"For today’s prompt, take the phrase "Wanting (blank)," replace the blank with a word or phrase, make the new phrase the title of your poem, and then, write your poem. Possible titles could include: "Wanting Less Leftovers," "Wanting More Leftovers," "Wanting All the Leftovers," "Wanting a Second Chance at Creating Possible Titles," and/or "Wanting to Leave Making Titles Up to You."


Meditation allows me to imagine
I am walking through umbrellaed trees,
diamonds of sunlight sparkle branches

So much braver to take chances
on a virtual stroll where I can examine
nature's beauty bestowed on me.

Choose your path whether mountains or seas.
What do you see that nature enhances–
colors of flowers that you can share in.

Imagine a painting of trees with diamond branches.
