One Deep Breath-Containers
spiral bound pages~
receptacle of thoughts
inscribed on blue lines
~
daily ruminations
warmly embraced
under cardboard covers
Last summer I started a practice of writing "morning pages," three free-written pages each day where my consciousness streams out onto the paper. These spiral notebooks contain those pages, all those messy morning thoughts safely tucked away between brightly colored paper covers.

What a good choice for a container! You have such pretty handwriting, Becca.
I've just got The Artist's Way from the library. I'll be interested to read about the morning pages.
love it, love it, love it! (i should say THEM)
wonderfully written and the photo really makes the haiku more personal :-)
well written and clever ; ) But, I didn't see an image.
Great choice for the "container" theme! The notebooks are wonderful, as are your haiku.
Great idea and haiku!! In my experience they stack up quickly!
Excellent idea - notebooks as containers.
I didn't think about paper containers! Shoud have, I have been doing morning pages a long time!!
Great poems
I've been keeping journals for many years now. I don't think that I could go without journaling...it has become a habit of sorts. My journals are filled with many things...thoughts, dreams, goals, wishes, heartache...and stories. I wonder, how many miles of ink I have used so that my heart can speak...
Wonderful interpretation of containers .... loved seeing your notebooks! Wonderful poetry to match, Becca. Much peace, JP
I like this idea of notebooks as containers. Morning pages are sounding like something I need to embrace.
Love this as a container. And am inspired, maybe over winter break I can get into the habit.
What a great idea. Love the haiku!
Very creative Becca and I really enjoyed your "writer's life." I want to buy a copy soon! xxoo
