The sun is cheering me up and coaxing out the rhododendrons! #flowers #bloomscrolling #macrophoto

A close up photo I took of a cluster of large, delicate, white rhododendron flowers, opening up like a chorus of otherworldly trumpets. The blurred background shows the many yellow and green leaves in addition to other flower clusters from the bush.

This photo has only some basic filter edits with absolutely no AI. I never use AI tools.

Masks She had blue skin, And so did he. He kept it hid And so did she. They searched for blue Their whole life through, Then passed right by - And never knew. by Shel Silverstein

A picture of the poem and illustration Masks by Shel Silverstein. Two people are holding giant masks and facing away from one another in a simple black and white sketch.

The text reads:

Masks

She had blue skin,
And so did he.
He kept it hid
And so did she.
They searched for blue
Their whole life through,
Then passed right by -
And never knew.

"asked for nothing and got it ... asked for everything and got it" #BornBattleReady #Moxie #Poetry #WritingCommunity

This is a text graphic I designed in Canva using their tools and stock images. No AI - I never use AI tools.

The background is a very blurry impression of snow and branches, with faint impressions of a branch, a dead leaf, and a green leaf behind the text.

The text is mostly green in a casual font, with the words Spindly, branch, and crumbling in brown, and the word green in a brighter green.

The text is a poem I wrote. The spacing is a bit wild to indicate pauses. In case you are using an e-reader, I will use periods in the below transcript to indicate those same pauses.

Transcript:

Moxie:

Spindly branch. Stitched in ice.
Nursing. last leaves.
Shy. Crumbling. Leaf.
Asked for nothing. And got it.
Assertive. Green. Leaf.
Asked for everything. And got it.
I know. Which leaf. I am.

The photo of Renee I used as reference

The face of a joyful Renee Nicole Good at the beach. She is smiling with a wide open mouth, her white skin shining in the sun on the sides with her face in partial shadow, her blond hair pulled back, and she is wearing dark-rimmed glasses and a sweater. Sand, sea, and sky are visible behind.

The best way I could think to honour this woman I have never met was to try to share her joy, which her wife describes as sparkle. I'm no professional artist, but I hope this helps spread her sparkle! #ArtAsWitness #JusticeForReneeGood #ReneeNicoleGood

A photo of a black fineliner and teal pencil crayon sketch of Renee Nicole Good, smiling with a wide open mouth at the beach. No edits other than cropping.

Renee Nicole Good was murdered by the US government's secret police force ("ice").

I drew this with my limited skills to connect with her joy, and hopefully this will help others to connect with her joy. As weird as it sounds, I don't believe outrage alone will not be enough to make the change we want, because it its direction is pain. If we want a more loving society, we must have joy at the core of our mission. Renée's joy was taken, let's create more joy in her memory, and let that be the fuel for our outrage to aim it at a loving future, not the other way around. 😊

My family has a monthly creative prompt, this month is Joy, and I thought about how joy can be found in many places if we can accept it. #Poetry #WritingCommunity #PoetrySky #Joy

A simple text graphic I made in Canva. I never use AI tools.

It is a poem I wrote on a dark green background, in simple white text with three exceptions. Joy and the word wait are glowing, Joy in yellow and wait in mint. The phrase joy's served on a plate is a gradient, pale to medium green. My signature and site are at the bottom.

It reads:

I stepped in some joy
It stuck to my sole
But before it would cloy
I halted my stroll

I blushed a deep rose
And started to scuff
In mortified throes
To get rid of that stuff

Everyone told me
Joy's served on a plate
With biscuits and tea
So I just have to wait?

Happy Diwali! Wishing you all a season full of joy, connection, gratitude, renewal, love, and light!

