As part of my life rhythm for 2025 and 2026, I have designated Wednesdays and Sundays as Creative writing days here on LILLIE-PUT. It is time for me to get back to the writing process which I have too long neglected.

So each Wednesday and each Sunday I will be using a prompt either from one of my “Writer’s Remedy” jars or from WordPress. This week I have chosen to practice a new form of poetry called an OVI. This is a form introduced to me by RONOVANWRITES.

You can click the link above to check out the style requirements of the poem if you want to join in. Ronovan’s inspiration subject for our poetry this week is the word: RESPECT

MAKING ROOM

The threads are spinning fast today.

Options increase hiding the Way

Of life. It’s a high price to pay.

We cling to woven forms not ours.

“This land, this cash, this right is mine!”

We shout, we scream, we cry, we whine,

We don’ t know destiny refined?

Chances at brotherhood are lost.

I hear a voice cry, “Please! Respect!

My weaving should  have an effect!”

It’s One whose love we should reflect.

We’re pieces of His tapestry.

So, in my thread,  I’m making room.

For those who’d come out from the gloom

To spin at the Great Weaver’s loom.

Just parts of the Weaver’s story.
