Way back in February, Laura Shovan formed a private Facebook group to celebrate her birthday month. It's her Annual Poetry Project! She has given a challenge to everyone each year for a few years, but this time we shared poems to a prompt on FB. An article was presented and ten words selected from it became the prompt.
We have continued to write, or at least some have. This month it was my turn to select the article and the ten words. I chose this article from The Guardian, feeling it fit the summer's beginning well.
Here are the ten words if you'd like to write your own poem: internal, frustrated, storytelling, direction, craft, territory, happy, robots, natural, stuff
Here is my poem. Once again you can tell I'm excited about those special moments that mean summer.

| The swing at my former home. No swing now, but an old pew. Still conversations, just no swinging. |
