#vss365 #prompt for 9 June 2026 is #deadfall
An impassable tangle in the woods, a primitive trap, but why settle for the standard definition? Listen to the word, feel it. At one time, I lived in a #deadfall— but that is a story for another time…
Truly and beautifully dark. Well done.
Mother origin
The source flowing into life
Infinite breathing
Inhale and know her full truth
Exhale and know our purpose

#vss365 #prompt for 11 June 2026 is #forbidden
#forbidden is a heavy word, but its character depends on what is forbidden and by whom. From the garden of Eden to the dictates of conscience, even who you may love. When to obey and when to rebel…that is the question. The choice is yours.
#vss365 #prompt for 8 June is #mother
“The hand that rocks the cradle rules the world.” William Ross Wallace. That’s true for most of us, the fortunate. A mother’s love is a force of nature. But it is not so simple. Mother has a multitude of faces. Show us #mother.
Powerful. Well done
Another name for
God, in the hearts and mouths of
All children, mother.

I told my #mother
long ago
the I would not
become like her:
My children
would not have
the burden of expectation
on their shoulders
generations change
and we must
become more flexible
she laments the future

#vss365 #prompt for 10 June 2026 is #dawn
To paraphrase Shelley (Ode to the West Wind) if nightfall comes can dawn be far behind? On the other hand, George Romero sees it differently in his Dawn of the Dead (1978). So many ways to see the #dawn. What’s yours?
