Writing Exercises
This morning during a writing class we practiced what happened when you write with your non-dominate hand. The topic was, Childhood Home, and here’s what I came up with.
There are so many memories associated with living in the Mohave Dessert.
Cool tile floor under bare feet in the morning
Sunburnt afternoons in the sand pits of constructed forts
Hours spent swinging from tree branches in the sultry weather of an early spring day
The waning summer captured in an evening of piano tinkling, my long hair trailing over the keys, candlelight flickering in the distance. The vision of my parents waltzing gently in the background as the stars began to poke their heads out of the giant velvet blanket of the sky.
