My Five Hobbies
I have five hobbies that keep me freshly enthusiastic and alive.
Painting is incredible; when I get tired of it, I buy new paints.
I recently bought some gorgeous glitter paints.
That got me back into my art studio fast!
Another hobby I have is cartooning.
All of my paintings begin as cartoons.
I have been drawing since I was four.
When I tire of this, I turn to another hobby. I have four more.
My third hobby is word games. I play scrabble-like games every day.
Not for an hour, but between four and six hours.
I am completely excited about words.
Always have been.
Hobby number four is poetry.
I learned as many types of poetry as I could from www.poetrysoup.com
They tell you how to create every type – diminished hexaverse, senryu, haiku.
I use them as a reference.
If I am out of poem ideas I turn to one of my favorite websites.
www.pinterest.com which has marvelous pictures of a variety of things.
I find ten that I like and save them, writing down a name for each.
Then I create a poem for each of them. This also keeps me freshly enthusiastic!
