker called jessit0.


This is not a guy. She's a drag king (name not given.) Looking good!

Write, link, visit, have fun! And if you don't include an image (qbit!), please let us know which you're writing for. :-)

Greetings Friends! We are glad to see you! You know the drill, but I will bore you with it anyway:

*Ponder the image & the meaning of life...

*Write with a pen, pencil or maybe keypad...

*Link, share, & visit others

but above all else

HAVE FUN EVERYONE!

 It's me, Fireblossom, with a seasonal selection for you. 

string theory

No pumpkins, no hayrides. 

plague nurse

No, this week you get a choice of writing for any or all of these three rather unnerving images.

Happy Halloween and.....unpleasant dreams!

 Hello friends, it's me, Fireblossom, with a slightly different Muse prompt for your poetry-writing joy. 



This time, you get a choice of any of three images!



They are themed, that is to say, similar, which is to say, my Pinterest is loaded with them.



All three images are of actors but who they are is not important. Let the image you like best speak to you and write a poem from that. If you do not include the image with your post--I'm looking at you, qbit!--at least let us know which one you wrote for. Then link, read, comment, and win at life! Enjoy.

Good morning Muse friends!  I am so glad you joined us this week because I have something wonderful to share with you today!   One of our amazing Muse hosts, Shay AKA Fireblossom, has just published a new book of poetry called Gypsy Bird Cage.  You can click on the title to see it on Amazon.  As most of you already know, her poetry is absolutely amazing and the world has been waiting, so I am utterly delighted to share this news with you all!   My copy is on the way! 

Well in the spirit of celebration lets get started everyone; write/share/visit others/ and get inspired by amazing published poets!

Have fun everyone!

Having dropped the ball last week due to wonky internet service, I am back this week with an image to stir the angels and devils of your creativity. Perhaps dolly is crying because you wrote a haiku. Haiku gives dolly a sad. Take a peek, write, post, link, go visit others, have fun! --Shay

We have a special Muse for you this week everyone! We have 2 Geminis in the house this month, Shay & Carrie (Moi) and so we both are going to provide an image in honor of our zodiac sign. Doesn’t that sound cool?  To top it off today is Shay’s birthday!  Happy Birthday my friend! You can go with either image at the end of this post or be super fancy and do both!

Have double the fun this week everyone!

Now for a little extra something from the Gemini Gals:

I am proud to share Gemini-ness with Carrie! It's like there are four of us in the room, with double twins!



If you meet this woman on the road, cross the street. She'll either talk about her dog or complain about haiku.


I work in a library that is surrounded by gardens and woods.  I am a lucky old lady!


Now below is your musing material, double double toil and trouble.  We look forward to reading your amazing words!
