A-Zed year two....

So, I conveniently timed my return to the blogosphere with the annual A-Z blogging challenge that runs the month of April. The A-Z challenge is a wonderful way to drive yourself insane---- believe me, there are worse ways of going 'round the bend. Basically, you have 26 letters and 26 days (sans Sundays)... compose a blog a day, centered around its respective letter of the alphabet, ending with 'Z' on April 30th.

The blogs vary in theme as widely as the bloggers who post them. Last year, I had no theme, so my posts were all over the place and became more frustratingly maddening the closer I got to 'Z'. But, I met some wonderful bloggers along the way, who definitely made the challenge worthwhile.

This year, I don't know if I'll have time to come up with a theme, but I'm hoping to be a bit more focused than last year....

Anyone else going to take the maddening journey along the alphabet???

    Hi, A to Z'er! I'm along for the ride as well, trying to check out as many blogs as I can. :)

    I'm going to follow along on your journey and I hope you'll do the same for mine! This is my first year trying A to Z. I only just heard of it (on Goodreads) a few days prior to the start, so I am happy to have caught it in time! Anyway, I'll be checking back to hold you accountable, and maybe you can do the same for me!

    Best of luck, fellow blogger!

A-Z Reflections, year 4....

A-Z blogging challenge for 2014 has come and gone, seemingly without my realizing it. And, though I fell behind once or twice toward the end, I finished this year's challenge right on time. Really, I can't believe it's already over. I feel like I just finished my post for letter A... Year 4, for this blogger, was a far cry from the tortured state of despondency that was most of  Year 3 -- I'll not mention the irony of this year's focus on death being easier to blog about than last year's foray into supernatural creatures, we'll leave that for my therapy sessions *ahem* As always, A-Z brought with it, not only 26 days of unbridled and far-reaching knowledge (disguised as entertaining and thought-provoking blog-posts), but a chance to connect with new faces while reconnecting with familiar faces--who had perhaps drifted away--from A-Z's past.  I am always amazed by the ingenuity and inspiration that comes from lumping a couple thousand folk...

Bitter Honey

Weaving dreams of beguiling gold, a future's price for happiness. What secrets do you, determined, hold? asks the summer wind's soft caress. A guarded name, a hidden hope. Spinning wheels clutching time, grasping straw that falls away, What dreams may come, we soon may find, won't recall at end of day. A cherished life, a memory lost.

Battle Storm...

Storm's coming, war's brewing, rolling clouds choke the light, Cannon's rumble, bodies tumble, exploding stars steal the night. The heavens clap, the battle's snap, sinking deep the wounded fall, The lightning's spark, the thunder's hawk, drinking in the warring pall. Soldiers crawl, the ranks sprawl, beneath the wall of death, Eyes clenched tight, in teeth-bared fight, bequeathed their final breath.
