A word prompt to get your creativity flowing this weekend. How you use the prompt is up to you. Write a piece of flash fiction, a poem, a chapter for your novel…anything you like. Or take the challenge below – there are no prizes – it’s not a competition but rather a fun writing exercise. If you want to share what you come up with, please leave a link to it in the comments.
Thank you, Sammi! So impossible to resist, I’ve done this in the airport!
I do not know why this post won’t allow comments! I can’t seem to fix the issue on the mobile version. If I figure it out… Fixed…
Name It
We give a name to
Each notable event
To mark the periods
In our life
I wonder what
Today’s epoch
Will be called
When I think back
A Dalectable Life 
Dear Dale,
Love this. A name for each epoch. I’m sure it will be a good name when you look back on this one. Love the picture. Glad you had time to play. Enjoy your time off.
Shalom and lotsa hugs,
Rochelle

Q,
I’m so glad you decided to go on this adventure. Your whole self needs it more than you know, and you’ll realize it by . . oh . . this evening! LOL.
Epoch is one of those words I never really knew the definition to, believe it or not. It’s strange too, since I knew of it, heard it and read it but yet . . I guess sometimes the word is just enough. But you used it so well in this. As. Per.
Bon Voyage good thing!
MUAH!

B,
So’m I. You are right. My whole self needs to let go a li’l bit. I’m thinking, once the clothes are hung up and stashed in drawers and my butt is sitting in the hittub and I have some form of cocktail in my hand… Yep!
I admit to not using it myself in English, even if I knew its meaning (they use it more in French, so… So do I, then – it’ll be part of the private lessons)
Gracias Sweet thing!
MWAH!!

It’s what you’ve put off for too long, but hey . . all that matter is that the time has come. And you are going to take full advantage of it. Butler or no butler, LOL.
The Bon always reminded me of the sweets . . Bon Bons. Of course, it always comes back to that, even though I don’t possess the same sweet tooth I used to.
MUAH!

Cool message in your poem. You made me wonder what my today’s epoch will be. It certainly can’t be that I saved $9 on a can of coffee?
