Up Past Her Bedtime

Hi Paula! Thank you! It is amazing how time does fly when we are carried away when reading a book! Hope all is well. Blessings to you!

Hi Linda! Thank you so much. I think this prompt spoke to so many of us as we remembered the joy of reading - even past our bedtimes! Sending you blessings of joy!

Thank you so much, Eve. I loved your prompt that produced so many wonderful poems. As a little girl I would get lost in books. This brought back so many memories! Thank you for the journey back in time, for your wonderful theme and for your placement! Sending you blessings of joy and my gratitude!

Amen! Thank you! Blessings!

Hi Sara! I so appreciate your lovely feedback. Love that you picked up on the role of magical starlight in this magical scene of a little girl staying up past her bedtime to read! The picture really enchanted me. Hope you are staying warm in this cold spell! Blessings and hugs!

Greetings my friend! Thank you so much! For such a simple format it took quite a bit of time to figure out how to incorporate so many of the details in so few words. So grateful for your response. Sending you warm blessings, Lasaad!

Thank you so much, Paige! I was surprised at how long it took to write these five lines sifting through the important details of the picture and figuring out how to express in a couple of words things like the candle, the book and the reading nook. Eventually had to omit the snow falling outside the window and the little demon! Blessings!

Thank you, Kim! I just love the picture prompt. Blessings! Best wishes to you for the contest. Enjoyed your entry very much! Blessings!

Greetings Cay! Thank you so much! I really felt the soft, cozy warmth of the scene especially with the snow falling outside the window. So happy that came across. I wish I could have incorporated the snow in one of the lines! Oh well! Take care! Hugs and blessings!