I created this graphic in Canva, using the stock art available on their site. i never use AI art or tools. The background is a picture of a diya (a short round base full of oil with a wick, similar to a candle), made of reddish ceramic, lit, and sitting on a wooden table with a black backdrop. A golden mandala is coming out from the diya. The message in bold, bright yellow font is "Happy Diwali". In the corner, I have signed the piece with "By Fiery Sun Song FluxOfMind.ca

Do you ever wish you were tiny and could adventure along terrain like this? #Macrophotography #Fotografie #NaturePhotography #Rock #Moss #AutumnVibes

A cool-coloured filtered macrophoto I took of the surface of a cracked, textured, sunbleached boulder with a few small 'bushes' of various mosses growing from some of the cracks. A blurred plant behind the boulder, turning orange as autumn progresses, helps to show the scale of the photo, because it appears to be giant.

A macrophoto I took of the surface of a cracked, textured, sunbleached boulder with a few small 'bushes' of various mosses growing from some of the cracks. Unlike the other photo, this one is not filtered with cool colours, but instead features a range of greys framing the greens, reds, and yellows of the moss. Also, this one barely shows the plant in the background, focusing more on the boulder.

If we let them, our passed loved ones can help us face our battles head-on while enjoying the view❤️ #BornBattleReady #Poetry #BlueSkyOfGrief #BSPP43 #Courage #Shroud

I designed the background in Canva using their tools and stock images (no AI) to look like a rough painting of a rope bridge in the clouds among tall tree-covered mountains.

The text is plain and white, and reads:

Wobbly steps o'er
bridge in the clouds,
my view obscured
by shroud of fear

Reaching out
to hold your hand
I grasp at air
but feel you near

Your voice is here
in planks that creak
and hold me safe
o'er valley deep

Your joy is here
in mountain wind
that wakes my will
from fretful sleep

Your wisdom here;
leaf-painted scene
you pull the veil
my vision clear

The grief that binds
and hides and pines
makes me forget
that you're still here

🤣🤣 love this It reminds me of this comic I recently came across from @thejenkinscomic.bsky.social

This is a simple comic with black lines and some grey on white. It appears to be a man with bushy hair and a beard wearing a toga, across 4 panels.
Panel 1: sitting on the couch, he hears someone yell "Orion! There's a package here for you"
Panel 2: He opens the package and says, "Oh sweet! My new belt!"
Panel 3: He puts the belt on, frowning, and says, "Meh, it's not as good as I was expecting."
Panel 4: Typing on his phone, he says, "I'll give it three stars."

This comic is signed "TheJenkinsComic", which is tagged in this post.

I felt up to a tiny bit of exploring today and I came across this tiny drop of sap, shining like a crystal. Nature is so magical ✨️ #Macrophotography #ThickTrunkThursday #Trees #Photography #Fotografie #Bomen #Nature #TreeResin

I took this photo near where I live. It is a close-up of part of a pale grey tree trunk, with some blurred evergreen trees and grey sky in the background along the left. The grey bark has many small reddish-brown indentations, but centrally, there is a sort of reddish-brown canyon of rings that appear to have been carved by years of erosion from tree sap. In the picture, though, there is just one, small, drop of clear, shiny sap at the entrance to the bark canyon. The crystalline drop of sap is the centre piece of this photo.

The graves in this forest Are numerous as trees Souls here they don't rest They live as they please There's no place more alive Than these woods of death Where restless bones strive To match the trees' breath #OurPoetryX @ourpoetryx.bsky.social #RestlessBones #Poetry #SpookyVibes #Haunted

I designed the background in Canva (no AI) to look like blurred, painted shadowy woods filled with graves. All images are stock photos from Canva.

The text is plain and mint green.

The text reads:

The graves in this forest
Are numerous as trees

Souls here they don't rest
They live as they please

There's no place more alive
Than these woods of death

Where restless bones strive
To match the trees' breath

SOMETHING SACRED SURVIVED: Life plans collapsed when health abruptly lapsed... (Click to see full graphic). #BornBattleReady #Poetry #Rhyme #Sacred #Coffee #Disability #ChronicIllness #Loss

I designed the background in Canva (no AI) to be dark brown with coffee beans and a white steaming mug of coffee at the bottom of the image (stock photo). The graphic is much longer than it is wide.

