Hello Poetteers, You can find the origins of the idea here . I just finished reading the sequel of SLA, ICE LIKE FIRE. I gave it 5 stars. I've read other people don't like it as much as the first. I loved it the same. In ILF, the action starts a little later than in SLA. As for what I'm watching, stationary videos of planner to journal decorating. I don't really have any songs stuck in my head this week. OctPoWriMo *Prompt: write a love letter between two inanimate objects. Dear Book, There is a fondness I have for you. You don't have to stay in one place. You're story has multiple pages. You get a tenderness from your readers. They ruffle your pages. They laugh and cry with you. You aren't ignored and you don't catch the eyes of those uninterested. Love, Picture Frame *** Dear Picture Frame, I'll keep your letter tucked in between my pages. I may be able to tell a story with all my pages but you, my friend, can tell a story in a few words and in th...

A Step Toward Falling

Hello Poetteers, Book Review A Step Toward Falling by Cammie McGovern - 5 stars. The story is about not judging people from their appearance and of redemption. It has several point of views. One is of someone who is disabled and the other is of those looking in as an outsider. It's about how both kinds of people deal with with other people having different disabilities. There is romance in the story but it doesn't take away from the story. OctPoWriMo Build bridges of relationships and of friendships of communication with those you want to be with instead of wondering how it would be. Burn the bridges that don't take you anywhere Make connections that move you. Don't make yesterday, today and tomorrow of worry and thoughts of what ifs of regret make it something good something to remember. Thank you, Fida

Monday Blessings - Feelin' Bittersweet

Hello Poetteers, Family - you realize it's not complete with one person missing after they have been with you. Fall - the weather may drain you but there is a sweetness that comes with the season. Night - everything falls quiet. There is silence and you heart final feels at peace. It means you can be yourself when you pray. It also means you can finally sleep. Noise - it's quiet for so long when it comes back you know it means happiness. OctPoWriMo Airports bittersweet with hellos and goodbyes can't come or leave without tears don't dare to say the opposite even if you feel strong going strong hope it's only a few tears instead of an overwhelming feeling just pray and have faith everything will be alright. Side note: I probably would have done the whole alphabet but then I came to the letter K and didn't know what to put. Thank you, Fida

Book Review and Poem

Hello Poetteers, Snow like Ashes review I gave this book 5 stars. I can't wait to read Ice Like Fire! Before I get into the review I would like to caution you that it may have minor spoilers to Snow Like Ashes and Throne of Glass. First of, I like the unique touch that each season is a kingdom. Second, Snow Like Ashes reminds me of Throne of Glass. I saw a post of if you like this then try this. (I would share it if I could find it). Now I see why. While the Throne of Glass mentions work camps Snow like Ashes shows you into the work camps. I love both Mather and Theron. Theron is like Dorian in ways that they are both princes and despise their fathers. Both Celaena and Meria are sneaky and amazing with their powers while still showing us their flaws. OctPoWriMo In a spark an idea is started When it rains there is cleansing for your body The sound of the ocean calms you the sound of wind brings you to nature. Thank you, Fida

Hello Poetteers, You can find the origins of the idea here . I just finished reading Snow Like Ashes . I will hopefully have a review up on Friday. As for what I'm watching, still planner videos. I gave it a try. Loving I'm loving the feeling I get after publishing a new book! And the feeling of doing more with my poetry. Add HER TREASURES on Goodreads . Buy a copy on Amazon . Check out my merch store . Listening to The two songs that have been stuck in my head for days are Wildest Dreams by Taylor Swift and Drag Me Down by One Direction. Thinking about The autumn weather. There are sweet things like the crunch and color of leaves, the crisp air, cuddles and hot drinks that I love about it. Yet in reality the cold in the air is draining me. OctPoWriMo I've been meaning to participate this year but I've only written in response to a couple prompts. What matters most is if I was brave brave enough to face my fears enough to know my fears is not something to hide behind bu...

OctPoWriMo Day 28

Hello readers, Exhaustion Rain No plans Accidentally make the others sleep in be late You realize the urge to go the hunger for knowledge to keep busy to find what you love do what you love the hunger keeps you up keeps you from falling asleep wakes you up in the middle of the night until you do what you need to do until you do what you want to do Or maybe it's just thirst wakes you up in the middle of the night Dry throat makes you uncomfortable until you do something for it Honey Lemon Tea Peppermint helps the throat Hot chocolate helps to fall asleep. Love, Fida # Poetteers

OctPoWriMo Day 27

Hello readers, Cry myself to sleep every night living with insomnia Toss and turn every night wonder why I have insomnia Too many thoughts feelings and voices in my mind as my head hits the pillow I need to learn to quiet them down way before bedtime; Those precious moments when you drift to sleep dream and you don't wake until your alarm finally rested I'm happy, content can have a busy day don't have to feel lazy just for being tired. Love, Fida # Poetteers

OctPoWriMo Day 26

Fears are something you end up liking I'm afraid of heights and I love hiking nostalgic for an airplane ride Used to be afraid of the dark but now it's what keeps me comfortable Used to be so scared of dogs run away walk away today for the first time I didn't change my pace move away It came to sniff me I didn't care wasn't scared I think after getting any pet you are more understanding their language, their love. Love, Fida # Poetteers

OctPoWriMo Day 25

It's a magical moment to experience miracles. Miracles big and small they are in everyday life the way rocks form how trees grow face the ground or sky The home we have the air we breathe Being able to feel God's presence. Love, Fida # Poetteers

OctPoWriMo Day 24

Hello readers, There is no such thing as guilty pleasures they are simply pleasures you shouldn't hide what you love Everyone has their own fashion sense has their signature dance move. If you do hide it it isn't good and you should take it out of your life. Love, Fida # Poetteers

OctPoWriMo Day 22

Hello Poetteers, A journey an opportunity to do something spontaneous something you always wanted have someone hold you accountable give you a deadline The nerves the adrenaline you are excited enough to think about it have a nervous breakdown but for once you are too excited to over think you book a time and place You practice and practice the night comes and you hear your name For once it's not something to be scared about you are excited, happy the audience is too they know you That's one thing different in all other times they don't know you and you don't know the subject this time you do You get to the stage and see people smiling not looking like they are bored You hold the mic and start to read transported to that world you give emotion in your voice for emphasis not on your face for fear You finish and leave that world to see people clapping and loving it loving you Throughout the night people come to you saying it was good you touched me I'm glad you did th...

OctPoWriMo Day 21

Hello Poetteers, On daybreak I see the purity in everything including me I will do more than run around I will leave a handprint at least a fingerprint I will leave a memory an impression on the world at least one person one place at a time By night comes I see I gave a new love. *I hope I can do this with my poetry collections . I really would appreciate if you check it out if you haven't already. Thank you,

OctPoWriMo Day 20

Hello Poetteers, Two months ago today I published my third poetry collection, HUGS & KISSES . Also, check out my fundraising page for NaNoWriMo! And finally, OctPoWriMo >> Rather be have all the chances chasing the sun It's more than what you think written word wanting to be spoken verses decorated seeing the world In the afterlight. /// It's late you're late I don't want to rush I'm tired of having to hurry give my heart a break Don't forget I never do let me know it's going to be okay Cuz even if the stars and moon collide the positive vibes are still in the air centuries have passed it's going to be okay.
