Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Inspiration: 22 of 174

To Inspire My thoughts swirl- My imagination floats- The wind carries silence, which lends an ear. Rain driblets dapple across the stony landscape, smacking the rock with intention and might. Leaves from tip-top branches sway and spit dew droplets upon my shoulders- drip, trickle, drip. Warmth glows on my back, as the sun sh...
Creative Writing > Reflections Reflections: Rudeness in today's society: 9 of 66

Rude people are everywhere. It takes no more than a quick stroll through the mall or even the parking lot to encounter insurmountable rudeness. What does being rude or hurried solve? I see no harm in waiting a few extra minutes to let an elder go ahead of me at the checkout line in the grocery store. Nor do I see why common ...

Bath Time Brightly colored cups floated on the surface like hungry open-mouthed piranhas. Brown and orange wash cloths- saturated with tepid water, gracefully danced like sea weed.

Inexpensive Back Pain Treatments Back pain can strike at any moment. But for someone who suffers from chronic back pain, the spans of time between spasms are only less painful.

Perspective is a strange, but powerful thing. Worldviews vary from place to place, and even more from person to person. Perspective makes us special, for we each have our own. On the other hand, it can poison our thoughts with prejudices and stereotypes. Our perspective is altered and affected by each and every event through...

Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Childhood memories: 28 of 111

I was an angelic child, with a demon-like streak. Now, I can look back and see the two distinct sides of my personality. One being the sweet, girly side that always did what she was told, the other was ornery, and always on the run. My curious nature brought me home on several occasions covered in mud, blood or both. I am a ...
Creative Writing > Humor Humor: Childhood: 25 of 78

I began school early. I was only 5 when I entered the first grade. Fundamentally, I was among peers, but physically, I was behind. Naturally, occasions would come up where my difference in age was extremely apparent. I can remember children in my kindergarten class losing their first teeth during lunch, or hearing them talk ...