The text in the foreground is plain and white, other than the title, the word 'coffee', and the line 'but one ritual remains entwined', which are in a scrawled font that resembles chalk. The title has what looks at first glance like a brown shadow, but it has different text.

The text reads:

Something Sacred Survived
(Shadow text reads: Coffee helps me survive)

Life plans collapsed when health abruptly lapsed
Had pined for vacation not full hibernation
Appointments, injections, and painful subjections -
Devoting days to healing is completely unappealing
Dejected dependence unseats independence
Beloved ambition seems mere apparition
Though new pleasures discovered until I'm properly recovered
My existence is redefined but one ritual remains entwined
Sacred in solitude with memories imbued
Each sip takes me back to the life I now lack
Advancing my education Concealing inebriation
And for every occupation arming me with motivation
Sunrise sparks anticipation for routine caffeine fixation
My tenebrous searing saviour teeming with warm blanket flavour
My morning mug reminds me life may not be all behind me
Silently, each sip I savour...
is much more than flavour

Needed to change one word, but otherwise, it's the same.

I designed the background in Canva with stock images (no AI) to look like a coming disaster. There are the faint impressions of storms and waves, with a somber standing human silhouette holding an umbrella. The colours are mostly greys.

The text is plain and white, except the words 'crowned' and 'criminality', which are yellow and mint and cursive.

The text reads:

Daylight calamity fills our reality
Brazen depravity breeds brutality
Confidentiality now only formality
Such that insanity is a practicality

Only profanity paints the totality
of inhumanity become generality
Need vitality to fight eventuality
Of grim duality as a finality

No neutrality can become morality
Let's make commonality our modality
and shun the mentality
of Crowned criminality

Wrote this for LAST WEEK's #BattleBornPoetry, but then forgot to post it. My health and mind are a little unpredictable right now. Anyway, I thought I'd share it anyway. Here is: Choice Avoidance #Poetry

I designed the background in Canva (no AI). It is all teal-shaded, with a fortress on a hill under a clear sky.

The text is plain and white, except the word 'choices', which is yellowish-orange and cursive.

The text reads:

Bastion built for biding time,
Bulwark to hide behind
Seldom deciding
On anything
So
Nothing hurts
And nothing happens
Choices are challenging
Chafing frustration
So fail to try and
Hide in my
Bastion

Mine grew big but then shrunk back down. I had big intentions, but my poems don't always listen 😅 #MPPrompt #Poem #Grow #Pain #Embodiment #BodyMindConnection

I designed the background in Canva with their stock images (I never use AI tools) to make a darkened composite of cactus needles.

The text in the foreground is white and plain, with the exception of the words 'distraction' and 'one', which are both yellowish-orange and in a cursive font for emphasis.

It reads:

Pricked
my spine
with just
a punch line
Sought solace
in deep distraction
Ignored, my pain rebelled
causing a catastrophic reaction
While my mind sought elsewhere
One thorn turned into an iron maiden
Overwhelmed with verdant poison ivy
Any medicine would be quickly over-laden

So I stopped.

Sat with my pain.

The thorns
abated
to just
one.

I made this and am pretty happy with how it turned out. If there is interest, I could post a video of using the rake in the sand. It is so calming 😌 #DIY #Zen #Craft #Sand #ZenGarden #Ocean

A collage of different photo angles of a project I made. It's a rectangular tray, painted line sand and ocean with shells on the edge, filled with blue sand, green stones, and tiny seaglass, with a simple wooden rake. There is a fake beach with a house on it to push the sand onto. This is one of a series of unique zen sand trays I have been making as a hobby. When you use the rake to push the sand, every time it both hides and reveals different treasures in the sand. It is very relaxing.

Changed today's poem a bit and made it into a text graphic

The background is a golden sunset overlaid with faint impressions of morning bedlam for schoolchildren, created using stock photos from canva.

The black text has a transparent white square behind it for clarity.

It reads:

beep! beep! beep!
robed bodies bolt from bedrooms -
the morning sibling battles
begin with bathroom squabbles,
then bickering about the bacon
and brawling with backpacks
before barreling onto the bus
abode's morning bedlam over
for now
