weekly prompt #1
Hold my head up high
Convince myself to enter
Take a breath and smile
(I don’t like to make a splash, prefer to blend in with the crowd. Having the attention on me makes me uncomfortable. Here is my vulnerable “grand” entrance)
The sky jumps upwards -
transforms the black into blue.
Takes all day to fall.
Graduation entrances are a HUGE deal! Thanks for sharing Mirjam, the Hellokoo, the music and the background! Awesome 👏 🎓
Make a grand entrance
In pearls and strawberry red
Paparazzi pop
💃🏻📸
commencement both end
and beginning of new life
pomp and circumstance
Walking into the commencement celebration at university in a cap and gown and a flower lei was a very grand entrance, here is the music

Like air, I enter
Invisible, palpable
Silent but intense
Like Naomi, I also shy away from flash entrances, but I always leave a mark. Haha! And that’s how I hope it would be with this group...
I shout hello loud
the birds koo back as they fly
the clouds hold my word
Entrances scare me
But I will lift up my chin
Smile for Hellokoo
So excited to be part of this group!
take a leap of faith
jumping into the unknown
will poetry come?
Have hit a brick wall with creativity. I fluctuate between giving up or just being patient with myself…..
