one deep breath poetry: spice

blink
wink
breathe in
break the spell
shake in an odd spice
let stale old choices fall away

It's good fun every once in a while to turn things upside down...or inside out. Try a new route home, switch toothpaste brands, write in green ink for a while. Maybe even write a poem in a fibonacci sequence instead of a haiku.

Yes life is always better for the spice.... Good fib.

Break the spell indeed! I agree- even taking a different way home from work can lead to all sorts of adventures!
Wonderful fib! Variety is the spice of life!

I like this - "let stale old choices fall away". Great idea!

'let stale old choices fall away' Yes, yes, yes. You're so right. I am hunting for my green pen right now...

You are so right, use an odd spice, or different foods. Try something new, take a chance.

Life is better when you shake in something spicy! Great advice :)

Megan,
You've so aptly fib-ed the old adage; "variety is the spice of life."
Good job. I liked your style.
