Inspired by Molly and her exploration of paths, I got to thinking about this photo I snapped of one of the running paths near my home.
Speaking of running...I'm away for the weekend participating in the Ascona-Locarno 5K run. Wish me luck*! I will do my best to visit all my Poetry Friday folks when I get back.
And speaking of brushstrokes, picking up where I left off last week, here are some more of my #scbwiArtober2023.
I highly recommend you check out the 'real' artist using this hashtag on IG...wow. Inspiring.

Enjoy this week's Poetry Friday Roundup at Catherine's place: Reading to the Core.
(And join ME here next week when I host...bring your dancing shoes!)
I saw what you did there. Happy running this weekend! I've been spending time with the leaves here before they all come down. I always miss them so much.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Linda! Keep your be-leaf that the leaves will come back in spring! ;)
DeleteYou ARE a real artist! I've had moon on my. mind, so no surprise I love your moon offering especially! And "happy trees, happy me" is such a warm ending to your poem. Good luck on your run!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Irene! I thought of you and the pull of your moon greatness when I made my moon picture. :)
DeleteI love this SO much! Happy running and I'll be on the lookout for all kinds of small happies...whether they are Bob Ross-able or not!
ReplyDeleteYay! Thank you, Mary Lee! Happies are around us, we just need to look for them!
DeleteI love thinking of footfalls as brushstrokes, beautiful! Good luck on your 5K!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Tracey! My footfalls are more skilled than my brushstrokes. :)
DeleteI love a great, green path, Bridget. For the possibilities! Enjoy your run!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Patricia! The possibilities of paths taken and not taken keep life interesting. :)
DeleteBridget, what a lovely metaphor. I love the brushstrokes of your trip through the woods. Beautiful word choice throughout.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Denise! Running helps me to see words in a new way. :)
DeleteGood luck on your 5K! I love the path poem, and now I'm thinking that "path" could be a good OLW. Hmmm. Thanks for the inspiration.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Karen! My 5K went well and I'm happy with my time. Yes, path is a great idea for OLW. :)
DeleteYour canvas "foot fall" is keeping you busy this month–fun sketches! Good luck with your run and I'm looking forward to the dance next week… thanks Bridget!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Michelle! My sketches are a humbling lesson on persevering despite lack of talent! Ha! :)
DeleteSo fun to read this post. I love the idea filling the canvas of oyur journey.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Jone! I love that every journey, through the woods or to figure out how to create a picture from a prompt is filled with possibilities and growth.
DeleteGood luck in your race, Bridget! Your poem made me smile this afternoon.
ReplyDeleteThanks, Susan! Your comment made me smile today! Yay! :)
DeleteI love your footfalls as brushstrokes and that lovely rhyming ending. Enjoy those runs through the trees! Your sketches are wonderful, and your creativity is inspiring!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Molly for YOUR inspiration and encouragement. :)
DeleteWhat a gorgeous place to run. No wonder it inspired you! Hope the 5K went well!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Catherine! I'm very happy with the results of my 5K - mostly that I did it! :)
