The Friday Fling Has Indoor Winter Fun!
Friday Fling #157 December 2nd 2011
We were gonna do a Fling about “Making Stuff out of Snow – snowmen, igloos, snow angels – anything as long as the basic material is snow!” but someone beat us to it on the topic suggestion list on the Crew page, LOL, which was fine. We just moved our winter fun indoors!
What is your favorite thing(s) to do indoors in wintertime? If you live in the southern or far western climes, you don’t HAVE to come in out of the cold. But it’s still winter. So what do you like to do indoors this time of year? …that you can discuss in a family blog.
Michelle, our resident Queen of Poetry Formats, suggested yet another format I have never heard of, the “Tri-Fall.” She describes it as “three six line stanzas and the rhyme scheme of ABC abc abc and the syllable count for each stanza is 6/3/8,6/3/8.” Here’s an example from ShadowPoetry.com:
destiny’s starway*
the stillness of the night
brings a calm
erasing the sun’s illusion…
worry is out of sight
with a psalm
replacing the day’s confusion
looking up to the hills
mists divide
providing celestial parting…
I know if heaven wills
I’ll reside
in holy lands God is charting
how can I wish for more
when day ends
with Luna to guide my starway…
following as before night
descends while
backdropping heaven’s highway
*starway: path of stars

Hello (((Bob))) It’s cold here in Ohio… Brrrrrr and I plan to stay indoors when it’s so cold outside! :love:
This is by my good friend, Sonnets (Lori)… Thank you, Lori and it is always a pleasure to read what you have.
I love listening to Christmas music while I do plenty of baking inside my home during the holiday winter season. This song always gets me all teary eyed every time I listen to this.
CPC regulars might be getting tired of seeing this one reposted, I’ve posted it on a few other CPC challenges. It was my first poem in many years, first posted back in Feb. 2007 as a response to a picture challenge on a MySpace community poetry site called The Poetic Corner. I’ll let it reflect another favorite winter activity LOL
Here’s the corrected version of my Tri-Fall “Winter Writarama” Click on it to enlarge!
